ABSTRACT
The primary aim of this research was to characterise the taxonomic diversity of the kauri soil microbiota and their response to dieback, whilst screening members of the soil microbiota against P. agathidicida to test their potential to inhibit the pathogen. A secondary aim was to quantify differences in soil microbiota between kauri and adjacent pine (Pinus radiata).
