The nitrogen‐fixing fern <i>Azolla</i> has a complex microbiome characterized by varying degrees of cophylogenetic signal

These results show that the Azolla symbiotic community is complex and features members at potentially different stages of symbiosis evolution, further supporting the utility of the Azolla microcosm as a system for studying the evolution of symbioses.
