Plant-associated microbes have significant potential to enhance agricultural production, for example, by enhancing plant resistance to pathogens and pests. Efforts to identify beneficial microbial strains typically focus on a narrow range of desirable plant traits; however, microbial symbionts can have complex effects on plant phenotypes, including susceptibility and resistance to different classes of plant antagonists.
