Plant microbiota has a variety of impacts on the plant. Some are beneficial, while some are pathogenic. This study discusses the general metagenomics procedures in processing plant-related metagenomes and focuses on the tomato plants' rhizosphere species. Metagenomics, associated with eventual DNA, is isolated from environmental samples and thus permits absolute microbial population identification. Meanwhile, the genetic content of the DNA sample obtained allows the functional capability identification and biochemical procedure of many microorganisms. This review reveals the recent utilization and application of the potential of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) in agriculture. It involves plant-associated microbiota, the factors driving their diversity, and plant metagenome to tackle current challenges experienced in food security. This review provides the newest methods for rapidly identifying the microbial communities inhabiting the rhizosphere soil of tomato plants.
