Abstract
There is increasing interest in harnessing the microbiome to improve cropping systems. With the availability of high—throughput and low—cost sequencing technologies, gathering microbiome data is becoming more routine. However, the analysis of microbiome data is challenged by the size and complexity of the data, and the incomplete nature of many microbiome databases. Further, to bring microbiome data value, it often needs to be analyzed in conjunction with other complex data that impact on crop health and disease management, such as plant genotype and environmental factors. Artificial intelligence (AI), boosted through deep learning (DL), has achieved significant breakthroughs and is a powerful tool for managing large complex datasets such as the interplay between the microbiome, crop plants, and their environment. In this review, we aim to provide readers with a brief introduction to AI techniques, and we introduce how AI has been applied to areas of microbiome sequencing taxonomy, the functional annotation for microbiome sequences, associating the microbiome community with host traits, designing synthetic communities, genomic selection, field phenotyping, and disease forecasting. At the end of this review, we proposed further efforts that are required to fully exploit the power of AI in studying phytomicrobiomes.
