A simplified synthetic community from the healthy watermelon rhizosphere effectively mitigates <i>Fusarium</i> wilt
Our findings indicate that specific bacterial taxa enriched in the rhizosphere of healthy plants are correlated with enhanced disease resistance. Consequently, the construction and simplification of synthetic communities observed in this study may represent a strategy utilized by plants to mitigate the impact of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum. © 2025 Society of Chemical Industry.
