Abstract

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have revolutionized the biological research during the last few years. Nowadays due to this high-throughput technique, it is quite easy to produce huge amount of sequencing data at low cost. In the past years, plant–microbe interaction study was not an easy task. This review will give a broad idea about the importance of NGS in plant–microbe interaction study specifically for those microorganisms which play a great role in the interaction. Due to difference in sequencing systems, it is quite tough to overcome the problem regarding different types of errors. We are emphasizing on the importance of NGS data in plant–microbe interaction including the analysis of different microbial communities (using amplicon sequencing, Cross linking and sequencing of hybrids etc.). Screened research articles which are based on plant–microbe interaction study were used here to conclude the novel methods of plant–microbe interaction.
