This study aimed to investigate the impact of nitrogen (N) fertilizer on bacterial community composition and diversity in the rhizosphere and endosphere of rice at different growth stages. Two treatments, N0 (no N application) and N1 (270 kg N ha), were implemented, with samples collected during the jointing, tasseling, and maturity stages. High-throughput sequencing was used to analyze the structure and composition of bacterial communities associated with Huaidao No.

Serpentine soils are characterized by high concentrations of heavy metals (HMs) and limited essential nutrients with remarkable endemic plant diversity, yet the mechanisms enabling plant adaptation to thrive in such harsh environments remain largely unknown. Full-length 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, coupled with physiological and functional assays, was used to explore root-associated bacterial community composition and their metabolic and ecological functions. The results revealed that serpentine plant species exhibited significantly higher metal transfer factor values compared to non-serpentine plant species, particularly evident in Bidens pilosa, Miscanthus floridulus, and Leucaena leucocephala.

Article Synopsis
  • Enhancing crop productivity is crucial for food security, and biostimulants like zaxinone and its mimics show promise in boosting plant growth and yield.
  • Their application was studied to see how they affect soil and rice root microbiota, focusing on bacterial and fungal communities at different growth stages.
  • Results indicate that these treatments initially reduced beneficial microbes in the roots but allowed for a recovery in microbial diversity later, highlighting their potential as eco-friendly solutions for agriculture.

Bacteria and ectomycorrhizal fungi (EcMF) represent two of the most dominant plant root-associated microbial groups on Earth, and their interactions continue to gain recognition as significant factors that shape forest health and resilience. Yet we currently lack a focused review that explains the state of bacteria-EcMF interaction research in the context of experimental approaches and technological advancements. To these ends, we illustrate the utility of studying bacteria-EcMF interactions, detail outstanding questions, outline research priorities in the field, and provide a suite of approaches that can be used to promote experimental reproducibility, field advancement, and collaboration.
