Impact of Vegetation Restoration on Soil Fungal Community Structure in Karst Rocky Desertification Areas

In this paper,managed forest(MF)and natural forest(NF)in the Huajiang Demonstration Zone of Guanling,Guizhou were selected as research objects,and cropland(CL)was taken as control.High-throughput sequencing technology was used to study the characteristics of fungal community composition and species diversity in the surface(0-10 cm)soil of each restoration measure,in order to reveal the dominant soil fungal groups and fungal community composition in karst rocky desertification areas,which was conducive to a more comprehensive understanding of the soil conditions of different vegetation restoration measures.Research has shown that vegetation restoration significantly affected the diversity of soil fungal community,with significant increases in Sob index,Ace index,and Chao index.The vegetation restoration has significantly changed the composition of fungal community.The dominant fungi in the CL topsoil are Sordariomycetes(62.28%),Dothideomycetes(12.34%),and Eurotiomycetes(9.12%);the dominant fungi in the MF soil are Sordariomycetes(45.05%),Dothideomycetes(14.74%),and Mortierellomycetes(10.40%);the dominant fungi in the NF soil are unclassified fungal community(26.38%),Sordariomycetes(19.78%),and Agaricomycetes(13.82%).Vegetation restoration has changed the key fungal groups in the soil.Sordariomycetes,Fusarium,and Setophoma are the key dominant fungal groups in CL soil;Dioszegia is key dominant fungal group in MF soil;c_unclassified_k_Fungi,p_unclassified_k_Fungi,o_unclassified_k_Fungi,f_unclassified_k_Fungi,g_unclassified_k_Fungi,Teichospora,and Diaporthe are key dominant fungal groups in NF soil.

Rhizosphere Soil Fungal Diversity and Soil Physicochemical Properties of Different Vegetations in Tundra of Changbai Mountain

By studying the diversity and community structure of rhizosphere soil fungi of different plants in the tundra on the northern slope of Changbai Mountain, it provides theoretical support for the restoration of environmental degradation and in-depth study of fungal diversity in the tundra of Changbai Mountain. High-throughput sequencing technology was used to determine the ITS1 region of fungal amplicons, so as to analyze the diversity of fungal communities in the rhizosphere soil of six plants in the tundra of Changbai Mountain, and to analyze the correlation between the environment and the diversity and richness of fungal communities in combination with relevant soil physical and chemical factors. The diversity and richness of fungal community in the rhizosphere soil of six plants in Changbai Mountain tundra were different. The Simpson and Shannon indexes of Saxifraga stolonifera Curt were the highest, and the richness of fungal community in Dryas octopetala was the highest. The analysis of fungal community composition showed that the fungal colonies in plant rhizosphere soil samples mainly belonged to Ascomycota and Basidiomycota, which were the main dominant phyla. Mortierella, Fusarium and Sordariomycetes are common fungal genera in the rhizosphere soil of six plants, but their abundances are different among different plants. Water content was negatively correlated with fungal diversity, and TP was positively correlated with fungal community diversity. There were some differences in the composition and diversity of rhizosphere soil fungal communities of six plants in Changbai Mountain tundra. Ascomycota and Basidiomycota were the main soil fungal phyla in the rhizosphere of six plants in Changbai Mountain tundra. The results could provide theoretical guidance for ecological protection of Changbai Mountain tundra.

Soil Fungal Diversity and Community Composition in Response to Continuous Sweet Potato Cropping Practices

Soil fungi are extremely important for maintaining soil health and plant production in agricultural systems.Currently,the effect of continuous cropping of sweet potato on soil fungal communities and physiochemical parameters has not been well documented.In the present study,four sweet potato fields consecutively monocultured for 1,2,3,and 4 years were selected to investigate the effect of monoculture on soil fungal communities through Illumina MiSeq sequencing.Continuous cropping of sweet potatoes dramatically altered the fungal community composition,whereas fungal diversity was almost unchanged.Ascomycota and Basidiomycota were the most abundant phyla in all soil samples,accounting for 32.59%and 21.14%of the average relative abundance,respectively.The abundance of some potential pathogens,such as Ascobolus spp,specifically Ascobolus stercorarius,and some unknown fungi increased significantly as the sweet potato monoculture period increased,and their presence were highly positively correlated with disease incidence.In contrast,Basidiomycota,Bullera,Fusarium and Trichocladium most likely play roles as antagonists of sweet potato disease development,as their relative abundance decreased significantly over time and were negatively correlated with disease incidence.Redundancy and correlation analyses revealed that soil pH and organic carbon content were the most important factors driving these changes.Our findings provided a dynamic overview of the fungal community and presented a clear scope for screening beneficial fungi and pathogens of sweet potato.

