Seed Tuber Microbiome is a Predictor of Next-season Potato Vigor

By incorporating time-resolved drone imaging and extensive microbiome analysis, this research develops a robust predictive model informed by microbiome data. It highlights the role of genetic background in influencing potato vigor derived from seed tuber production fields. This model reveals physiological potential by illustrating the variety-specific relationships between soil microbiota and plant performance.
