Host selection is not a universal driver of phyllosphere community assembly among ecologically similar native New Zealand plant species by Anya S. Noble, Jaber Abbaszadeh, Charles K. Lee

“…We targeted mānuka (Leptospermum scoparium) and three neighbouring non-mānuka plant species along an 1800-m transect in a New Zealand native bush to conduct a hypothesis-driven investigation of the relative influence of host species identity and stochastic dispersal on the composition of natural phyllosphere bacterial communities. Results We detected significant correlations between host species identity and mānuka phyllosphere communities that are consistent with a dominant role of host selection in the assembly of the mānuka phyllosphere microbiome. …”
