Exploring the functional potential of plant-associated microbiomes in alpine region to enhance cold stress tolerance in plants
Climate change-associated extreme weather events such as early spring frosts have increased in frequency and intensity over the past decades. Cold stress is one of the main limiting factors for fruit crop production worldwide. Plants and their associated microbial communities have developed complex...

Climate change-associated extreme weather events such as early spring frosts have increased in frequency and intensity over the past decades. Cold stress is one of the main limiting factors for fruit crop production worldwide. Plants and their associated microbial communities have developed complex adaptation strategies against cold stress. Plants growing in cold regions, such as alpine regions, are hypothesized to survive cold stress thanks to symbiosis with endophytic microorganisms. However, the structure and function of endophytic microbial communities associated with such plants are poorly understood. Our aim is to taxonomically and functionally characterize the endophytic bacterial communities associated with three wild cold-adapted Rosaceae plants (i.e. Geum montanum, Alchemilla sp., and Dryas octopetala) from alpine region. Plant samples were collected from seven different sites in Italy from two expositions (North and South). The bacterial community structure associated with the flowers, leaves, and roots were characterized using 16S rRNA gene (V5–V7 region) amplicon sequencing to identify potential candidate taxa for cold tolerance. In addition, targeted isolation methods were used to recover culturable psychrotolerant bacterial taxa through a combination of a low nutrient medium (Reasoner's 2A agar), long incubation time (up to 4 weeks) and low temperature (at 4°C).