Plant diversity is coupled with soil fungal diversity in a natural temperate steppe of northeastern China

Soil fungi and aboveground plant play vital functions in terrestrial ecosystems,while the relationship between aboveground plant diversity and the unseen soil fungal diversity remains unclear.We established 6 sites from the west to the east of the temperate steppe that vary in plant diversity(plant species richness:7-32)to explore the relationship between soil fungal diversity and aboveground plant diversity.Soil fungal community was characterized by applying 18S rRNA gene sequencing using MiSeq PE300 and aligned with Silva 132 database.As a result,soil fungal community was predominately composed of species within the Ascomycota(84.36%),Basidiomycota(7.22%)and Mucoromycota(6.44%).Plant species richness occupied the largest explanatory power in structuring soil fungal community(19.05%–19.78%).The alpha(α)diversity of the whole soil fungi and Ascomycota showed a hump-backed pattern with increasing plant species richness,and the beta(β)diversity of the whole soil fungi and Ascomycota increased with increasing plantβdiversity.Those results indicated that soil fungi and external resources were well balanced at the 20-species level of plant and the sites were more distinct in the composition of their plant communities also harbored more distinct soil fungal communities.Thus,plant diversity could predict both soil fungalαandβdiversity in the temperate steppe of northeastern China.

Contrasting soil fungal communities in Mediterranean pine forests subjected to different wildfire frequencies

Mediterranean forest ecosystems are characterized by various vascular plant groups with their associated mycor-rhizae and free living soil fungi with various ecological functions.Fire plays a major role in Mediterranean ecosystem dynamics and impacts both above-and below-ground community structure and functioning.However,studies on the effects induced by altered disturbance regimes(associated with recent land use and climate extremes)on fire ecology and especially on its below-ground impacts are few.The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of different wildfire regimes on soil fungal community structure using two different molecular methods.We investigated the long-term effects of wildfire on soil fungal communities associated with Pinus pinaster forests in central Portugal,by comparing the results of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis(DGGE)-based profiling with those obtained with 454 pyrosequencing.Four forest stands with differing fire history and fire return interval,and vegetation cover(mature forest,early successional stage of pine regeneration,and forest converted to scrubland)were sampled 6 years after the last fire event.The pyrosequencing-based approach indicated ca.eight-fold higher numbers of taxa than DGGE.However,fungal community fingerprinting data obtained for the different study stands with DGGE were congruent with those obtained with pyrosequencing.Both short(7.6 years)and long(24 years)fire return intervals(indicated by the presence of ericaceous shrubs in the understorey)induced a decrease in the abun-dance ratio between basidiomycetes and ascomycetes and appeared to reduce the frequency of ectomycorrhizal fungal species and saprophytes.Wildfire significantly reduced the frequency of late stage successional taxa(e.g.Atheliaceae and Cantharellales)and known or putative saprophytes belonging to the Clavulinaceae and the Archaeorhizomycetaceae.Conversely,early successional fungal species belonging to the Thelephoraceae were favoured by both fire return inter-vals,while the abundance of Cortinarius and Hebeloma,which include several Cistus-specific species,increased with short wildfire return intervals.This last finding highlights the relationship between postfire vegetation composition and cover(vegetation successional stage),and fungal symbionts.We hypothesise that these changes could,in the long term,exhaust the resilience of Mediterranean pine forest vegetation and associated soil fungal communities by preventing pine regeneration.

Effects of Acetochlor and Methamidophos on Fungal Communities in Black Soils

Using plate counting and ergosterol assay, single and joint effects of acetochlor and methamidophos on the dynamicsof soil fungal population and total fungal biomass in the black soil zone of Northeast China were investigated. The resultsdemonstrated that acetochlor at high concentration levels (150 and 250 mg kg-1) had an acute and mostly chronic toxicityon both the soil fungal population and total fungal biomass, but at a low concentration (50 mg kg-1) generally had astimulating effect that was stronger with total fungal biomass than with the soil fungal population. Methamidophos ata high concentration level (250 mg kg-1) alone and almost all of its combinations with various dosages of acetochlorincreased the soil fungal population, whereas at most sampling dates with 250 mg methamidophos kg-1 soil, total fungalbiomass increased, but in combination with acetochlor it was decreased in the early period of incubation and then increased28 days after incubation. Thus, through measuring the number of colony forming unit of the soil fungal population alongwith the total fungal biomass, a better understanding on effects of agrochemicals on soil fungi could be made.

