This fully funded PhD will investigate how to design plant root microbiomes that support more productive agriculture with fewer chemical inputs and pesticides. The project will examine the chemical rules governing interactions among soil microbes. These insights will then be used to design synthetic microbial communities that are stable, functional, and able to support plant health. The intended outcome is a new generation of reliable biofertilizers, addressing the limitations of products develo...
