  • Abstract
    Proficient performance in plants is strongly associated with distinct microbial communities that live in and on their organs. We comment here on the current knowledge of the composition of the foliar microbiome, highlight its importance for plants, ecosystemic functioning, and crop yields, and propose tools and experiments to overcome the current knowledge gap.