Soil Cellulase Activity and Fungal Community Responses to Wetland Degradation in the Zoige Plateau, China

Four soil types(peat, marsh, meadow, and sandy) in the Zoige Plateau of China are associated with the severity of wetland degradation. The effects of wetland degradation on the structure and abundance of fungal communities and cellulase activity were assessed in these 4 soil types at 3 depths using DGGE(Denatured Gradient Gel Electrophoresis), q PCR(Quantitative Real-time PCR),and 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid assays. Cellulase activity and abundance of the fungal community declined in parallel to the level of wetland degradation(from least to most disturbed). DGGE analysis indicated a major shift in composition of fungal communities among the4 soil types consistent with the level of degradation.Water content(WC), organic carbon(OC), total nitrogen(TN), total phosphorus(TP), available nitrogen(AN), and available phosphorus(AP) were strongly correlated with cellulase activity and the structure and abundance of the fungal community.The results indicate that soil physicochemical properties(WC, OC, TN, TP, AN, and AP), cellulase activity, and diversity and abundance of fungal communities are sensitive indicators of the relative level of wetland degradation. WC was the major factorinvolved in Zoige wetland degradation and lower WC levels contributed to declines in the abundance and diversity of the fungal community and reduction in cellulase activity.

Changes in fungal community and diversity in strawberry rhizosphere soil after 12 years in the greenhouse

Soil fungi play a very important role in the soil ecological environment. In agricultural production, long-term monoculture and continuous cropping lead to changes in fungal community diversity. However, the effects of long-term monoculture and continuous cropping on strawberry plant health and fungal community diversity have not been elucidated. In this study, using high-throughput sequencing(HTS), we compared the fungal community and diversity of strawberry rhizosphere soil after various durations of continuous cropping(0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 years). The results showed that soil fungal diversity increased with consecutive cropping years. Specifically, the soil-borne disease pathogens Fusarium and Guehomyces were significantly increased after strawberry continuous cropping, and the abundance of nematicidal(Arthrobotrys) fungi decreased from the fourth year of continuous cropping. The results of correlation analysis suggest that these three genera might be key fungi that contribute to the changes in soil properties that occur during continuous cropping. In addition, physicochemical property analysis showed that the soil nutrient content began to decline after the fourth year of continuous cropping. Spearman's correlation analysis showed that soil pH, available potassium(AK) and ammonium nitrogen(NH_4^+-N) were the most important edaphic factors leading to contrasting beneficial and pathogenic associations across consecutive strawberry cropping systems.

Effects of Consecutively Monocultured Rehmannia glutinosa L.on Diversity of Fungal Community in Rhizospheric Soil

Continuous monoculture problems, or replanting diseases, are one of the key factors affecting productivity and quality of Chinese medicinal plants. The underlying mechanism is still being explored. Most of the studies on continuous monoculture ofRehmannia glutinosa L. are focused on plant nutritional physiology, root exudate, and its autotoxieity. However, the changes in the diversity of microflora in the rhizosphere mediated by the continuous monoculture pattern have been remained unknown. In this study, terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism （T-RFLP） technique was used for fingerprinting fungal diversity in the rhizosphere soil sampled from the fields ofR. glutinosa monocultured for 1 and 2 yr. The results showed that the structure of fungal community in consecutively moncultured rhizosphere soil was different from that in control soil （no cropping soil）, and varied with the consecutive monoeulture years （1 and 2 yr）. The comprehensive evaluation index （D） of fungal community estimated by principal component analysis of fragment number, peak area, Shannon-Weiner index, and Margalef index was higher in 1 yr monoculture soil than that in 2 yr monoculture soil, suggesting that consecutive monoculture of R. glutinosa could be a causative agent to decrease the diversity of fungal community in the rhizosphere soil.

Microfungal communities in soil polluted with fluoride

There have been identified three zones according to the degree of soil pollution with fluoride in the impact area of air emissions of the Kandalaksha Aluminium Smelter (Russia): zone of maximum pollution up to 2.5 km from the emission source with the content of fluoride from 5000 to 1200 mg/kg, zone of strong pollution up to 13 km from the plant with the content of fluoride between 1200-400 mg/kg and zone of moderate pollution up to 20 km from the source with content of fluoride between 400-200 mg/kg. Emissions of the aluminium plant have reduced the number and the diversity of fungi and have caused an increase in fungal communities that are potentially pathogenic fungi. The biomass of fungi has decreased in the organic horizon of the maximum polluted soil from 5.4 to 3.6 mg/g. As a whole, emissions from the aluminium plant in the Murmansk region are less toxic for the environment, than emissions of copper-nickel enterprises.

