The bacterial signature of Leptospermum scoparium (Mānuka) reveals core and accessory communities with bioactive properties

Investigates the structure and bioactivity of endophytic bacteria in mānuka by using a combination of cultivation-independent (DGGE) and dependent approaches. Determines i) the community structure, and diversity of mānuka endophytic bacteria,(ii) the main factors influencing the composition of mānuka endophytic bacteria, and (iii) whether endophytic bacteria had bioactive potential.
