Abstract
The synchronous research and analysis of total and active soil microbial communities can provide insight into how these communities are impacted by continuous cropping years and pathogen infection. The diversity of total and active bacteria in rhizospheric soil of 2-year-old and 3-year-old healthy and diseased Panax notoginseng can comprehensively reveal the bacterial response characteristics in continuous cropping practice. The results showed that 4916 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were found in the rhizospheric soil bacterial community of P. notoginseng at the DNA level, but only 2773 OTUs were found at the RNA level. The rhizospheric environment had significant effects on the active and bacterial communities, as indicated by the number of OTUs, Shannon, Chao1, Faith's phylogenetic diversity (Faith's PD), and Simpson's diversity indexes. The DNA level can better show the difference in diversity level before and after infection with root rot. The bacterial Chao1 and Faith's PD diversity indexes of 2-year-old root rot-diseased P. notoginseng rhizospheric soil (D2) were higher than that of healthy plants, while the bacterial Shannon diversity index of 3-year-old root rot-diseased P. notoginseng rhizospheric soil (D3) was the lowest in the total bacteria. Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) illustrated that the total bacterial species composition changed markedly after root rot disease. There were significant differences in the composition of active bacterial species between the 2-year and 3-year rhizospheres. In conclusion, the total and active edaphic rhizospheric bacterial communities could provide important opportunities to understand the responses of bacteria to continuous cropping of P. notoginseng.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Crop diversification is considered as an imperative approach for synchronizing the plant nutrient demands and soil nutrient availability. Taking two or more crops from the same field in one year is considered as multiple cropping. It improves the diversity and abundance of soil microbes, thereby improving the growth and yield of crops. Therefore, the present study was conducted to explore the effects of different multiple winter cropping on soil microbial communities in paddy fields. In this study, eight rice cropping patterns from two multiple cropping systems with three different winter crops, including Chinese milk vetch (CMV), rape, and wheat were selected. The effects of different multiple winter cropping on soil microbial abundance, community structure, and diversity in paddy fields were studied by 16 S rRNA high-throughput sequencing and real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). RESULTS The results showed that different multiple winter cropping increased the operational taxonomic units (OTUs), species richness, and community richness index of the bacterial community in 0 ~ 20 cm soil layer. Moreover, soil physical and chemical properties of different multiple cropping patterns also affected the diversity and abundance of microbial bacterial communities. The multiple cropping increased soil potassium and nitrogen content, which significantly affected the diversity and abundance of bacterial communities, and it also increased the overall paddy yield. Moreover, different winter cropping changed the population distribution of microorganisms, and Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria, Nitrospira, and Chloroflexi were identified as the most dominant groups. Multiple winter cropping, especially rape-early rice-late rice (TR) andChinese milk vetch- early rice-late rice (TC) enhanced the abundance of Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria, and Actinobacteria and decreased the relative abundance of Verrucomicrobia and Euryarchaeota. CONCLUSION In conclusion, winter cropping of Chinese milk vetch and rape were beneficial to improve the soil fertility, bacteria diversity, abundance and rice yield.

Abstract
Long-term continuous cropping affects the soil microecological community and leads to nutrient imbalances, which reduces crop yields, and crop rotation can increase soil productivity. To study the effects of the cultivation of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and corn (Zea mays) on the microbial community, physical and chemical factors and the structure of aggregates in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) long-term continuous cropping soils were examined. Four cropping patterns were established, including one continuous cropping pattern and three crop rotation patterns, and the diversity of the soil microecological community was measured using high-throughput sequencing. The physical and chemical properties of different models of soil were measured, and the soil aggregate structure was determined by dry and wet sieving. Planting of aftercrop tomato and corn altered the bacterial community of the cotton continuous soil to a lesser extent and the fungal community to a greater extent. In addition, continuous cropping reduced the diversity and richness of the soil fungal community. Different aftercrop planting patterns showed that there were very high contents of soil organic carbon and organic matter in the cotton-maize rotation model, while the soil aggregate structure was the most stable in the corn-cotton rotation model. Planting tomato in continuous cropping cotton fields has a greater effect on the soil microbial community than planting maize. Therefore, according to the characteristics of different succeeding crop planting patterns, the damage of continuous cropping of cotton to the soil microenvironment can be alleviated directionally, which will enable the sustainable development of cotton production.

Abstract
Intercropping systems have garnered attention as a sustainable agricultural approach for efficient land use, increased ecological diversity in farmland, and enhanced crop yields. This study examined the effect of intercropping on the kiwifruit rhizosphere to gain a deeper understanding of the relationships between cover plants and kiwifruit in this sustainable agricultural system. Soil physicochemical properties and bacterial communities were analyzed using the Kiwifruit-Agaricus blazei intercropping System. Moreover, a combined analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequencing and metabolomic sequencing was used to identify differential microbes and metabolites in the rhizosphere. Intercropping led to an increase in soil physicochemical and enzyme activity, as well as re-shaping the bacterial community and increasing microbial diversity. Proteobacteria, Bacteroidota, Myxococcota, and Patescibacteria were the most abundant and diverse phyla in the intercropping system. Expression analysis further revealed that the bacterial genera BIrii41, Acidibacter, and Altererythrobacter were significantly upregulated in the intercropping system. Moreover, 358 differential metabolites (DMs) were identified between the monocropping and intercropping cultivation patterns, with fatty acyls, carboxylic acids and derivatives, and organooxygen compounds being significantly upregulated in the intercropping system. The KEGG metabolic pathways further revealed considerable enrichment of DMs in ABC transporters, histidine metabolism, and pyrimidine metabolism. This study identified a significant correlation between 95 bacterial genera and 79 soil metabolites, and an interactive network was constructed to explore the relationships between these differential microbes and metabolites in the rhizosphere. This study demonstrated that Kiwifruit-Agaricus blazei intercropping can be an effective, labor-saving, economic, and sustainable practice for reshaping bacterial communities and promoting the accumulation and metabolism of beneficial microorganisms in the rhizosphere.

Abstract
Introduction The effects of continuous cropping and rotation cropping, two important tobacco cultivation practices, on soil microbial communities at different stages remain unclear. Different planting patterns have been shown to influence soil physical and chemical properties, which in turn can affect the composition and diversity of soil microbial communities. Methods In order to investigate the impact of different planting methods on soil microbial community structure, we selected two representative planting methods: continuous cropping (tobacco) and rotational cropping (tobacco-maize). These methods were chosen as the focal points of our research to explore the potential effects on soil microbial communities. High-throughput sequencing technology was employed to investigate the structure of soil microbial communities, as well as their relationships with soil environmental factors, by utilizing the 16S rRNA, ITS, and 18S genes. Furthermore, the interaction among microorganisms was explored through the application of the Random Matrix Theory (RMT) molecular ecological network approach. Results There was no significant difference in α diversity, but significant difference in β diversity based on Jaccard distance test. Compared to continuous cropping, crop rotation significantly increased the abundance of beneficial prokaryotes Verrucomicrobia and Rhodanobacter. These findings indicate that crop rotation promotes the enrichment of Verrucomicrobia and Rhodanobacter in the soil microbial community. AP and NH4-N had a greater effect on the community structure of prokaryotes and fungi in tobacco soil, while only AP had a greater effect on the community structure of protist. Molecular ecological network analysis showed that the network robustness and Cohesion of rotation were significantly higher than that of continuous cropping, indicating that the complexity and stability of molecular ecological networks were higher in the rotational, and the microbial communities cooperated more effectively, and the community structure was more stable. Discussion From this point of view, rotational cropping is more conducive to changing the composition of soil microbial community, enhancing the stability of microbial network structure, and enhancing the potential ecological functions in soil.

Abstract
Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) is a major cash crop, and soil quality played a significant role in the yield and quality of tobacco. Most farmers cultivate tobacco in rotation with other crops to improve the soil characteristics. However, the effects of different previous crops on the soil's nutrient status and bacterial community for tobacco cultivation still need to be determined. Three treatments were assessed in this study, i.e., tobacco-planting soil without treatment (CK), soil with barley previously cultivated (T1), and soil with rapeseed previously cultivated (T2). The soil physical and chemical properties and the 16S rRNA gene sequence diversity of the bacterial community were analyzed. The effects of different crops on the physical and chemical properties of tobacco-planting soil and the diversity and richness of the bacterial community were comprehensively discussed. The results of this study showed that different previously cultivated crops altered the nutrient status of the soil, with changes in the ratio of NH4 +-N to NO3 --N having the most significant impact on tobacco. In CK, the ratio of NH4 +-N to NO3 --N was 1:24.2, T1-1:9.59, and T2-1:11.10. The composition of the bacterial community in tobacco-planting soil varied significantly depending on the previously cultivated crops. The richness and diversity of the bacterial community with different crops were considerably higher than without prior cultivation of different crops. The dominant bacteria in different treatments were Actinobacteriota, Proteobacteria, and Chloroflexi with their relative abundance differed. In conclusion, our study revealed significant differences in nutrient status, bacterial community diversity, and the richness of tobacco-planting soil after the preceding cultivation of different crops. Suitable crops should be selected to be previously cultivated in tobacco crop rotations in near future for sustainable agriculture.

