The rhizosphere is a sophisticated micro-ecological region directly influenced by plant roots. It serves as hotspot for the interaction of a wide range of organisms with their physical environments, including bacteria, fungus, protozoa, and nematodes. These interactions support soil fertility, organic matter decomposition, nutrient cycling, plant feeding, soil structure, and pathogen suppression. [1][2][3] More so, the rhizosphere offers a unique nutritive environment to diverse microbes as the plant roots provide constant supply of nutrients. 4 Interestingly, the physicochemical properties of the soil are known to have influence on the fungal communities of the rhizosphere. The availability of water, pH, and organic matter content are some of the components that determine rhizosphere communities in the soil. Tension is generated within the leaf as water transpires across its surface, and this tension is eventually transmitted to the root system.
