| Summary |
All aerial plant surfaces are inhabited by diverse assemblages of microorganisms. These organisms have profound effects on plant health and thus impact on ecosystem and agricultural functions. Based on proceedidngs from the 8th International Symposium on the microbiology of aerial plant surfaces, held in Oxford 2005 |
