Whereas, Chthoniobacter flavus, Tepidisphaera mucosa, Acidibacter ferrireducens, Paludibaculum fermentans, and Gaiella occulta had significantly higher abundance in mono-species samples. The strong positive correlations (r values >0.9 and <−0.9, with p-value < 0.05) of bacterial taxa with plant metabolites such as phytane, Friedelan-3-one, gamma-gurjunene, eucalyptol, (−)-globulol and epiglobulol, indicate that these plant metabolites may play crucial roles in the differential bacteriome compositions of these rhizospheres.ConclusionThis study provides new insights into the alterations in the rhizosphere bacteriome across various plantations in the Western Ghats region based on plantation type, plant genera, metabolites, and other soil physiochemical properties.Impact statementPlantation type and sampling location were the factors that significantly influenced the rhizosphere metabolome and microbiome profiles, followed by plant genera and plant type.]]> https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmicb.2026.1775141 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmicb.2026.1775141 <![CDATA[Intralesional microbial community signatures across histopathologic categories of tongue lesions]]> 2026-05-13T00:00:00Z Original Research Karthik MadhavanEmily LanzelShareef M.
