description: This training material is part of a self-paced e-learning module given by FiBL Switerland, ITAB and Wageningen University and Research as part of the Liveseeding project. It is an  introduction to seed microbiota, to give a general overview of how they are studied and some examples of what we know about them.    Micro-organisms associated with seeds can influence seed germination processes and plant health, among other aspects. This topic has gained increasing attention both in scientific research and in organic seed propagation, in the aim of better understanding and harnessing seed and plant interactions with their microbial communities in organic seed production systems.     The entire module, with detailed guidance, link to the auto-corrected online quiz and additional references can be taken on the following website: https://itab.bio/en/elearningseedproduction/Module14
