Arabidopsis thaliana genes with codon usage bias similar to that of B. amyloliquefaciens are involved in the regulation of A. thaliana adaptation to high calcium stress by B. amyloliquefaciens

These findings highlight the importance of CUB in the interaction between <i>A. thaliana</i> and <i>B. amyloliquefaciens</i> as well as in the adaptation of <i>A. thaliana</i> to high calcium stress. They also show the underlying regulatory role of <i>B. amyloliquefaciens</i>, which could help develop new tactics for improving <i>A. thaliana</i> growth and yield in karst regions. A more elaborate analysis of the value of CUB in the interaction of these two organisms could assist in engineering host- sensitive micro-organism strains and enhance the microbial-based approaches for the improvement of <i>A. thaliana</i> growth and yield in such areas and for managing abiotic stress in crops.
