Shi Z, Yang L, Yang M, Li K, Yang L, Han M. Temporal heterogeneity of the root microbiome in Panax ginseng soils across ecological compartments under mild soil disturbance. Front Microbiol 2024; 15:1340575. [PMID: 38919496 PMCID: PMC11196636 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2024.1340575] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Knowledge on spatiotemporal heterogeneity of plant root microbiomes is lacking. The diversity of the root microbiome must be revealed for understanding plant-microbe interactions and the regulation of functionally crucial microbial taxa. Methods We here investigated the dynamics of microbial group characteristics within each soil ecological compartment [rhizoplane (B), rhizosphere (J), and bulk soil (T)] across different cultivation years (year 4: F4 and year 5: F5) by using high-throughput sequencing (16S and ITS). Results According to the species diversity, microbiome diversity and the ASV (amplified sequence variant) number in the rhizoplane ecotone increased significantly with an increase in the planting years. By contrast, the microbiome diversity of the rhizosphere soil remained relatively stable. PCoA and PERMANOVA analyses revealed that microbial taxa among different planting years and ecological compartments varied significantly. Planting years exerted the least effect on the rhizosphere microbiome, but their impact on fungi in the rhizoplane and bacteria in the bulk soil was the most significant. Discussion Planting years influenced the microbial community composition in various ecological compartments of ginseng root soil. Potentially harmful fungi such as Cryptococcus (2.83%), Neonectria (0.89%), llyonectria (0.56%), Gibberella (0.41%), Piloderma (4.44%), and Plectosphaerella (3.88%) were enriched in F5B with an increase in planting years, whereas the abundance of potentially beneficial Mortierella increased. Correlation analysis indicated associations between bacterial taxa and soil pH/S-CAT, and between fungal taxa and soil moisture content/total potassium. Our study highlights the significance of changes in rhizoplane fungi and the stability of the rhizosphere microbial community in comprehending plant ecological sustainability.

Abstract
Marine microorganisms have evolved special metabolic pathways to produce numerous bioactive substances with novel structures and unique functions. This study analyzed the diversity of culturable bacteria in marine water samples from the South China Sea and screened the isolated bacteria with pathogenic fungi. A total of 200 culturable strains of 72 different bacteria were obtained from 56 water samples from the South China Sea. They belonged to three phyla and four classes, namely Gammaproteobacteria, Alphaproteobacteria, Bacilli and Actinomycetia. Bacilli was the dominant class, comprising up to 59.72%, followed by Gammaproteobacteria (20.83%). Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Paenibacillus and Rhizobium were the most dominant genera. Among these strains, HY-88 and HY-91 encoding BamC, FenB and PKSI genes were selected and identified as Bacillus subtilis. The respective inhibition rates of the HY-88 caused by plate confrontation against Magnaporthe grisea, Fusarium oxysporum, Botrytis cinerea, anthrax and Botrytis cinerea were 90.91%, 54.29%, 52.17% and 51.72%, in comparison with HY-91 86.36%, 48.57%, 47.83% and 34.48%. In addition, the supernatant of HY-88 showed a lesion inhibition rate of 74.5%, which was significantly higher than HY-91 (60.55%). In addition, HY-88 and HY-91 showed strong antifungal activity to Colletotrichum viniferum on detached Shine Muscat grapes. Tolerance tests showed that the HY-88 and HY-91 grew at 10-40 °C, 7-10% NaCl and pH 3-11. HY-88 and HY-91 could inhibit various fungal plant diseases, which lays a foundation for the development of new biopesticides.

Abstract
Preventing antifungal resistance development and identifying pathogens with high, medium, and low risk of resistance development to a particular fungicide or fungicide class is crucial in the fight against phytopathogens. We characterized the sensitivity of potato wilt-associated Fusarium oxysporum isolates to fludioxonil and penconazole and assessed the effect of these fungicides on the expression of fungal sterol-14-α-demethylase (CYP51a) and histidine kinase (HK1) genes. Penconazole stunted the growth of F. oxysporum strains at all concentrations used. While all isolates were susceptible to this fungicide, concentrations of up to 1.0 μg/mL were insufficient to cause a 50% inhibition. At low concentrations (0.63 and 1.25 μg/mL), fludioxonil stimulated growth in F. oxysporum. With an increase in the concentration of fludioxonil, only one strain (F. oxysporum S95) exhibited moderate sensitivity to the fungicide. Interaction of F. oxysporum with penconazole and fludioxonil leads to respective elevated expressions of the CYP51a and HK1 genes, which upsurge with increasing concentration of the fungicides. The data obtained indicate that fludioxonil may no longer be suitable for potato protection and its continuous use could only lead to an increased resistance with time.