Abstract
Soil sickness a severe problem in tobacco production, leading to soil-borne diseases and reduce in tobacco yield. This occurs as a result of the interaction between root exudates and rhizosphere microorganisms, which is however, little studied until now. By combining the field investigation and pot experiment, we found the output yield consistently decreased during the first 10 years of continuous cropping in a tobacco field, but increased at the 15th year (15Y). The root exudate and rhizosphere bacterial community was further analyzed to reveal the underlying mechanism of the suppressive soil formation. Root exudate of 15Y tobacco enriched in amino acids and derivatives, while depleted in the typical autotoxins including phenolic acids and alkaloids. This was correlated to the low microbial diversity in 15Y, but also the changes in community composition and topological properties of the co-occurrence network. Especially, the reduced autotoxins were associated with low Actinobacteria abundance, low network complexity and high network modularity, which significantly correlated with the recovered output yield in 15Y. This study revealed the coevolution of rhizosphere microbiota and root exudate as the soil domesticated by continuous cropping of tobacco, and indicated a potential role of the autotoxins and theirs effect on the microbial community in the formation of suppressive soil.

Abstract
Fritillaria cirrhosa is an important cash crop, and its industrial development is being hampered by continuous cropping obstacles, but the composition and changes of rhizosphere soil microorganisms and metabolites in the cultivation process of Fritillaria cirrhosa have not been revealed. We used metagenomics sequencing to analyze the changes of the microbiome in rhizosphere soil during a three-year cultivation process, and combined it with LC-MS/MS to detect the changes of metabolites. Results indicate that during the cultivation of Fritillaria cirrhosa, the composition and structure of the rhizosphere soil microbial community changed significantly, especially regarding the relative abundance of some beneficial bacteria. The abundance of Bradyrhizobium decreased from 7.04% in the first year to about 5% in the second and third years; the relative abundance of Pseudomonas also decreased from 6.20% in the first year to 2.22% in the third year; and the relative abundance of Lysobacter decreased significantly from more than 4% in the first two years of cultivation to 1.01% in the third year of cultivation. However, the relative abundance of some harmful fungi has significantly increased, such as Botrytis, which increased significantly from less than 3% in the first two years to 7.93% in the third year, and Talaromyces fungi, which were almost non-existent in the first two years of cultivation, significantly increased to 3.43% in the third year of cultivation. The composition and structure of Fritillaria cirrhosa rhizosphere metabolites also changed significantly, the most important of which were carbohydrates represented by sucrose (48.00-9.36-10.07%) and some amino acid compounds related to continuous cropping obstacles. Co-occurrence analysis showed that there was a significant correlation between differential microorganisms and differential metabolites, but Procrustes analysis showed that the relationship between bacteria and metabolites was closer than that between fungi and metabolites. In general, in the process of Fritillaria cirrhosa cultivation, the beneficial bacteria in the rhizosphere decreased, the harmful bacteria increased, and the relative abundance of carbohydrate and amino acid compounds related to continuous cropping obstacles changed significantly. There is a significant correlation between microorganisms and metabolites, and the shaping of the Fritillaria cirrhosa rhizosphere's microecology by bacteria is more relevant.

Abstract
Continuous planting has a severe impact on the growth of Casuarina equisetifolia. In this study, the effects of three different long-term monocultures (one, two and three replanting) on the physicochemical indexes, microbial functional diversity, and soil metabolomics were analyzed in C. equisetifolia rhizosphere soil. The results showed that rhizosphere soil organic matter content, cation exchange capacity, total and available nitrogen, total and available phosphorus, and total and available potassium contents significantly decreased with the increasing number of continuous plantings. The evaluation of microbial functional diversity revealed a reduction in the number of soil microorganisms that rely on carbohydrates for carbon sources and an increase in soil microorganisms that used phenolic acid, carboxylic acid, fatty acid, and amines as carbon sources. Soil metabolomics analysis showed a significant decrease in soil carbohydrate content and a significant accumulation of autotoxic acid, amine, and lipid in the C. equisetifolia rhizosphere soil. Consequently, the growth of C. equisetifolia could hinder total nutrient content and their availability. Thus, valuable insights for managing the cultivation of C. equisetifolia and soil remediation were provided.

Wang Y, Lin S, Li J, Jia X, Hu M, Cai Y, Cheng P, Li M, Chen Y, Lin W, Wang H, Wu Z. Metagenomics-based exploration of key soil microorganisms contributing to continuously planted Casuarina equisetifolia growth inhibition and their interactions with soil nutrient transformation. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1324184. [PMID: 38126014 PMCID: PMC10731376 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2023.1324184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2023] [Accepted: 11/22/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
Casuarina equisetifolia (C. equisetifolia) is an economically important forest tree species, often cultivated in continuous monoculture as a coastal protection forest. Continuous planting has gradually affected growth and severely restricted the sustainable development of the C. equisetifolia industry. In this study, we analyzed the effects of continuous planting on C. equisetifolia growth and explored the rhizosphere soil microecological mechanism from a metagenomic perspective. The results showed that continuous planting resulted in dwarfing, shorter root length, and reduced C. equisetifolia seedling root system. Metagenomics analysis showed that 10 key characteristic microorganisms, mainly Actinoallomurus, Actinomadura, and Mycobacterium, were responsible for continuously planted C. equisetifolia trees. Quantitative analysis showed that the number of microorganisms in these three genera decreased significantly with the increase of continuous planting. Gene function analysis showed that continuous planting led to the weakening of the environmental information processing-signal transduction ability of soil characteristic microorganisms, and the decrease of C. equisetifolia trees against stress. Reduced capacity for metabolism, genetic information processing-replication and repair resulted in reduced microbial propagation and reduced microbial quantity in the rhizosphere soil of C. equisetifolia trees. Secondly, amino acid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, glycan biosynthesis and metabolism, lipid metabolism, metabolism of cofactors and vitamins were all significantly reduced, resulting in a decrease in the ability of the soil to synthesize and metabolize carbon and nitrogen. These reduced capacities further led to reduced soil microbial quantity, microbial carbon and nitrogen, microbial respiration intensity, reduced soil enzyme nutrient cycling and resistance-related enzyme activities, a significant reduction in available nutrient content of rhizosphere soils, a reduction in the ion exchange capacity, and an impediment to C. equisetifolia growth. This study provides an important basis for the management of continuously planted C. equisetifolia plantations.

Root-knot nematode infections and soil characteristics significantly affected microbial community composition and assembly of tobacco soil microbiota: a large-scale comparison in tobacco-growing areas. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1282609. [PMID: 38107871 PMCID: PMC10722292 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1282609] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Tobacco root-knot nematode (RKN) is a highly destructive soil-borne disease worldwide. However, there is a lack of research on the relationship between RKN and tobacco root microbial community composition under large-scale geographical conditions in China. Methods In this study, we collected 65 samples from 28 main tobacco-growing areas across 10 provinces in China and conducted 16S rDNA sequencing to investigate the dynamic microbial changes in tobacco soil infected by RKN compared to healthy tobacco soil. Based on the analysis of rhizosphere soil bacterial communities, changes after RKN infection, and soil environmental factors. Results We found the 28 tobacco-growing areas could be divided into two distinct groups with different microbial compositions and varying responses to RKN infection. In group1 of the provinces of Anhui, Henan, Shanxi, and Heilongjiang, Vicinamibacteria dominated the bacterial community, while Acidobacteriae was present in low abundance. In contrast, group2 of the other six provinces (Yunnan, Guizhou, Chongqing, Guangxi, Hubei, and Shandong) exhibited an opposite pattern. After infected by RKN, the genera Chitinophaga increased significant in group 1, while the genera Rhodococcus in group 2 exhibited a substantial increase. Alpha-diversity analysis revealed that RKN-infected tobacco exhibited a richer and more diverse rhizosphere soil bacterial community compared to healthy tobacco in most growing areas. A total of 12 kinds of soil environmental factors were measured in healthy and RKN-infected tobacco soil, and based on the co-occurrence and correlation analysis between environmental factors and microbial species, the pH level, calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), phosphorus (P), iron (Fe), and sodium (Na) were identified as key environmental factors influencing the population composition of rhizosphere microorganisms during RKN infection. We observed that RKN infection further increased the pH in weakly alkaline group 1 soil, while weakly acidic group 2 soil experienced a further decrease in pH. Furthermore, we identified three genera as potential biocontrol or plant growth-promoting bacteria for tobacco. Discussion These findings provide valuable reference data for managing RKN disease in different tobacco-growing areas and contribute to the exploration of new and effective biological control methods.

PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:3901.

Abstract
Casparian strip membrane domain protein-like (CASPL) genes are key genes for the formation and regulation of the Casparian strip and play an important role in plant abiotic stress. However, little research has focused on the members, characteristics, and biological functions of the patchouli PatCASPL gene family. In this study, 156 PatCASPL genes were identified at the whole-genome level. Subcellular localization predicted that 75.6% of PatCASPL proteins reside on the cell membrane. A phylogenetic analysis categorized PatCASPL genes into five subclusters alongside Arabidopsis CASPL genes. In a cis-acting element analysis, a total of 16 different cis-elements were identified, among which the photo-responsive element was the most common in the CASPL gene family. A transcriptome analysis showed that p-hydroxybenzoic acid, an allelopathic autotoxic substance, affected the expression pattern of PatCASPLs, including a total of 27 upregulated genes and 30 down-regulated genes, suggesting that these PatCASPLs may play an important role in the regulation of patchouli continuous cropping obstacles by affecting the formation and integrity of Casparian strip bands. These results provided a theoretical basis for exploring and verifying the function of the patchouli PatCASPL gene family and its role in continuous cropping obstacles.

Promotion of faba bean seedling growth under Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. fabae and cinnamic acid stress in faba bean-wheat intercropping system and underlying proteomic mechanisms. PHYSIOLOGIA PLANTARUM 2023; 175:e14099.

Abstract
Continuous cropping severely affects faba bean growth, mainly due to pathogen and autotoxic substance accumulation. Here, we used faba bean monocropping (M) and intercropping with wheat (I), with stress treatments of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. fabae (FOF) alone (F) and combined with cinnamic acid (F + C), to analyze seedling growth, defense-related enzymes, levels of resistance-associated substances, and protein expression profiles in roots. The results showed that intercropping mitigated the inhibitory effects of FOF and cinnamic acid. FOF resulted in increased activities of defense-related enzymes as well as levels of resistance-associated substances. Proteomic analysis showed that 22 proteins were upregulated following FOF inoculation (M + F), and 6 proteins were downregulated after the addition of cinnamic acid (M + F + C) in monocropping plants; these proteins were mainly involved in pathways associated with carbohydrate metabolism, energy, and the cytoplasm. Comparison of monocropping and intercropping indicated that the upregulated proteins were mostly associated with stress and defense, carbohydrate transport and metabolism, maintenance of cellular homeostasis, and protein synthesis. KEGG analysis revealed that intercropping increased enrichment in pathways associated with metabolism, ribosomes, biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, proteasomes, pyruvate metabolism, and pentose and glucuronate interconversions. The results indicated that intercropping mitigated growth inhibition by FOF and cinnamic acid by increasing energy production, maintaining normal cellular functions, and promoting the synthesis of defense-associated secondary metabolites. These findings provide a basis for further investigation into the molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of intercropping in controlling resistance to Fusarium wilt in the faba bean.

Abstract
The continuous cropping obstacle is the main factor in leading to difficulty in American ginseng replanting. The dormant microbiota in the soil may be the cause of American ginseng disease and eventually caused continuous cropping obstacles, but there are few studies on the dynamic changes of soil microenvironment after American ginseng planting. In this study, we tracked short-term variation in physicochemical properties, enzyme activities, and fungal communities over time-series in soils with continuous cropping obstacle under crop rotation and probiotic Bacillus treatments. Furthermore, we examined the relationships between the important fungal compositions and the soil properties. The results showed that sucrase, cellulase, urease and acid phosphatase activities were significantly increased, while catalase and dehydrogenase were decreased with treatments time. Rotation treatment significantly affected the diversity, dissimilarity degree and species distribution of soil fungal community with continuous cropping obstacle over a short-term. Moreover, beneficial fungal biomarkers such as Cladorrhinum, Oidiodendron, and Mariannaea were accumulated at 48 h under rotation treatments. Almost all fungal biomarkers were negatively correlated with hydrolases and positively correlated with oxidoreductases and acid phosphatase under crop rotation treatments. This study suggested that compared to probiotic Bacillus, crop rotation can significantly affect soil fungal community structure, especially the enrichment of specific potentially beneficial fungal species. Our findings provide a scientific basis for understanding the dynamic changes of fungal communities and soil properties with continuous cropping obstacle of American ginseng in initial stage of soil improvement.

Abstract
Introduction Continuous cropping obstacle seriously affects the quality and yield of Salvia miltiorrhiza, and the synergistic effect of root exudates and rhizosphere pathogenic microorganisms may be an important cause of continuous cropping obstacle. This study aimed to explore the effects of representative organic acids on the growth and metabolism of specific microorganisms in the S. miltiorrhiza rhizosphere soil under continuous cropping, and clarify its mechanism. Methods The effect of phthalic acid (PA) on the growth and metabolism of Rhizoctonia solani was evaluated by mycelial growth inhibition method. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry were used to identify the differential metabolites of R. solani induced by exogenous PA. Results PA exerted a concentration-dependent effect on mycelial growth, biomass, intracellular polysaccharides con-tent, and total protein content in R. solani. A total of 1773 metabolites and 1040 differential metabolites were identified in the blank medium (CK), Fungi (CK + fungi), and PA-Fungi (CK + fungi + acid) groups. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis showed that the differential metabolites were mainly involved in the sugar, lipid, and protein metabolic pathways related to stable membrane structure and cell growth. Discussion The proliferation and metabolism network of R. solani induced by PA was proposed, and the enhancement of sugar, lipid, and amino acid metabolism was presumed to be related to the active resistance of cells to organic acid stress. These results offer new in-sights into the effects of PA metabolism on promoting R. solani proliferation, and provide theoretical support for further optimizing the rhizosphere microecological environment of Salvia miltiorrhiza continuous cropping soil and reducing continuous cropping obstacle.

Abstract
Bio-drying is a practical approach for treating food waste (FW). However, microbial ecological processes during treatment are essential for improving the dry efficiency, and have not been stressed enough. This study analyzed the microbial community succession and two critical periods of interdomain ecological networks (IDENs) during FW bio-drying inoculated with thermophiles (TB), to determine how TB affects FW bio-drying efficiency. The results showed that TB could rapidly colonize in the FW bio-drying, with the highest relative abundance of 5.13%. Inoculating TB increased the maximum temperature, temperature integrated index and moisture removal rate of FW bio-drying (55.7 °C, 219.5 °C, and 86.11% vs. 52.1 °C, 159.1 °C, and 56.02%), thereby accelerating the FW bio-drying efficiency by altering the succession of microbial communities. The structural equation model and IDEN analysis demonstrated that TB inoculation complicated the IDENs between bacterial and fungal communities by significantly and positively affecting bacterial communities (b = 0.39, p < 0.001) and fungal communities (b = 0.32, p < 0.01), thereby enhancing interdomain interactions between bacteria and fungi. Additionally, inoculation TB significantly increased the relative abundance of keystone taxa, including Clostridium sensu stricto, Ochrobactrum, Phenylobacterium, Microvirga and Candida. In conclusion, the inoculation of TB could effectively improve FW bio-drying, which is a promising technology for rapidly reducing FW with high moisture content and recovering resources from it.

