This chapter provides an overview of techniques for understanding and modifying phytobiome microbial activity toward plant disease control. It reviews traditional and advanced techniques for analyzing microbial communities, including molecular, culture-based and microscopic approaches, and it explores strategies to exploit microbial activity through biological control and manipulate activity through phytobiome engineering. The chapter discusses constraints to these methods and identifies future directions that will increasingly translate phytobiome knowledge to field application.
