Abstract
This field experiment assessed the impact of 37 years of contrasting water stress history on wheat's microbial response at two developmental stages under contemporary water stress. Amplicon sequencing revealed that plant development stage and water stress history were primary factors shaping the microbiome across plant parts under water limitation. Seeds showed divergent microbial communities based on historical conditions, modulated by contemporary environment and genotype. These findings highlight the potential of microbial-based strategies in plant breeding for stress resistance.
