Diversity within lower taxonomic units in microbial communities is a key trait, giving rise to important ecological functions. In the rhizosphere, these functions include disease suppression and pathogen inhibition. However, limited effort has been given to exploring intragenus microdiversity in an increasingly homogenous agricultural system. Through an integrative approach combining culture-dependent and -independent methods, we explore the rhizosphere Pseudomonas pangenome and demonstrate cultivar-dependent taxonomic and functional microdiversity between two closely related modern winter wheat cultivars. A Fusarium-resistant cultivar demonstrated increased Pseudomonas taxonomic diversity but not biosynthetic diversity when compared to the susceptible cultivar, coinciding with a thinner root diameter of the resistant cultivar. We found enrichment of Pseudomonas isolates capable of antagonizing Fusarium as well as chitinase-encoding genes and pyoverdine gene clusters in the resistant cultivar. Across closely related Pseudomonas isolates from the two cultures, there were differences in genomic content and biosynthetic gene clusters. Ultimately, we highlight the need for fine-scale analysis to uncover the hidden microdiversity within rhizosphere Pseudomonas.