Common scab disease-induced changes in geocaulosphere microbiome assemblages and functional processes in landrace potato (Solanum tuberosum var. Rongpuria) of Assam, India. Arch Microbiol 2022; 205:44. [PMID: 36576579 DOI: 10.1007/s00203-022-03380-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2022] [Revised: 11/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
Common scab (CS) caused by pathogenic Streptomyces spp. plays a decisive role in the qualitative and quantitative production of potatoes worldwide. Although the CS pathogen is present in Assam's soil, disease signs and symptoms are less obvious in the landrace Rongpuria potatoes that indicate an interesting interaction between the plant and the geocaulosphere microbial population. Toward this, a comparative metagenomics study was performed to elucidate the geocaulosphere microbiome assemblages and functions of low CS-severe (LSG) and moderately severe (MSG) potato plants. Alpha diversity indices showed that CS occurrence modulated microbiome composition and decreased overall microbial abundances. Functional analysis involving cluster of orthologous groups (COG) too confirmed reduced microbial metabolism under disease incidence. The top-three most dominant genera were Pseudomonas (relative abundance: 2.79% in LSG; 12.31% in MSG), Streptomyces (2.55% in LSG; 5.28% in MSG), and Pantoea (2.30% in LSG; 3.51% in MSG). As shown by the high Pielou's J evenness index, the potato geocaulosphere core microbiome was adaptive and resilient to CS infection. The plant growth-promoting traits and potential antagonistic activity of major taxa (Pseudomonads, non-pathogenic Streptomyces spp., and others) against the CS pathogen, i.e., Streptomyces scabiei, point toward selective microbial recruitment and colonization strategy by the plants to its own advantage. KEGG Orthology analysis showed that the CS infection resulted in high abundances of ATP-binding cassette transporters and a two-component system, ubiquitous to the transportation and regulation of metabolites. As compared to the LSG metagenome, the MSG counterpart had a higher representation of important PGPTs related to 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase, IAA production, betaine utilization, and siderophore production.

Abstract
In recent years, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) have received increased attention due to their prospective use as biofertilizers for the enhancement of crop growth and yields. However, there is a growing need to identify new PGPR isolates with additional beneficial properties. In this paper, we describe the identification of a new strain of a non-sporulating Gram-positive bacterium isolated from the rhizosphere of potato plants, classified as Brevibacterium sediminis MG-1 based on whole-genome sequencing. The bacteria are aerobic; they grow in a pH range of 6.0-10.0 (optimum 6.0), and a temperature range of 20-37 °C (optimum 30 °C). At 96 h of cultivation, strain MG-1 synthesizes 28.65 µg/ml of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) when 500 µg/ml of l-tryptophan is added. It is a producer of catechol-type siderophores and ACC deaminase (213 ± 12.34 ng/ml) and shows halotolerance. Treatment of pea, rye, and wheat seeds with a suspension of MG-1 strain cells resulted in the stimulation of stem and root biomass accumulation by 12-26% and 6-25% (P < 0.05), respectively. Treatment of seeds with bacteria in the presence of high salt concentration reduced the negative effects of salt stress on plant growth by 18-50%. The hypothetical gene lin, encoding the bacteriocin Linocin-M18, RIPP-like proteins, and polyketide synthase type III (T3PKS) loci, gene clusters responsible for iron acquisition and metabolism of siderophores, as well as gene clusters responsible for auxin biosynthesis, were identified in the B. sediminis MG-1 genome. Thus, the rhizosphere-associated strain B. sediminis MG-1 has growth-stimulating properties and can be useful for the treatment of plants grown on soils with high salinity.