Abstract
Cucumber is an important cash crop; however, continuous cropping obstacles readily occur within the intensive production processes of facility horticulture. This study aimed to determine the effects of continuous cropping on soil quality and the microbial community in the rhizosphere soil of cucumbers. Rhizosphere soil of cucumber planted continuously for 4, 8, and 12 years was investigated, and soil that was not continuously planted was used as the control. Soil physicochemical properties, enzyme activity, microbial diversity, and richness were determined. The results showed that with the increase in continuous cropping years (0, 4, 8, and 12 years), soil total salt content continuously increased, while the pH value significantly decreased. Compared with the control, soil organic matter, alkali-hydrolyzed nitrogen, available phosphorus, available potassium, and nitrate nitrogen contents increased significantly after 4 and 8 years of continuous cropping. Spearman correlation analysis showed that pH was negatively correlated with sucrase or sucrose and available phosphorus was positively correlated with alkaline phosphatase. Compared with the control, the diversity and abundance of bacterial and fungal communities in cucumber rhizosphere soil decreased after 4 and 12 years of continuous cropping. Continuous cropping led to a significant increase in the richness of the dominant phylum of cucumber rhizosphere soil. Principal coordinates analysis showed that, compared with the control, the soil microbial community structure was significantly separated after 4, 8, and 12 years of continuous cropping, and the microbial community structure was most similar after 4 and 8 years of continuous cropping. In addition, redundancy analysis showed that pH was the main driver of soil microbial dominance. In conclusion, continuous cropping of cucumber along the Yellow River irrigation area has led to the deterioration of soil nutrients and microbial communities in that region. This experiment provides a theoretical foundation for addressing the challenges associated with continuous cropping in cucumber cultivation.

Abstract
Crop rotation and other tillage systems can affect soil microbial communities and functions. Few studies have reported the response of soil spatial microbial communities to rotation under drought stress. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to explore the dynamic changes of the soil space microbial community under different drought stress-rotation patterns. In this study, two water treatments were set up, control W1 (mass water content 25%-28%), and drought W2 (mass water content 9%-12%). Four crop rotation patterns were set in each water content, spring wheat continuous (R1), spring wheat-potato (R2), spring wheat-potato-rape (R3) and spring wheat-rape (R4), for a total of eight treatments (W1R1, W1R2, W1R3, W1R4, W2R1, W2R2, W2R3, W2R4). Endosphere, rhizosphere and bulk soil of spring wheat in each treatment were collected, and root space microbial community data were generated. The soil microbial community changed under different treatments and their relationship with soil factors were analyzed using a co-occurrence network, mantel test, and other methods. The results revealed that the alpha diversity of microorganisms in the rhizosphere and bulk soil did not differ significantly, but it was significantly greater than in the endosphere. The bacteria community structure was more stable, fungi alpha-diversity significant changes (p < 0.05), that were more sensitive to the response of various treatments than bacteria. The co-occurrence network between fungal species was stable under rotation patterns (R2, R3, R4), while the community stability was poor under continuous cropping pattern (R1), and interactions were strengthened. Soil organic matter (SOM), microbial biomass carbon (MBC), and pH value were the most important factors dominating the bacteria community structural changed in the endosphere, rhizosphere, and bulk soil. The dominant factor that affected the fungal community structural changed in the endosphere, rhizosphere, and bulk soil was SOM. Therefore, we conclude that soil microbial community changes under the drought stress-rotation patterns are mainly influenced by soil SOM and microbial biomass content.

Abstract
Biogas slurry is a nutrient-rich secondary product of livestock feces digestion which is recycled as a crop plantation fertilizer and provides exogenous microbes to the soil. However, the effects of biogas slurry microbes on the soil resident community remain unknown. In this study, we examined the ecological consequences of long-term biogas slurry pulse on the soil resident community and found that it promoted crop yield and altered soil characteristics. The soil microbial ecosystem was altered as a result of organic amendments due to the exogenous input of microbes and nutrients. Nevertheless, the soil resident communities were highly resilient to long-term organic pulses, as evidenced by community diversity and composition. The two dominant bacterial species in biogas slurry were Sterolibacterium and Clostridium. Notably, the abundance of Clostridium in biogas slurry increased following long-term amendments, while other species such as GP1 and Subdivision3_genera_incertae_sedis decreased; which was consistent with the results of module-eigengene analysis. Long-term organic pulses shifted the balance of microbial community assembly from stochastic to deterministic processes. Overall, our findings indicated that organic pulses accompanied with bacterial invasion could be alleviated by the resilience of soil microbial communities, thereby emphasizing the importance of microbiota assemblage and network architecture.

Abstract
This paper aims to reveal the effects of multi-generational succession of eucalyptus on soil fertility, organic structure and biological properties. Soil samples were collected from eucalyptus plantations of different stand ages (5, 11, 17 and 21 years old) in a typical area in south Asia, soil organic fraction structure and content characteristics were investigated using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to explore influences of soil fertility, enzyme activity and organic fraction on stand biomass. FTIR analysis showed that 11 infrared absorption peaks existed in the soils of this study area, attributed to silicates, aromatics, carbonate ions, sugars, esters, polysaccharides, aliphatic hydrocarbons and phenolic alcohols. Combined with the results of peak area integration, the content of esters, aromatics and phenolic alcohols was significantly higher in 17- and 21-year-old stand soils than in control soils. The results of SEM showed that organic components were negatively related (p < 0.01) to enzyme activity and biomass, with standardized coefficients of 0.53 and 0.49, respectively. In summary, multi-generation succession of eucalyptus trees can change the structure of soil organic functional group composition and promote the enrichment of aromatic and phenolic alcohol functional groups. Such changes can directly inhibit the increase in eucalyptus biomass and indirectly negatively affect biomass by inhibiting enzyme activity.

Abstract
The quality of fermented plant products is closely related to microbial metabolism. Here, the associations of bacterial communities, metabolites, and functional genes were explored using multi-omics techniques based on plant leaf fermentation systems. The results showed significant changes in the structure of the microbial community, with a significant decrease in Firmicutes and a significant increase in Proteobacteria. In addition, the concentration of metabolites with antibacterial, antioxidant and aroma properties increased significantly, enhancing the quality of the fermented plant leaves. Integrated macrogenomic and metabolomic analyses indicated that amino acid metabolism could be key metabolic pathway affecting fermentation quality. Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, Firmicutes were actively involved in tyrosine metabolism (ko00350) and phenylalanine metabolism (ko00360), and are presumed to be the major groups responsible for synthesizing growth and flavor compounds. This study emphasized the important role of microorganisms in the changes of metabolites during the fermentation of plant leaves.

Abstract
The growth and development of Codonopsis tangshen, an important herb used in Chinese traditional medicine, have been seriously affected by continuous cropping obstacles. Therefore, understanding the molecular responses of C. tangshen to continuous cropping is imperative to improve its resistance to continuous cropping obstacles. Here, physiological and biochemical results showed that the levels of chlorophyll and malonaldehyde (MDA) were higher in the continuous cropping (LZ) group compared with those of the non-continuous cropping (FLZ) group, while superoxide dismutase (SOD) content was lower in the LZ group than in the FLZ group. Tandem mass tag (TMT)-based proteomic analysis was performed to investigate the response mechanism to continuous cropping obstacles in C. tangshen. A total of 70 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were significantly involved in relevant pathways, including photosynthesis, oxidative phosphorylation, ribosome activity, and secondary metabolites. The results suggest that these DEPs in C. tangshen might play a critical role in response to continuous cropping. These findings could provide scientific basis for improving C. tangshen’s resistance to continuous cropping obstacles.

Abstract
Continuous cropping of eggplant threatened regional ecological sustainability by facilitating replanting problems under mono-cropping conditions. Therefore, alternative agronomic and management practices are required to improve crop productivity at low environmental cost for the development of sustainable agricultural systems in different regions. This study examined changes in soil chemical properties, eggplant photosynthesis, and antioxidant functioning in five different vegetable cropping systems over a 2-year period., 2017 and 2018. The results showed that welsh onion-eggplant (WOE), celery-eggplant (CE), non-heading Chinese cabbage-eggplant (NCCE), and leafy lettuce-eggplant (LLE) rotation systems significantly impacted growth, biomass accumulation, and yield than fallow-eggplant (FE). In addition, various leafy vegetable cropping systems, WOE, CE, NCCE, and LLT induced significant increases in soil organic matter (SOM), available nutrients (N, P, and K), and eggplant growth by affecting the photosynthesis and related gas exchange parameters with much evident effect due to CE and NCCE. Moreover, eggplant raised with different leafy vegetable rotation systems showed higher activity of antioxidant enzymes, resulting in lower accumulation of hydrogen peroxide and hence reduced oxidative damage to membranes. In addition, fresh and dry plant biomass was significantly increased due to crop rotation with leafy vegetables. Therefore, we concluded that leafy vegetable crop rotation is a beneficial management practice to improve the growth and yield of eggplant.

