Abstract
Ginseng, the dried root of Panax ginseng, contains ginsenosides and has long been used in Korea, China, and Japan to treat various symptoms. Many studies on the utility of ginseng have been conducted and in this paper we investigate recent trends in ginseng research. P. ginseng studies were collected from scientific databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and SciFindern) using the keywords "Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer", "ginsenosides", "genetic diversity", "biosynthesis", "cultivation", and "pharmacology". We identified 1208 studies up to and including September 2023: 549 studies on pharmacology, 262 studies on chemical components, 131 studies on molecular biology, 58 studies on cultivation, 71 studies on tissue culture, 28 studies on clinical trials, 123 reviews, and 49 studies in other fields. Many researchers focused on the characteristic ginseng component ginsenoside to elucidate the mechanism of ginseng's pharmacological action, the relationship between component patterns and cultivation areas and conditions, and gene expression.

Xia J, Liu N, Han J, Sun J, Xu T, Liu S. Transcriptome and metabolite analyses indicated the underlying molecular responses of Asian ginseng ( Panax ginseng) toward Colletotrichum panacicola infection. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1182685.

Abstract
Panax ginseng Meyer is one of the most valuable plants and is widely used in China, while ginseng anthracnose is one of the most destructive diseases. Colletotrichum panacicola could infect ginseng leaves and stems and causes serious anthracnose disease, but its mechanism is still unknown. Here, transcriptome and metabolism analyses of the host leaves were conducted to investigate the ginseng defense response affected by C. panacicola. Upon C. panacicola infection, ginseng transcripts altered from 14 to 24 h, and the expression of many defense-related genes switched from induction to repression. Consequently, ginseng metabolites in the flavonoid pathway were changed. Particularly, C. panacicola repressed plant biosynthesis of the epicatechin and naringin while inducing plant biosynthesis of glycitin, vitexin/isovitexin, and luteolin-7-O-glucoside. This work indicates C. panacicola successful infection of P. ginseng by intervening in the transcripts of defense-related genes and manipulating the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, which might have antifungal activities.

Tagele SB, Kim RH, Jeong M, Lim K, Jung DR, Lee D, Kim W, Shin JH. Soil amendment with cow dung modifies the soil nutrition and microbiota to reduce the ginseng replanting problem. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1072216. [PMID: 36760641 PMCID: PMC9902886 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2023.1072216] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 01/11/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Ginseng is a profitable crop worldwide; however, the ginseng replanting problem (GRP) is a major threat to its production. Soil amendment is a non-chemical method that is gaining popularity for alleviating continuous cropping obstacles, such as GRP. However, the impact of soil amendment with either cow dung or canola on GRP reduction and the associated soil microbiota remains unclear. In the present study, we evaluated the effect of soil amendment with cow dung, canola seed powder, and without amendment (control), on the survival of ginseng seedling transplants, the soil bacterial and fungal communities, and their associated metabolic functions. The results showed that cow dung increased ginseng seedling survival rate by 100 percent and had a remarkable positive effect on ginseng plant growth compared to control, whereas canola did not. Cow dung improved soil nutritional status in terms of pH, electrical conductivity, NO 3 - , total carbon, total phosphorus, and available phosphorus. The amplicon sequencing results using Illumina MiSeq showed that canola had the strongest negative effect in reducing soil bacterial and fungal diversity. On the other hand, cow dung stimulated beneficial soil microbes, including Bacillus, Rhodanobacter, Streptomyces, and Chaetomium, while suppressing Acidobacteriota. Community-level physiological profiling analysis using Biolog Ecoplates containing 31 different carbon sources showed that cow dung soil had a different metabolic activity with higher utilization rates of carbohydrates and polymer carbon sources, mainly Tween 40 and beta-methyl-d-glucoside. These carbon sources were most highly associated with Bacillota. Furthermore, predicted ecological function analyses of bacterial and fungal communities showed that cow dung had a higher predicted function of fermentation and fewer functions related to plant pathogens and fungal parasites, signifying its potential to enhance soil suppressiveness. Co-occurrence network analysis based on random matrix theory (RMT) revealed that cow dung transformed the soil microbial network into a highly connected and complex network. This study is the first to report the alleviation of GRP using cow dung as a soil amendment, and the study contributes significantly to our understanding of how the soil microbiota and metabolic alterations via cow dung can aid in GRP alleviation.

Synergistic effect of co-culture rhizosphere Streptomyces: A promising strategy to enhance antimicrobial activity and plant growth-promoting function. Front Microbiol 2022; 13:976484. [PMID: 36033877 PMCID: PMC9403869 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.976484] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2022] [Accepted: 07/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Rhizosphere Streptomyces is one of the important types of rhizosphere microorganisms that plays an important role in promoting plant growth and controlling plant diseases to maintain agricultural ecosystem balance and green ecological agriculture development as beneficial bacteria. Microbial co-culture simulates the complex biocommunity in nature, which has more advantages than the monoculture with a synergistic effect. As the key signal mediums of microorganisms, plants, and their interactions, microbial metabolites are of great significance in revealing their functional mechanism. In this study, two potential plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, Streptomyces albireticuli MDJK11, and Streptomyces alboflavus MDJK44, were selected to explore the effects of co-culture and monoculture on plant growth promotion and disease prevention, and the metabolic material basis was analyzed by metabonomics. Results showed that Streptomyces MDJK11, MDJK44 monoculture, and co-culture condition all showed good growth promoting and antimicrobial effects. Moreover, as compared to the monoculture, the co-culture showed the advantage of a synergistic enhancement effect. LC-MS-based metabonomics analysis showed the metabolic material bases of Streptomyces for plant growth promotion and disease prevention were mainly plant hormone and antibiotics and the co-culture condition could significantly stimulate the production of plant hormone promoters and macrolide, cyclic peptide, and aminoglycoside antibiotics. The study proved that the co-cultures of S. albireticuli MDJK11 and S. alboflavus MDJK44 have great potential in crop growth promotion and disease prevention.
