	Rice is a major food crop cultivated around the globe. Specially scented rice varieties are of commercial importance but they are low-yielding. The rhizospheric microflora plays a significant role in improving yield and aroma. However, the core microbiome of the scented rice rhizosphere is comparatively less explored. Here, we analyzed the core microbiome associated with the rhizosphere of the scented (Ambemohar-157 and Dehradun basmati) in comparison with non-scented rice (Kolam and Arize 6444 Gold) cultivated at two different geoclimatic zones of India (Maharashtra and Uttarakhand) using the metagenomics approach. The alpha and beta diversity analysis showed that the microbial communities associated with scented and non-scented varieties significantly changes with respect to richness, diversity, and evenness. The taxonomic profiling revealed the variation in composition, diversity, and abundance of the microbiome in terms of phyla and genera associated with scented rice varieties over non-scented. The cluster analysis distinguishes the microbial communities based on their geographical positions. The core microbiome analysis revealed that scented rice rhizosphere shelters distinct and unique microbiota. 28.6 % of genera were exclusively present only in the scented rice rhizosphere. The putative functional gene annotation revealed the high abundance of genes related to the biosynthesis of 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2AP) precursors in scented rice. The precursor feeding analysis revealed proline as a preferred substrate by 2AP synthesizing bacteria. The 2AP precursor proline and proline metabolism genes showed a positive correlation. The scented rice-specific rhizobacteria pointed out in this study can be used as bioinoculants for enhancing aroma, yield, and sustainable rice cultivation.&lt;/p&gt;

	Tree species, annual climatic cycle, and geochemical properties influence the tree rhizospheric microbiome. However, its understanding in the moist deciduous forest of Northern Western Ghats (NWG), India, is limited. Moreover, the effects of foliar habits of trees and seasonal variations on rhizobacterial communities across congeneric tree species are unexplored. Hence, we employed high throughput 16 S rRNA gene sequencing to examine the effects of foliar habits of congeneric tree species and seasonal influences on the rhizobacterial community. For this study, rhizospheric soil from Ficus arnottiana (deciduous) and Ficus talboti (evergreen) trees from NWG, India, was collected during three seasons (summer, monsoon, and winter) and subjected to high throughput sequencing. A total of 3031 amplicon sequence variants (ASV) were observed, of which 1257 and 1181 ASV were unique to F. arnottiana and F. talboti, respectively, and 593 ASV were common to both species. The phyla Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria, and Chloroflexi were ubiquitous and contributed &amp;gt;90% to the rhizobacterial community. Some bacterial phyla were exclusively associated with either of the tree species and seasons. Different bacterial phyla performed similar functions in different seasons, indicating their functional redundancy and emphasizing their resilience and adaptability across seasons. It was observed that seasonal dynamics mainly drove the rhizobacterial diversity; however, it was also influenced by the foliar habits of the trees and geochemical properties. The study enhances the understanding of congeneric tree microbiomes and offers valuable insights into their potential applications through microbiome engineering.&lt;/p&gt;
