1. Soil health: Acidobacteriota are abundant and diverse in soil ecosystems, where they play essential roles in organic matter decomposition, nutrient cycling, and soil carbon dynamics. They are involved in the degradation of complex organic compounds, such as cellulose and lignin, contributing to soil fertility and productivity.

2. Ecological balance: Acidobacteriota are key members of microbial communities in various ecosystems and are often associated with ecosystem stability and resilience. Their interactions with other microorganisms, plants, and soil components help maintain ecological balance and functioning.

3. Plant-microbe interactions: Some Acidobacteriota species have been shown to form associations with plant roots and may influence plant growth, health, and nutrient uptake. They can contribute to the bioavailability of nutrients, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, through processes like mineralization and solubilization of organic and inorganic compounds.

4. Bioremediation potential: Acidobacteriota possess metabolic versatility and biochemical capabilities that may be harnessed for bioremediation purposes. They can degrade or detoxify environmental pollutants and contaminants, including organic pollutants, heavy metals, and xenobiotic compounds, contributing to environmental cleanup and restoration efforts.

5. Potential as probiotics: While less explored compared to other bacterial phyla, certain Acidobacteriota species may have probiotic potential. Probiotics are beneficial microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer health benefits on the host. Acidobacteriota strains with desirable traits, such as acid tolerance, bile resistance, and antagonistic activity against pathogens, may be evaluated for their potential use in probiotic formulations to promote gut health and prevent or treat gastrointestinal disorders.

Legend

• The interactions are based on data from 1000 healthy individuals using shotgun 10M reads Precision Biome, a provider in full conformity to EU regulations for health information
• The width of the lines indicates R² (the coefficient of determination)
• Green indicates positive slope
• Red indicates negative
• Interactions are not two way because incidence of each bacteria are different
