Metapangenomics of wild and cultivated banana microbiome reveals a plethora of host-associated protective functions

Table 2 Key enriched gene ontology (GO) categories of the endophytic microbiome genes that were unique to metapangenomes from AAA-genotype (DC = M. acuminata Dwarf Cavendish) or BB-genotypes (BB = M. balbisiana ‘Thai Black’, MB = M. balbisiana) shown in Table 1, i.e., genes not shared among metapangenomes
