DescriptionColonization of potato tubers by bacteria.png
English: Possible routes of colonization of potato tubers by bacteria.
Microbiota colonizing the rhizosphere, entering the roots and colonizing the next tuber generation via the stolons, are visualized with a red color. Bacteria present in the mother tuber, passing through the stolons and migrating into the plant as well as into the next generation of tubers are shown in blue.
The soil is the main reservoir for bacteria that colonize potato tubers
Bacteria are recruited from the soil more or less independent of the potato variety
Bacteria might colonize the tubers predominantly from the inside of plants via the stolon
The bacterial microbiota of potato tubers consists of bacteria transmitted from one tuber generation to the next and bacteria recruited from the soil colonize potato plants via the roots
