Rare taxa as the major drivers of the secondary metabolite accumulation in Rheum tanguticum.

Background: Rare taxa play a role in enhancing metabolism and plant growth. However, the construction and interactions of rare taxa within the soil‒plant continuum of medicinal plants and their impact on secondary metabolite accumulation remain poorly understood. Rheum tanguticum is a unique medicinal plant on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