再植障碍问题限制了当归产业健康发展。为了建立高效种植方式,在甘肃渭源县设置5种种植方式[A:豌豆-小麦-当归;B:豌豆-蒙古黄芪-当归;C:豌豆-马铃薯-当归;D:豌豆-当归-当归(对照);E:豌豆-休耕-当归],采挖期通过Illumina Hisqe 2500高通量测序平台测定了不同种植模式下当归根际土壤真菌ITS1变异区的基因序列,分析不同种植方式对当归根际土壤真菌群落和功能差异性的影响。结果表明:(1)5种种植方式下当归根际真菌多样性差异不大,较对照D处理,A、B、C和E处理的Chao1指数、Ace指数和Shannon指数较低,Simpson指数较高。(2)5种种植方式下当归根际土壤真菌群落隶属于11门167属,其中,子囊菌门(Ascomycota)、被孢菌门(Mortierellomycota)、担子菌亚门(Basidiomycota)和壶菌门(Chytridiomycota)为优势门;被孢霉属(Mortierella)、四枝孢属(Tetracladium)为优势属。(3)冗余度分析发现:在门水平影响土壤真菌群落结构组成的主要因子为速效钾、电导率、pH值,在属水平影响土壤真菌群落结构组成的主要因子为有机质、pH值、二氧化碳呼吸速率。(4)FUNGuild预测表明:植物病原体和木质腐生真菌功能群的相对丰度较高。综上所述,不同作物轮作较当归连作,降低了当归根际土壤真菌群落的相对丰度和多样性,有利于根际土壤真菌群落向有益的方向发展。

Effects of Tillage Depth on Nutrients and Microbial Communities in Tobacco-Planting Soil

The implementation of appropriate tillage practices is of great significance for agricultural production. However, the effects of different tillage depths on soil nutrients content and microbial communities in tobacco-planting soils are still lacking systematic research. In this study, three different tillage depths of 15 cm (T1), 20 cm (T2), and 30 cm (T3) were set up for field experiments in Liupanshui, Guizhou Province, to explore the effects of tillage depth on tobacco-planting soil nutrients and bacterial and fungal communities based on 16S rRNA and ITS sequencing and figure out the key factors affecting soil microbial communities. The results showed that T2 and T3 increased the contents of organic matter, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, available phosphorus, and available potassium in tobacco-planting soil, and increased the diversity of bacterial communities compared with T1. There was no significant difference in the structure of bacterial and fungal communities in different tillage depth treatments, but some dominant genera were significantly enriched in T2 and T3. Desulfobacter, Setophoma, Humicola, and Acremonium were significantly enriched in T2. Chthonomonas and Fusarium were significantly enriched in T3. These genera favor the decomposition of organic matter and the cycling of nutrients, and control soil pests and diseases. Redundancy analysis indicated that TP and AK were the key factors influencing the dominant genera of bacteria and fungi. This study provides a scientific basis for the selection of soil tillage depth for tobacco production in this region.

复合木霉制剂防治黄连根腐病及其机理研究

为评价复合木霉制剂对黄连根腐病的防治效果,并揭示其防病机理,为黄连根腐病专用微生物农药的研发奠定基础,本试验将深绿木霉Trichoderma atroviride、长枝木霉T.longibrachiatum、钩状木霉T.hamatum、拟康宁木霉T.koningiopsis等4种木霉配制的复合制剂和尖镰孢Fusarium oxysporum以不同的方式分别施用于黄连,统计根腐病发生情况,检测黄连根部防御酶活性,用高通量测序分析根际土壤真菌群落结构。结果表明,复合木霉制剂对尖镰孢导致的根腐病具有明显预防效果;复合木霉制剂和尖镰孢分别接种黄连可提高SOD、POD、CAT、PAL、PPO等防御性酶活性,产生诱导抗性;而它们先后接种黄连可产生强化效应,从另一个途径提高植株抗病性。复合木霉制剂和尖镰孢都会降低真菌的数量、多样性,和某些真菌的相对丰度,而复合木霉制剂的抑菌作用更强烈,尤其能明显抑制尖镰孢、Ilyonectria sp.等病原真菌的生长,且能改善土壤真菌群落结构。木霉和尖镰孢都能在土壤中较长期定殖。可见,复合木霉制剂可以预防尖镰孢导致的黄连根腐病,防病机理包括诱导黄连植株产生抗性,接种后再遭受病原菌侵染产生的强化效应,优化土壤真菌群落结构,抑制土壤中病原菌等,且有效期较长。因此复合木霉制剂具有开发为微生物农药防治黄连根腐病的潜力。