Abstract
Continuous cropping obstacles caused by the over-cultivation of a single crop trigger soil degradation, yield reduction and the occurrence of plant disease. However, the relationships among stability, complexity and the assembly process of soil microbial community with continuous cropping obstacles remains unclear. In this study, molecular ecological networks analysis (MENs) and inter-domain ecological networks analysis (IDENs), and a new index named cohesion tools were used to calculate the stability and complexity of soil microbial communities from eight potato cultivars grown under a continuous cropping regime by using the high-throughput sequencing data. The results showed that the stability (i.e., robustness index) of the bacterial and fungal communities for cultivar ZS5 was significantly higher, and that the complexity (i.e., cohesion values) was also significantly higher in the bacterial, fungal and inter-domain communities (i.e., bacterial-fungal community) of cultivar ZS5 than other cultivars. Network analysis also revealed that Actinobacteria and Ascomycota were the dominant phyla within intra-domain networks of continuous cropping potato soil communities, while the phyla Proteobacteria and Ascomycota dominated the correlation of the bacterial-fungal network. Infer community assembly mechanism by phylogenetic-bin-based null model analysis (iCAMP) tools were used to calculate the soil bacterial and fungal communities' assembly processes of the eight potato cultivars under continuous cropping regime, and the results showed that the bacterial community was mainly dominated by deterministic processes (64.19% - 81.31%) while the fungal community was mainly dominated by stochastic processes (78.28% - 98.99%), indicating that the continuous-cropping regime mainly influenced the potato soil bacterial community assembly process. Moreover, cultivar ZS5 possessed a relatively lower homogeneous selection, and a higher TP, TN, AP and yield than other cultivars. Our results indicated that the soil microbial network stability and complexity, and community assemble might be associated with yield and soil properties, which would be helpful in the study for resistance to potato continuous cropping obstacles.

Abstract
Effective storage of potatoes is very important for the food industry. Given the problems involving rotten potatoes and low quality during storage, harvested potatoes from the main potato-producing areas in the Qinghai Plateau were treated by selection and air drying (Group "A") and the others were stored directly as controls (Group "C"). Then, the microbial community structure and diversity of diseased potato tubers from four main production areas were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing technology in different storage stages. The results showed that the community composition and diversity of microbes in different regions and storage periods were different, and the dominant fungi in diseased potato tubers were Boeremia in Huangyuan (HY), Maying (MY) and Zhongling (ZL) and Apiotrichum in Huangzhong (HZ) at the genus level. The dominant bacterial genus was Pseudomonas, but its abundance varied in samples from different regions and storage periods. In the analysis of indicator species, there were some common species and endemic species in each region and period, and the period with the largest number of different species was the third period. Among the four storage periods, the region with the largest number of different species was HZ. Some fungi, especially Fusarium and other potato pathogens, were more abundant in control Group "C" than in treatment Group "A." In the diversity analysis, the α diversity of fungi in Group "C" was higher than that in Group "A," but the α diversity of bacteria in Group "A" was higher than that in Group "C," and there was no obvious regularity with storage time. The β diversity varied significantly among different regions. In addition, through functional prediction analysis, it was found that a plant pathogen was one of the main nutritional types of fungi, which indicated that treatment by selection and drying could significantly reduce phytopathogenic microbe and other microorganisms and could be used as an effective measure for potato storage compared with the prevention and control by drugs that can cause environmental pollution. Further analysis of co-occurrence network showed that pathogenic fungi Fusarium was negatively correlated with pathogenic bacteria Erwinia, and there is also a negative correlation between pathogens and antagonistic microorganisms indicated that there were various symbiotic relationships among microorganisms in diseased potatoes. This study may provide a theoretical basis for biological control of potato cellar diseases and the maintenance of potato quality during long-term storage.

Abstract
Plant specialized metabolites (PSMs) are secreted into the rhizosphere, i.e., the soil zone surrounding the roots of plants. They are often involved in root-associated microbiome assembly, but the association between PSMs and microbiota is not well characterized. Saponins are a group of PSMs widely distributed in angiosperms. In this study, we compared the bacterial communities in field soils treated with the pure compounds of four different saponins. All saponin treatments decreased bacterial α-diversity and caused significant differences in β-diversity when compared with the control. The bacterial taxa depleted by saponin treatments were higher than the ones enriched; two families, Burkholderiaceae and Methylophilaceae, were enriched, while eighteen families were depleted with all saponin treatments. Sphingomonadaceae, which is abundant in the rhizosphere of saponin-producing plants (tomato and soybean), was enriched in soil treated with α-solanine, dioscin, and soyasaponins. α-Solanine and dioscin had a steroid-type aglycone that was found to specifically enrich Geobacteraceae, Lachnospiraceae, and Moraxellaceae, while soyasaponins and glycyrrhizin with an oleanane-type aglycone did not specifically enrich any of the bacterial families. At the bacterial genus level, the steroidal-type and oleanane-type saponins differentially influenced the soil bacterial taxa. Together, these results indicate that there is a relationship between the identities of saponins and their effects on soil bacterial communities.

