Abstract:
Bupleurum latissimum Nakai is a rare endemic species native to Ulleung-do in South Korea. This study aimed to report on the rhizosphere soil microbial diversity of B. latissimum. Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Verrucomicrobia were identified in relative abundances of 27.77%, 21.70%, and 15.27%, respectively.
