This study investigated how urbanization disrupts the microbiomes associated with oak (genus Quercus) trees. We sampled microbial communities from four tree-associated compartments (leaves, roots, upper soils (0-15 cm), and lower soils (15-30 cm)) across an urban-to-rural gradient in Massachusetts and characterized them using 16S rRNA gene and ITS region amplicon sequencing.