猕猴桃根腐病根际土壤酶活性及真菌群落组成研究

分析猕猴桃根腐病感病植株和未感病植株根际土壤真菌群落差异,可为研究猕猴桃根腐病发生机制及其调控技术提供依据。在浙江省天台县街头镇的“红阳”猕猴桃种植基地,以树龄9年的猕猴桃根腐病感病植株和未感病植株根际土壤真菌为研究对象,对菌群ITS序列进行高通量测序注释后,对比分析了真菌群落结构与多样性指数的差异,并测定分析了根际土壤脲酶、蔗糖酶和酸性磷酸酶的活性。结果表明,猕猴桃根腐病的发生极显著地降低了根际土壤脲酶、蔗糖酶和磷酸酶的活性(p<0.01)。感病植株根际土壤真菌群落丰富度指数(Chao1)显著低于未感病植株根际土壤(p<0.05)。在门分类水平上,感病植株根际土壤真菌中相对丰度降低的有担子菌门、未分类真菌和接合菌门,其差异均为极显著(p<0.01);相对丰度升高的为子囊菌门,其差异达极显著水平(p<0.01)。在属分类水平上,感病植株根际土壤真菌相对丰度增加的有赤霉菌属、丛赤壳属、镰刀菌属、假裸囊菌属和肉座菌属,其差异均达极显著水平(p<0.01);相对丰度降低的有未分类伞菌纲、枝鼻菌属、粗糙孔菌属、线虫草属、支顶孢属、粪盘菌属、木霉属和被孢霉属,其差异均达极显著水平(p<0.01)。猕猴桃感染根腐病后,根际土壤真菌在门和属水平上的菌群变化打破了原有的微生物拮抗平衡关系。

微生物菌剂对连作芹菜根际土壤真菌群落多样性与结构的影响

以宁南旱区连作4年芹菜根际土壤为研究对象,采用田间定位试验结合高通量测序技术,以常规施肥(CK)为对照,研究常规施肥+枯草·哈茨复合菌剂(MF),常规施肥+枯草芽孢杆菌(BS),常规施肥+哈茨木霉菌(TH)3个处理对芹菜连作根际土壤真菌多样性及群落组成的影响。结果表明:施用枯草·哈茨复合菌显著提高了土壤有效磷、速效钾含量,增幅分别为34.29%和9.98%。施用微生物菌剂增加了土壤脲酶、蔗糖酶活性,平均增幅分别为43.16%和12.98%,并显著改变了土壤真菌的β-多样性。被孢霉属(Mortierella)、织球壳属(Plectosphaerella)、赤霉菌属(Gibberella)、链格孢属(Alternaria)、镰刀菌属(Fusarium)是各处理优势菌属,施用枯草·哈茨复合菌显著降低了赤霉菌属、链格孢属、镰刀霉属等真菌性病原菌的相对丰度,降幅分别为59.88%、51.63%、36.13%。冗余分析表明土壤蔗糖酶、脲酶、碱性磷酸酶活性、pH值和全磷是影响真菌群落结构组成的主要驱动因子。综合而言,枯草·哈茨复合菌剂的施用不仅降低了连作芹菜根际土壤镰刀菌属、链格孢属、赤霉菌属等病原菌的富集,还通过改变有效磷、速效钾等土壤理化性质,进一步重塑土壤真菌群落结构。

