15 Protein families related to host-microbe AND microbe-microbe interactions exhibit strong signatures of positive selection density mean pathogenesis / secretion ~dn/ds pathogenesis / secretion phages ~dn/ds Philipp Muench

17 Conclusions wild and cultivated barley accessions host a taxonomically coherent microbiota whose structure is determined by the host microhabitat and fine-tuned by the host genotype small but statistically significant effect of domestication in the assembly of root-associated microbiota manifested by combinations of bacterial taxa protein families and functional processes relating to pathogenicity, phages and secretion, are significantly enriched in root-associated bacterial taxa evidence that protein families related to the same traits are affected by co-evolutionary arms races with the host as well as with other microbes the combined effect of both, microbe-microbe and host-microbe interactions shapes the differentiation of root-associated microbiota from the surrounding soil
