African Soil Microbiome Mapping
- Accelerate discovery of African Soil Microbiota
- To describe the bacterial, fungal and mycorrhizal fungal taxonomic richness variations across agroecosystems.
- Identify core-microbiome, indicator species, hub taxa of each soil type, geographical location and agroecosystems.
- To determine the ecological processes influencing the distribution of microbial taxa and changes in community structures.
- To develop a statistical predictive model of soil microbial richness and soil fertility and health
- Create a database of African Microbiota