Insights into Genomic Evolution and the Potential Genetic Basis of Klebsiella variicola subsp. variicola ZH07 Reveal Its Potential for Plant Growth Promotion and Autotoxin Degradation. Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0084622. [PMID: 36377943 PMCID: PMC9769570 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.00846-22] [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] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The accumulation of autotoxins in soil causes continuous cropping obstacle stress in crops, and the bioremediation of autotoxins by microorganisms is an efficient process. In this study, strain ZH07 was isolated from the peanut rhizosphere and was found to be utilizing multiple autotoxins as its carbon sources. Based on its genomic characteristics and a phylogenetic analysis, ZH07 represents a member of Klebsiella variicola subsp. variicola. A comparative genomic analysis exhibited evolutionary dynamics exhibited by mobile genetic elements (MGEs), strain-specific genes, potential horizontal genes, and evolutionary constraints driven by purifying selection, which facilitated its genomic adaptation to rhizosphere soil. Genome mining revealed the potential genomic properties associated with plant growth promotion, such as nitrogen fixation, indole acetic acid synthesis, phosphonate solubilization and assimilation, siderophore production, and secondary metabolite synthesis. Moreover, abundant genes putatively responsible for the biodegradation of aromatic xenobiotics, including benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, vanillic acid, protocatechuic acid, phenylacetic acid, and p-hydroxybenzoic acid were also observed in the ZH07 genome. Compared to autotoxin stress alone, the combination of ZH07 application promoted peanut germination and seedling growth. Our analysis revealed the genetic adaptation of ZH07 to the rhizosphere environment and the potential genetic basis and effectiveness of the isolate to serve as a plant growth stimulator. IMPORTANCE Continuous cropping obstacles reduce the production and quality of agricultural products, and the application of rhizosphere beneficial microbes is an important strategy. Strain ZH07 showed autotoxin-degrading and plant growth-promoting capacities. The objectives of this study were to characterize its genomic evolution and the potential genetic basis of the autotoxin degradation and plant growth promotion. ZH07 represents a member of Klebsiella variicola subsp. variicola, based on genomic and phylogenetic analyses. Its genomic components have undergone different degrees of purifying selection, and the disparity in the evolutionary rate may be associated with its niche adaptation. A systematic analysis of the ZH07 genome identified the potential genetic basis that contributes to plant growth promotion and to aromatic xenobiotic biodegradation. This study demonstrates that plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) play important roles in autotoxin biodegradation and can be used as biofertilizers to enhance the growth of peanuts in response to continuous cropping obstacle stress.

Abstract
The continuous cropping obstacles of melons have become increasingly serious in recent years. To investigate this, we explored the effects and mechanisms of Bacillus subtilis C3 in control of the continuous cropping obstacles of melon. We provide a novel interaction model of the occurrence factors of continuous cropping obstacles. The dominant pathogen isolated from melon soil was Fusarium. Their hyphae were used as food to cultivate root-knot nematodes. The main phenolic acids in melon soil promoted the growth of Fusarium and indirectly increased the number of root-knot nematodes, but they also had direct toxic effects on melon root-knot nematodes. The simultaneous inoculation of the three had the strongest inhibitory effect on melon seedlings, while the inhibitory effect of paired inoculation was weaker than that of single inoculation. Therefore, the three balance each other, forming a vicious cycle. Bacillus subtilis C3 weakened the negative effects of this cycle on melon by eliminating phenolic acids and inhibiting the growth of Fusarium and root-knot nematodes. Simultaneously, they also alleviated the continuous cropping obstacles of melon by improving the composition and structure of the rhizosphere microbial community. Our results might be useful for the effective control of the continuous cropping obstacles of melon. IMPORTANCE The soil environment, crop growth and fruit quality of melons are negatively affected by long-term continuous cropping. It is important to study the mechanism of continuous cropping obstacles and their biological control. In this study, we propose a novel interaction model of the occurrence factors of continuous cropping obstacles. The dominant phenolic acids, pathogenic fungi, and root-knot nematodes from melon soil balance each other, forming a vicious cycle. Bacillus subtilis C3 weakened the negative effects of this cycle on melon by eliminating phenolic acids and inhibiting the growth of Fusarium and root-knot nematodes. In addition, C3 also improved the composition and structure of the melon rhizosphere microbial community. These results advance the study of the occurrence mechanism of continuous cropping obstacles and demonstrate an efficient and environmentally friendly biological control scheme.

Abstract
Root rot is a major disease of tobacco that causes crop losses of up to 15-20% of global tobacco production. The present study aimed to compare the fungal communities, and physicochemical properties of rhizosphere soil of root rot resistant (Yunyan 87; Y) and susceptible (Honghua Dajinyuan; H) tobacco varieties. Four treatments of each variety under continuous monocropping cultures included: control groups (HT0 and YT0); 2 years of continuous cropping (HT2 and YT2); 4 years of continuous cropping (HT4 and YT4); and 8 years of continuous cropping (YT8 and HT8). The soil physicochemical properties including available nitrogen (AN), available phosphorus (AP), available potassium (AK), and organic matter (OM) were increased (p < 0.05) from HT0 to HT8, whereas the resistant variety (Y) showed an inconsistent trend from YT0 to YT8. The pH was decreased (p < 0.05) from HT0 to HT8 and YT0 to YT8. Further, the disease incidence rate and disease index of the H variety also increased (p < 0.05) from HT0 to HT8. Alpha diversity analysis revealed that susceptible variety had higher fungal diversity from HT0 to HT8, while resistant variety exhibited lower diversity from YT0 to YT8. Ascomycota and Mortierellomycota were the dominant phyla in H and Y. Ascomycota abundance was increased (p < 0.05), whereas Mortierellomycota was decreased (p < 0.05) for continuous cropping years in H and Y. Penicillium, Fusarium, and Chrysosporium were the top three abundant genera in both varieties. The relative abundance of Penicillium spp. was increased (p < 0.05) in Y, whereas decreased (p < 0.05) in H variety. Specifically, Chrysosporium spp. was increased (p < 0.05) whereas Fusarium spp. was decreased (p < 0.05) in YT2. Redundancy analysis (RDA) revealed that fungal communities in H and Y rhizospheres were influenced by pH and carbon content, respectively. The top three highly enriched (p < 0.05) pathways in both varieties were fatty acid elongation, fatty acid β-oxidation I, and glyoxylate cycle. Our study concluded that resistant variety exhibited lower fungal diversity and functionally enriched metabolic pathways than susceptible variety that might be the result of molecular breeding practices, however, the relative abundance of Penicillium spp. were increased in resistant variety under long-term monoculture cropping.

Abstract
Purpose
This study was purposely designed to understand the effects of intercropping banana and sweet potato on soil microbial community. The research question addressed was what were the differences in population number, population diversity and dominant population of soil microorganisms between interplant bananas with sweet potatoes and banana monoculture.
Methods
The Illumina MiSeq high-throughput sequencing technology was used to detect and analyse the population composition and structure of soil microorganisms in banana field.
Results
The results showed that from May to September, the number of soil bacterial population in intercropping sweet potato was 5.54-28.67% higher than that in monoculture, and the richness and diversity of the population were significantly or extremely significantly higher than that in monoculture. The number of dominant bacterial population was less than that in monoculture, and the relative abundance of non dominant population was 10.58 - 58.81% higher than that in monoculture. The number, abundance and diversity of soil fungal populations in intercropping were higher than those in monoculture.
Conclusions
The intercropping of banana and sweet potato has a significant effect on regulating the composition structure of soil microbial population and improving the abundance and diversity of microbial population. There has a great significance to improve the micro ecological environment of banana root soil and promote the stable and sustainable development of banana industry.