Abstract
Beauveria and Metarhizium fungi are facultative plant endophytes that provide plant growth-stimulating, immunomodulatory, and other beneficial effects. However, little is known about the level of plant colonization by these fungi under natural conditions. We assessed the endophytic colonization of potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) with entomopathogenic fungi at their natural load in soils (102-104 colony-forming units per g). Microbiological analyses of soils and plant organs, as well as a metagenomic analysis of potato roots and leaves, were conducted in three locations in Western Siberia, consisting of conventional agrosystems and kitchen gardens. The fungi were isolated at a relatively high frequency from unsterilized roots (up to 53% of Metarhizium-positive plants). However, the fungi were sparsely isolated from the internal tissues of roots, stems, and leaves (3%). Among the genus Metarhizium, two species, M. robertsii and M. brunneum, were detected in plants as well as in soils, and the first species was predominant. A metagenomic analysis of internal potato tissues showed a low relative abundance of Beauveria and Metarhizium (<0.3%), and the communities were represented primarily by phytopathogens. We suggest that colonization of the internal tissues of potatoes occurs sporadically under a natural load of entomopathogenic fungi in soils. The lack of stable colonization of potato plants with Beauveria and Metarhizium may be due to competition with phytopathogens.

Abstract
DNA modification techniques are increasingly applied to improve the agronomic performance of crops worldwide. Before cultivation and marketing, the environmental risks of such modified varieties must be assessed. This includes an understanding of their effects on soil microorganisms and associated ecosystem services. This study analyzed the impact of a cisgenic modification of the potato variety Desirée to enhance resistance against the late blight-causing fungus Phytophthora infestans (Oomycetes) on the abundance and diversity of rhizosphere inhabiting microbial communities. Two experimental field sites in Ireland and the Netherlands were selected, and for 2 subsequent years, the cisgenic version of Desirée was compared in the presence and absence of fungicides to its non-engineered late blight-sensitive counterpart and a conventionally bred late blight-resistant variety. At the flowering stage, total DNA was extracted from the potato rhizosphere and subjected to PCR for quantifying and sequencing bacterial 16S rRNA genes, fungal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences, and nir genes encoding for bacterial nitrite reductases. Both bacterial and fungal communities responded to field conditions, potato varieties, year of cultivation, and bacteria sporadically also to fungicide treatments. At the Dutch site, without annual replication, fungicides stimulated nirK abundance for all potatoes, but with significance only for cisgenic Desirée. In all other cases, neither the abundance nor the diversity of any microbial marker differed between both Desirée versions. Overall, the study demonstrates environmental variation but also similar patterns of soil microbial diversity in potato rhizospheres and indicates that the cisgenic modification had no tangible impact on soil microbial communities.

Design, Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Fungicidal Activity of Two Fenclorim Derivatives. CRYSTALS 2020. [DOI: 10.3390/cryst10070587] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Two fenclorim derivatives (compounds 6 and 7) were synthesized by linking active sub-structures using fenclorim as the lead compound. The chemical structures of the two compounds were confirmed by NMR spectroscopy, high resolution mass spectrometry, and X-ray diffraction analysis. Their fungicidal activity against six plant fungal strains was tested. Compounds 6 and 7 both crystallized in the monoclinic system, with a P21/c space group (a = 8.4842(6) Å, b = 24.457(2) Å, c = 8.9940(6) Å, V = 1855.0(2) Å3, Z = 4) and Cc space group (a = 10.2347(7) Å, b = 18.3224(10) Å, c = 7.2447(4) Å, V = 1357.50(14) Å3, Z = 4), respectively. The crystal structure of compound 6 was stabilized by C–H···N and C–H···O hydrogen bonding interactions and N–H···N hydrogen bonds linked the neighboring molecules of compound 7 to form a three-dimensional framework. Compound 6 displayed the most excellent activity, which is much better than that of pyrimethanil against Botrytis cinerea in vivo. Additionally, compound 6 exhibited greater in vitro activity against Pseudoperonospora cubensis compared to that of pyrimethanil. Moreover, compound 7 exhibited strong fungicidal activity against Erysiphe cichoracearum at 50 mg/L in vitro, while pyrimethanil did not. Compounds 6 and 7 could be used as new pyrimidine fungicides in the future.
