Culturomics from field-grown crop plants using dilution-to-extinction, two-step library preparation and amplicon sequencing. Culturomics approaches have advanced microbial research by enabling the high-throughput isolation and characterization of a broader range of bacterial taxa, including some previously considered unculturable. Here, we present the testing and optimization of a protocol for isolating and identifying hundreds of cultivable microbes from field-grown plants. 2, record 1, English, - field%2Dgrown%20crop