Abstract
Medicinal plants (MPs) are important resources widely used in the treatment and prevention of diseases and have attracted much attention owing to their significant antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and other activities. However, soil degradation, caused by continuous cropping, excessive chemical fertilizers and pesticide residues and heavy metal contamination, seriously restricts the growth and quality formation of MPs. Microorganisms, as the major biota in soil, play a critical role in the restoration of the land ecosystem. Rhizosphere microecology directly or indirectly affects the growth and development, metabolic regulation and active ingredient accumulation of MPs. Microbial resources, with the advantages of economic efficiency, harmless to environment and non-toxic to organisms, have been recommended as a promising alternative to conventional fertilizers and pesticides. The introduction of beneficial microbes promotes the adaptability of MPs to adversity stress by enhancing soil fertility, inhibiting pathogens and inducing systemic resistance. On the other hand, it can improve the medicinal quality by removing soil pollutants, reducing the absorption and accumulation of harmful substances and regulating the synthesis of secondary metabolites. The ecological and economic benefits of the soil microbiome in agricultural practices are increasingly recognized, but the current understanding of the interaction between soil conditions, root exudates and microbial communities and the mechanism of rhizosphere microecology affecting the secondary metabolism of MPs is still quite limited. More research is needed to investigate the effects of the microbiome on the growth and quality of different medicinal species. Therefore, the present review summarizes the main soil issues in medicinal plant cultivation, the functions of microbes in soil remediation and plant growth promotion and the potential mechanism to further guide the use of microbial resources to promote the ecological cultivation and sustainable development of MPs.

Abstract
Organic acids secreted by plants, such as p-hydroxybenzoic acid, ferulic acid, cinnamic acid, and benzoic acid, can inhibit seed germination and root growth. The effects of root and soil leaching liquor from orchards on the growth of M. hupehensis Rehd. seedlings under sand culture are studied; the seedlings are sampled at 15, 30, 45, and 60 d. Changes in the amount of root exudates are determined using HPLC. Low concentrations of root leaching liquor (A1) and soil leaching liquor (B1) significantly promoted plant growth and chlorophyll synthesis; high concentrations of root leaching liquor (A6) and soil leaching liquor (B4-6) inhibited growth. Low concentrations of soil leaching liquor had no significant effect on the POD, SOD, and CAT activities. A5-6 and B5-6 significantly decreased Fv/Fm and qP values, respectively, and increased NPQ values. All root and soil leaching liquor treatments inhibited the secretion of gallic acid, hydroxybenzoic acid, benzoic acid, and phloridzin, and promoted the secretion of caffeic acid. The root leaching liquor treatments inhibited the secretion of catechin and promoted the secretion of phloretin. The soil leaching liquor treatments promoted the secretion of cinnamic acid. The secretion of other phenolic acids is likely associated with the different concentrations of leaching liquor.

Abstract
Pinellia ternata (Thunb.) is a famous traditional Chinese medicine with high medicinal value, but its culture is strongly hindered by the continuous cropping obstacles (CCO) which are tightly associated with allelopathic effects. Deciphering the response mechanisms of P. ternata to allelochemicals is critical for overcoming the CCO. Here, we elucidate the response of P. ternata to phenolic acids treatment via physiological indices, cellular approaches, and transcriptome analysis. Phenolic acids showed a significant effect on the growth of P. ternata seedlings, similar to the phenotype of continuous cropping. Cellular analysis demonstrated that phenolic acids remarkably induced root cell death. Physiological analysis revealed that phenolic acids induced the overaccumulated of H2O2 and O 2 - in root cells. However, two exogenous antioxidants (L-ascorbic acid and β-gentiobiose) aid in the scavenging of over-accumulated H2O2 and O 2 - by promoting the antioxidant enzyme activity such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), and catalase (CAT). Transcriptome analysis demonstrated that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) related to the cell wall degeneration and reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism were upregulated by phenolic acid treatment. In addition, downregulated DEGs involved in sucrose and starch metabolism and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathways decreased the key metabolites contents. Taken together, phenolic acids caused root cell death by inducing the overaccumulation of H2O2 and O 2 - , and L-ascorbic acid and β-gentiobiose effectively alleviated ROS stress. The present study elucidates the underlying mechanism of the allelopathic effect of phenolic acids, offers valuable information for further understanding the mechanism of CCO, and could contribute to improving guidance for further P. ternata production.

Abstract
After years of continuous cultivation of faba beans (Vicia faba L.), autotoxic substances accumulate in the soil, leading to a high incidence of Fusarium oxysporum (FOF) wilt. Faba bean-wheat intercropping is often used to alleviate these problems. The goal of this research was to explore the role of benzoic acid and cinnamic acid in promoting the occurrence of faba bean Fusarium wilt and the potential mechanism of faba bean-wheat intercropping to control the occurrence of this disease. We established a field experiment and a hydroponic experiment that involved the inoculation of FOF and the exploration of exogenous addition of cinnamic acid and benzoic acid at different concentrations, the effects on the degree of peroxidation, resistance system, and ultrastructure of faba bean roots. In addition, the antioxidative response of faba bean-wheat intercropping against the autotoxicity of benzoic acid and cinnamic acid was examined. In the field experiment, compared with monoculture, faba bean-wheat intercropping effectively controlled the occurrence of Fusarium wilt, significantly reduced the contents of H2O2 and O2 - in faba bean roots, increased the expression and activity of antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT), maintained cell stability, and significantly reduced the contents of benzoic acid and cinnamic acid in faba bean rhizosphere. In the pot experiment, it was found that compared with the control, different concentrations of benzoic acid and cinnamic acid (50, 100, and 200 mg·L-1) significantly increased the content of H2O2 and O2 - in faba bean, decreased the activity and gene expression of antioxidant enzymes SOD and CAT, and damaged cell membrane structure. Furthermore, it promoted the occurrence of Fusarium wilt of faba bean. The faba bean-wheat intercropping alleviated the stress. Benzoic acid and cinnamic acid can increase the content of hydrogen peroxide and superoxide anions in faba bean plants, reduce the enzymatic activity and expression of antioxidant enzyme genes, damage the cell membrane structure, and promote the occurrence of faba bean Fusarium wilt. The faba bean-wheat intercropping can effectively alleviate the autotoxicity of benzoic acid and cinnamic acid and reduce the occurrence of faba bean Fusarium wilt.

Abstract
Perennial cropping has been an alternative land use type due to its widely accepted role in increasing soil carbon sequestration. However, how soil organic carbon (SOC) changes and its underlying mechanisms under different cropping years are still elusive. A chronosequence (0-, 3-, 6-, 20-year) of perennial mugwort cropping was chosen to explore the SOC dynamics and the underlying mechanisms in agricultural soils of Northern China Plain. The results revealed that SOC first increased and then decreased along the 20-year chronosequence. The similar patterns were also found in soil properties (including soil ammonium nitrogen, total nitrogen and phosphorus) and two C-degrading hydrolytic enzyme activities (i.e., α-glucosidase and β-glucosidase). The path analysis demonstrated that soil ammonium nitrogen, total nitrogen, and plant biomass affected SOC primarily through the indirect impacts on soil pH, total phosphorus availability, and C-degrading hydrolytic enzyme activities. In addition, the contributions of soil properties are greater than those of biotic factors (plant biomass) to changes in SOC across the four mugwort cropping years. Nevertheless, the biotic factors may play more important roles in regulating SOC than abiotic factors in the long run. Moreover, SOC reached its maximum and was equaled to that under the conventional rotation when cropping mugwort for 7.44 and 14.88 years, respectively, which has critical implications for sustainable C sequestration of agricultural soils in Northern China Plain. Our observations suggest that short-term but not long-term perennial mugwort cropping is an alternative practice benefiting soil C sequestration and achieving the Carbon Neutrality goal in China.

Abstract
Crop production and water productivity may be impacted by diverse crop rotation and management practices. A field study was conducted from 2017-2020 in the Loess Plateau to evaluate the effects of crop rotation sequences on pre-planting and post-harvest soil water storage (SWS), annualized crop yield, water use, and water productivity. Crops in rotation included oil flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) (F), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (W), potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) (P). Twelve 4-year-cycle crop rotation treatments, along with a continuous oil flax treatment as a baseline, were included. The results showed that the average soil water content under the 0-150 cm soil layer in all treatments was increased after one rotation cycle, and the PWFW treatment achieved the highest SWC (17.1%). The average soil water storage (winter fallow season) and evapotranspiration (ETa) (growing season) under different crop rotation sequences were lower than those under continuous oil flax cropping. The ETa of FFFF increased by 28.9, 2.7, 15.3, and 28.4%, compared to average crop rotations in 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020, respectively. Crop rotation had a significant effect on average annual yield and water use efficiency (WUE), which varied by year and rotation sequence. The crop rotations with the highest grain yield of oil flax were FFWP (2017), WFWP (2018),WPFF (2019) and FWPF (2020); the grain yield of wheat was highest when the two pre-crops (previously cultivated crops) were F-F, and potato yield was highest when the two pre-crops were W-F (except 2018). On average, the WUE of oil flax was 8.6, 38.7, 22.7, and 42.1% lower with FFFF than other diversity crop rotations in 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020. We found that the WUE was not the largest when the grain yield of oil flax and wheat was highest. The treatments with maximum grain yield and WUE were not consistent. Our findings also revealed that wheat-potato-oil flax or potato-wheat-oil flax rotation could increase oil flax grain yields while wheat-oil flax-potato-oil flax markedly improved oil flax WUE.

