Scheme of the lettuce field cultivation experiment. Lettuce was either inoculated with B. amyloliquefaciens FZB42 or not treated. Samples of both experiments were drawn at planting (t0), 2 weeks (t1), and 5 weeks (t2) of cultivation from the rhizosphere of the inoculated and non-treated plants. Rhizosphere samples were used for whole community DNA extraction and subsequently for metagenome sequencing. Annotated metagenome reads were used for taxonomic and functional profiling of the microbial communities within the lettuce rhizospheres.
