A phytobiome consists of a plant (phyto) situated in its specific ecological area (biome), including its environment and the associated communities of organisms which inhabit it. These organisms include all macro- and micro-organisms living in, on, or around the plant including bacteria, archaea, fungi, protists, insects, animals, and other plants. The environment includes the soil, air, and climate. Examples of ecological areas are fields, rangelands, forests.[1] Knowledge of the interactions within a phytobiome can be used to create tools for agriculture, crop management,[2] increased health, preservation, productivity, and sustainability of cropping and forest systems.[3][4]