Abstract
Long-term monoculture cropping and overfertilization degrade soil fertility, which reduces crop growth and promotes the development of soil-borne diseases. However, it remains unclear what the temporal effects of the above factors are on the tomato yield and microbial community structure. Thus, a greenhouse experiment with different amounts of fertilization [2,196 kg ha−1 (control) and 6,588 kg ha−1 (overfertilization) of inorganic fertilizers (NPK)] was carried out with the soils used previously for 1, 2, and 12 years under monoculture of tomato. A 12-year overfertilization decreased soil pH by 1.37 units. Soil electrical conductivity (EC) and concentrations of soil nutrients are enhanced with the increase in tomato cropping duration. Higher content of soil nutrients was found under overfertilization compared to the control in the 12-year soil. Overfertilization decreased the activity of β-1,4-glucosidase (BG) and oxidase compared to the control in the 12-year soil. Bacterial diversity and richness decreased by 6 and 31%, respectively, under overfertilization in 12-year soil compared to the control. The relative abundance of Gemmatimonas and Gp6 in 12-year soil under overfertilization was 17 and 78%, respectively, lower than in control soil. Soil pH and total carbon (TC) were the major factors explaining changes in microbial composition. A 38% decrease in yield was caused by overfertilization in 12-year soil compared to the control. Microbial community composition was the main factor that moderated tomato yield. In addition, fertilization rather than cropping duration had a greater impact on tomato yield. Therefore, our results suggest that long-term overfertilization influenced soil pH, soil TC, and soil microbial community composition to regulate tomato yield.

Abstract
Exogenous application of nitrogen (N) and phosphate (P) has been demonstrated to alleviate apple replant disease (ARD). Yet, the effect of controlled-release diammonium phosphate (C-DAP), which continuously supply N and P for ARD control, is still poorly understood. Applying C-DAP markedly alleviated the typical symptoms of ARD. C-DAP maintained soil N and P at relatively high and stable levels during the entire growth period of the replanted seedlings, thus, limiting the copy number of the four key pathogenic Fusarium species that cause ARD. Particularly, continuously supplying N and P by C-DAP established a higher fungal diversity than that of conventional diammonium phosphate and induced the fungal community to be more similar to fumigated soil. The positive effect of C-DAP originated from the synergistic effects of regulating microorganisms and enhancing the resistance of the plant caused by a continuous nutrient supply. These findings provide a new perspective in the management of soil-borne diseases.

Xiong J, Peng S, Liu Y, Yin H, Zhou L, Zhou Z, Tan G, Gu Y, Zhang H, Huang J, Meng D. Soil properties, rhizosphere bacterial community, and plant performance respond differently to fumigation and bioagent treatment in continuous cropping fields. Front Microbiol 2022; 13:923405. [PMID: 35935223 PMCID: PMC9354655 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.923405] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2022] [Accepted: 06/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Continuous cropping barriers lead to huge agriculture production losses, and fumigation and biological agents are developed to alleviate the barriers. However, there is a lack of literature on the differences between strong chemical fumigant treatment and moderate biological agent treatment. In this study, we investigated those differences and attempted to establish the links between soil properties, rhizosphere microbial community, and plant performance in both fumigation- and bioagent-treated fields. The results showed that the fumigation had a stronger effect on both soil functional microbes, i.e., ammonia oxidizers and soil-borne bacterial pathogens, and therefore, led to a significant change in soil properties, higher fertilizer efficiency, lower disease infections, and improved plant growth, compared with untreated control fields. Biological treatment caused less changes to soil properties, rhizosphere bacterial community, and plant physiology. Correlation and modeling analyses revealed that the bioagent effect was mainly direct, whereas fumigation resulted in indirect effects on alleviating cropping barriers. A possible explanation would be the reconstruction of the soil microbial community by the fumigation process, which would subsequently lead to changes in soil characteristics and plant performance, resulting in the effective alleviation of continuous cropping barriers.

The Deterioration of Agronomical Traits of the Continuous Cropping of Stevia Is Associated With the Dynamics of Soil Bacterial Community. Front Microbiol 2022; 13:917000. [PMID: 35847059 PMCID: PMC9277660 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.917000] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2022] [Accepted: 05/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni is grown worldwide as an important, natural sweetener resource plant. The yield of steviol glycosides (SVglys) is greatly influenced by continuous cropping. In this study, we collected the roots, rhizosphere soils, and bulk soils from 2 years of continuous cropping (Y2) and 8 years of continuous cropping (Y8). A high-throughput sequencing technology based on Illumina Hiseq 2500 platform was used to study the structure and diversity of bacterial communities in the roots and soils of stevia with different years of continuous cropping. The results demonstrated that although the content of a group of SVglys was significantly increased in stevia of long-term continuous cropping, it inhibited the growth of plants and lowered the leaf dry weight; as a result, the total amount of SVglys was significantly decreased. Meanwhile, continuous cropping changed the physicochemical properties and the bacterial composition communities of soil. The different sampling sources of the root, rhizosphere soil, and bulk soil had no impact on the richness of bacterial communities, while it exhibited obvious effects on the diversity of bacterial communities. Continuous cropping had a stronger effect on the bacterial community composition in rhizosphere soil than in root and bulk soil. Based on linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe), in the rhizosphere soil of Y8, the relative abundance of some beneficial bacterial genera of Sphingomonas, Devosia, Streptomyces, and Flavobacterium decreased significantly, while the relative abundance of Polycyclovorans, Haliangium, and Nitrospira greatly increased. Moreover, the soil pH and nutrient content, especially the soil organic matter, were correlated with the relative abundance of predominant bacteria at the genus level. This study provides a theoretical basis for uncovering the mechanism of obstacles in continuous stevia cropping and provides guidance for the sustainable development of stevia.

Abstract
Indole and phenol often coexist in the coking wastewater, while the effects of phenol on microbial communities of indole metabolism were less explored. In this study, the microbial interactions within activated sludge microbial communities stimulated by indole (group A) or by indole and phenol (group B) were systematically investigated in sequencing batch reactors (SBRs). The results showed that the removal of indole was increased by adding phenol. By using high-throughput sequencing technology, it was found that α-diversity was reduced in both groups. According to the relative abundance analysis, the indole-degrading genus Comamonas was the core genus in both groups (33.94% and 61.40%). But another indole-degrading genus Pseudomonas was only enriched in group A with 12.22% relative abundance. Meanwhile, common aromatic degrading genus Dyella and Thermomonas were enriched only in group B. It was found that the relative abundance of cytochrome P450 and styrene degradation enzymes were increased in group B by PICRUSt analysis. Based on the phylogenetic molecular ecological networks (pMENs), module hub OTU_1149 (Burkholderia) was only detected in group B, and the positive interactions between the key functional genus Burkholderia and other bacteria were increased. This study provides new insights into our understanding of indole metabolism communities stimulated by phenol, which would provide useful information for practical coking wastewater treatment.

Insights into the Interactions Between Root Phenotypic Traits and the Rhizosphere Bacterial Community. Curr Microbiol 2022; 79:176.

Abstract
The root phenotypic traits have been considered as important factors in shaping the rhizosphere microbiome and regulating plant growth. However, the relationships between root phenotypic traits and the rhizosphere bacterial community remain unclear. We investigated two fields with different developing tobacco roots by a long-term positioning test in Hengshi. The well-developed root system (WDR) showed much more superiority in root phenotypic traits, including total root length, total projection area, surface area, and root tip number, than the underdeveloped root system. The specific root traits in WDR provided more ecological niches for the rhizosphere microorganisms, contributing to a more diverse microbial community and a more complex microbial network. The total root length and root tip number were the key factors shaping bacterial communities in the rhizosphere. In turn, the phyla Acidobacteria and Bacteroidetes might play vital roles in modifying root development and promoting plant growth according to their positive correlation with root phenotypic traits. Linking root phenotypic traits to the microbiome may enhance our understanding of rhizospheric interactions and their roles in developing rhizosphere ecosystems.

