Creative BioMart Microbe has expanded its research support with agricultural microbiome analysis services, providing analytical solutions for researchers investigating microbial communities associated with plants, crops, and agricultural environments. The services are designed to help researchers characterize complex microbial communities and generate data for studies of plant–microbe interactions, soil microbiology, and agricultural ecosystems.

Microorganisms are present throughout agricultural environments, from the soil surrounding plant roots to surfaces of leaves and other plant tissues. Their composition can vary according to plant species, tissue type, environmental conditions, and other factors. Examining these communities can therefore provide researchers with additional information when studying how microorganisms are distributed across different agricultural environments and how microbial community characteristics relate to their research systems.

The services cover rhizosphere microbial community analysis, phyllosphere microbial community analysis, plant endophytes microbial community analysis, and soil microbial community analysis. This range allows researchers to investigate microbial communities from different plant-associated environments and agricultural soils according to the focus of their projects. The resulting data can be used in studies involving microbial diversity, community composition, and broader investigations of plant-associated microbial ecosystems.

To address different analytical requirements, the services include metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, metabolomics, and metaproteomics. These approaches can provide complementary information about microbial communities, from their genetic composition and gene activity to the metabolites and proteins associated with complex microbial systems. Available technologies include amplicon sequencing, RNA-Seq, nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectrometry, with the analytical strategy selected according to project requirements.

Agricultural microbiome projects can also generate large and complex datasets that require further processing and interpretation. In addition to data generation, Creative BioMart Microbe provides additional data analysis and interpretation options to help researchers examine their results in the context of their specific study objectives.

“Agricultural microbiome research often involves multiple sample types and requires researchers to look at microbial communities from different perspectives,” said Linna, the chief marketing staff at Creative BioMart. “By bringing together different analysis methods and technology options, we aim to provide flexible research support that can be adapted to the needs of individual agricultural microbiome projects.”

With expanded analytical capabilities covering plant-associated and soil microbial communities, Creative BioMart Microbe continues to support researchers working to better characterize microbial systems in agricultural research.
