Phytobiome is a term that relates to a plant (phyto) in a specific ecological area (biome). It includes the plant itself, the environment and all micro- and macro-organisms living in, on, or around the plant. These organisms include microbes, animals and other plants. The environment includes the soil, air and climate. Examples of ecological area are a field, a rangeland, a farm, a forest. ^[1]

Knowledge of the interactions within a phytobiome can be used to create tools for agriculture, crop management, increased health, preservation, productivity, and sustainability of cropping and forest systems.^[2] ^[3]

The Phytobiomes Roadmap^[4] is a document developed by a group of scientific societies, companies, research institutes, and governmental agencies.^[which?] The Roadmap presents a strategic plan to study phytobiomes and proposes an action plan to apply phytobiome studies^[5].

The Phytobiomes Alliance is an international, nonprofit consortium of academic institutions, large and small companies, and governmental agencies coordinating public-private research projects on various aspects of agriculturally relevant phytobiomes.^[6]

Phytobiomes is an open-access journal published by the American Phytopathological Society (APS).^[7] The journal focuses on transdisciplinary research that impacts the entire plant ecosystem.^[8]
