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

“…Abstract Background A growing body of evidence demonstrates that host-associated microbial communities of plant leaf surfaces (i.e. the phyllosphere) can influence host functional traits. However, it remains unclear whether host selection is a universal driver of phyllosphere community assembly. …”
