| Abstract |
We face major agricultural challenges that remain a threat for global food security. Soil microbes harbor enormous potentials to provide sustainable and economically favorable solutions that could introduce novel approaches to improve agricultural practices and, hence, crop productivity. In this review we give an overview regarding the current state-of-the-art of microbiome research by discussing new technologies and approaches. We also provide insights into fundamental microbiome research that aim to provide a deeper understanding of the dynamics within microbial communities, as well as their interactions with different plant hosts and the environment. We aim to connect all these approaches with potential applications and reflect how we can use microbial communities in modern agricultural systems to realize a more customized and sustainable use of valuable resources (e.g., soil). |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 31. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 01 November 2021.
All research outputs
#1,186,032
of 24,093,053 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Plant Science
#335
of 22,511 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#25,878
of 336,568 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Plant Science
#14
of 466 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,093,053 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 95th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 22,511 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.9. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 336,568 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 92% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 466 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 97% of its contemporaries.