Abstract
Continuous cropping leads to the development of serious fungal diseases in tobacco plants and depleted yield of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), which can be mitigated by organic fertilization. Yet, we know little about how organic fertilizers affect the fungal community of continuous cropping tobacco soil. In this study, we investigated the soil fungal community after 11 years of tobacco planting with chemical fertilization (CF) or chemical fertilization combined with organic fertilizers obtained from plant or animal origin, including oil cake (CFO), straw (CFS), and farmyard fertilizer (CFM). The predominant phyla of Ascomycota (70%) and Mortierellomycota (15%) were identified in all the treatments. A significantly higher proportion of Pyrenochaetopsis and lower relative abundance of Sordariomycetes were observed in the CFM group compared to the controls. Compared to CF and non-fertilized control (CK), CFO and CFS led to higher species richness (P < 0.05), while CFM led to a less uniform fungal community, indicated by lower Shannon and higher Simpson diversity indices (P < 0.05). Pearson's correlation and redundancy analysis suggested that fertilizations primarily influenced the fungal community by altering the soil nutrient conditions, among which soil organic carbon and total phosphorus significantly correlated with the fungal diversity and community composition (P < 0.05). Notably, FUNGuild annotation suggested that while other treatments showed no significant effect on the fungal trophic modes, CFM strongly increased the abundance of saprotrophic fungi by more than 30% (P < 0.05), thus preventing the prevalence of potential pathotypes and symbionts. The results suggest that the type of organic fertilizers is essential to the long-term effects of organic application on the fungal community, and the animal-origin manure seems to be a better choice than plant-origin materials in continuous cropping tobacco fields.

Abstract
Aims In garlic cultivation, long-time monoculture has resulted in continuous-cropping obstacles. However, the cause has not been studied to date. Methods We analyzed soils from garlic fields in Pengzhou, China, to determine continuous-cropping obstacle related changes in soil physicochemical properties and enzyme activities, and in the diversity and composition of bacterial and fungal communities. Furthermore, we examined the relationships between soil properties and the bacterial and fungal communities. Results The soil pH and the soil catalase, urease, invertase, and polyphenol oxidase activities were lower in the cropping obstacle soil than in the healthy control soil. The richness and diversity of the bacteria were lower in the cropping obstacle soil than in the control. The bacterial and fungal communities in the cropping obstacle soil were clearly different from those in the control soil. The differences in bacterial communities between the cropping obstacle soil and the control soil were associated with differences in pH and available potassium content. The taxa with higher relative abundances in the cropping obstacle soils included potential plant pathogens and the taxa with lower relative abundances included potential plant growth promoters. Conclusion The enrichment of plant pathogens and the depletion of plant growth promoting fungi may have contributed to the poor growth of garlic in the cropping obstacle soil. The enzyme activity and microbial community differences were associated with acidification that was likely an important factor in the deterioration of the soil ecological environment and the garlic cropping obstacle. The results provide information to guide agricultural practices in cultivating garlic.

Abstract
Replant disease caused by continuous cropping obstacles commonly occurs in a Lilium brownii consecutive monoculture. To reveal the mechanisms contributing to the continuous cropping obstacles of L. brownii, four cropping patterns (fallow, L. brownii-rice rotation, newly planted L. brownii, and 2-year L. brownii consecutive monoculture) were designed, and Illumina MiSeq (16S rDNA and ITS) was utilized to detect shifts in the microbial community in the rhizosphere. Our result showed that planting of L. brownii significantly reduced soil pH. Consecutive monoculture of L. brownii can significantly decrease the diversity and abundance of soil bacteria, but markedly increase the diversity and abundance of soil fungi. Under the four planting pattern treatments, the changes in soil pH were consistent with the changes in the Shannon diversity index of soil bacterial communities, whereas we observed a negative correlation between soil pH and Shannon diversity index for fungi. The relative abundance of Lactobacillales significantly increased in soils of L. brownii consecutive monoculture, while Acidobacteriales, Solibacterales, and Xanthomonadales increased in soils of L. brownii-rice rotation and newly planted L. brownii. Collectively, this work aimed to elucidate the relationship between the L. brownii planting patterns and soil microbiome, thereby providing a theoretical basis for screening new biological agents that may contribute to resolving continuous cropping obstacles of L. brownii.

Abstract
In this study, the potential regulatory effects of fulvic acid extracted from paper mill effluent (PFA) in apple replant disease (ARD) were investigated through a comprehensive experimental evaluation of the effects of PFA on soil properties, growth inhibition of apple replant pathogens, and growth of replanted Malus hupehensis Rehd. seedlings. PFA with a relatively lower molecular weight was mainly composed of carbohydrates, lignin derivatives, and polysaccharides and was rich in functional groups such as carboxyl and phenolic hydroxyl groups. Treatment with PFA dosages ranging from 2 to 3 g/pot significantly increased available phosphorus (P) in soil by 47.5 to 57.5% when compared with the control without PFA, indicating that PFA had a positive effect in activating P. In addition, PFA stimulated the growth of replanted seedlings by promoting root elongation, enhancing leaf photosynthesis, and increasing the activity of root antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase, peroxidase, and catalase. However, no convincing evidence was found that application of different dosages of PFA had remarkable effects on soil pH, inorganic nitrogen, available potassium, organic matter, and the numbers of bacteria and fungi. Notably, PFA had no effect on the copy number of the main pathogenic fungi causing ARD, including Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium solani, Fusarium proliferatum, and Fusarium moniliforme. Overall, PFA can alleviate ARD to a certain extent mainly through its effects on improving the resilience of replanted young seedlings rather than by affecting soil microorganisms or providing nutrients.

Abstract
Sugar beet is vulnerable to years of continuous cropping, and allelopathy is one of the important factors leading to continuous cropping disorder. To explore the physiological and molecular mechanisms behind continuous cropping obstacles on sugar beet, this study combined transcriptomics and metabolomics to analyze the effects of different years of continuous cropping on metabolite changes, differential gene expression, and root exudate regulation in sugar beet. We collected sugar beet's root samples from 1-, 3-, and 5-year continuous cropping systems for metabolome and transcriptome analyses. Our data revealed that T3 and T5 had 50 and 33 metabolites significantly different from T1, respectively. The autotoxic substance salicylaldehyde was found to continuously accumulate in root exudates with increasing years of continuous cropping. Sucrose was highly reduced in T3 (4.05-fold decrease) and T5 (2.01-fold decrease) compared to T1. Respectively, 2,660 and 3,515 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were significantly regulated in T3 and T5 compared to T1. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses showed that metabolic pathways and biosynthesis of secondary metabolites were perturbed in T3 and T5 vs. T1. Integrated metabolomics analyses identified 73 DEGs involved in enriched metabolic pathways, all of which were the oxidation-reduction process pathways. In conclusion, this study provides evidence that continuous cropping obstacles can change the metabolome and transcriptome of sugar beet, affecting its growth and quality.

Abstract
The shortage of land resources restricts the sustainable development of agricultural production. Multiple cropping has been widely used in Southern China, but whether the continuous planting will cause a decline in soil quality and crop yield is unclear. To test whether multiple cropping could increase grain yield, we investigated the farmlands with different cultivation years (10-20 years, 20-40 years, and >40 years). Results showed that tobacco-rice multiple cropping rotation significantly increased soil pH, nitrogen nutrient content, and grain yield, and it increased the richness of the bacterial community. The farmland with 20-40 years of cultivation has the highest soil organic carbon (SOC), ammonium nitrogen, and grain yield, but there is no significant difference in the diversity and structure of the bacterial community in farmlands with different cultivation years. The molecular ecological network indicated that the stability of the bacterial community decreased across the cultivation years, which may result in a decline of farmland yields in multiple cropping system> 40 years. The Acidobacteria members as the keystone taxa (Zi ≥ 2.5 or Pi ≥ 0.62) appeared in the tobacco-rice multiple cropping rotation farmlands, and the highest abundance of Acidobacteria was found in the farmland with the highest SOC and ammonium nitrogen content, suggesting Acidobacteria Gp4, GP7, GP12, and GP17 are important taxa involved in the soil carbon and nitrogen cycle. Therefore, in this study, the multiple cropping systems for 20 years will not reduce the crop production potential, but they cannot last for more than 40 years. This study provides insights for ensuring soil quality and enhancing sustainable agricultural production capacity.