3种混交林造林初期土壤真菌群落结构特征

土壤微生物是参与陆地生态系统生物地球化学循环过程的重要成员。造林可以显著影响土壤微生物群落结构与功能,但造林初期驱动的土壤理化因子变化对土壤微生物结构与功能的影响尚不清楚。通过分析由珍稀乡土树种组成的三种新造混交林(BB:银杏Ginkgo biloba⁃桢楠Phoebe zhennan;CB:香椿Toona sinensis⁃红豆杉Taxus wallichiana⁃桢楠Phoebe zhennan;MB:鹅掌楸Liriodendron chinense⁃乐昌含笑Michelia chapensis⁃香椿Toona sinensis⁃玉兰Yulania denudata)表层(0—20 cm)土壤真菌群落组成、功能类群及其土壤理化因子,并以草灌化未造林地作对照(CK),研究土壤真菌群落结构和功能对不同林型造林初期的响应。结果表明:(1)不同林型土壤真菌群落丰富度、多样性指数高于CK,表现为MB>BB>CB>CK,主要受到土壤孔隙度、水解性氮的影响。(2)土壤真菌门水平优势类群在不同处理间无显著差异,其中子囊菌门占绝对优势,MB中的被孢霉门相对丰度显著高于CK(P<0.05)。与CK相比,球囊菌门与Leptodiscella相对丰度在各林型中均降低。(3)通过非度量多维尺度(NMDS)与置换多元方差(Adonis)分析表明,造林初期,造林土壤真菌群落结构与CK存在显著差异(P<0.01)。冗余分析(RDA)分析表明全钾、水解性氮、土壤容重及土壤碳氮比是影响真菌群落指示种的主要土壤理化因子;被孢霉门与水解性氮、碳氮比、全氮、非毛管孔隙度、含水率均呈正相关,与全钾呈负相关。(4)真菌群落主要以腐生营养型为主,病理营养型次之;造林后腐生营养型真菌相对丰度降低,而土壤腐生菌的相对丰度在BB与MB处理中反而显著增加(P<0.05);MB处理中动物病原菌的相对丰度显著增加(P<0.05);真菌优势功能类群主要受到土壤pH、土壤孔隙度、土壤碳氮比(C/N)、土壤有机质、全氮、全钾的影响。造林初期土壤真菌群落结构与功能类群发生了显著改变,阔阔混交林较针阔混交林变化更加明显,其中多种阔叶树混交林病原菌相对更高。

高寒草甸退化程度对优势物种根际土壤真菌群落和生态网络的影响

为明确高寒草甸退化过程中优势物种改变对根际土壤真菌群落多样性及其稳定性的影响,以青藏高原东缘4个不同退化程度(未退化、轻度退化、中度退化和重度退化)高寒草甸为研究对象,采用ITS rRNA基因测序技术,结合FUNGuild预测和分子生态网络模型方法,分析了高寒草甸退化程度对根际真菌群落结构、功能群和分子生态网络的影响。结果表明:草地退化程度对根际土壤真菌Alpha多样性无显著影响,但显著改变根际土壤真菌的Beta多样性;退化程度仅对根际真菌优势种群的相对丰度产生影响,对真菌优势种群没有影响,4个不同退化程度高寒草甸根际土壤中真菌优势种群均为担子菌门、被孢霉门和子囊菌门;通过线性判别分析发现了29个生物标志物,其中大部分属于担子菌门和子囊菌门;草地退化过程中根际真菌群落主要由共生营养型向腐生营养型转变;网络分析发现,退化高寒草甸根际真菌群落各可操作分类单元(OTU)主要以负相关关系为主,并且退化程度越高负相关程度越强烈。同时结合网络拓扑参数,草地退化程度的加剧将会导致根际真菌结构呈更为松散和不稳定的态势。综上所述,高寒草甸退化程度对优势物种根际真菌群落组成、结构和功能类型产生了显著影响,并降低了真菌群落的稳定性和复杂性。研究结果为深入理解高寒草甸根际微生态的适应性机制提供了科学理论依据。

不同种植区白木香结香前后根际土壤真菌群落结构与理化因子相关性分析

通过分析不同种植地白木香结香与未结香的根际真菌种群,了解白木香结香前后根际微生物变化规律,为白木香制定合理栽培措施提供参考依据。采用高通量测序技术和生物信息学手段对海南省3个样地(海口文山、临高东光、乐东抱伦)白木香结香前后根际土壤和真菌的多样性及群落结构进行分析,并结合冗余分析阐明白木香结香前后土壤理化性质与真菌群落的相关性。结果表明:3个产地共获得3 697 288条ITS序列,隶属于3个种植区,共获得1界2门12纲25目42科55属62种。样地内结香前后真菌群落和多样性差异性不大,但优势种群丰度存在差异;样地间存在显著差异。白木香结香前后根际土壤真菌丰富度和多样性上从高到低依次呈现为:LDWJX>LDJX>LGJX>LGWJX>WSWJX>WSJX。白木香根际土壤样品真菌物种组成丰富,不同地区白木香根际未结香和结香后土壤真菌群落组成、分类单元的相对丰度及优势分类单元皆存在不同程度差异。在群落结构上,3个产地的优势菌群均存在差异;在门水平上,3个种植区共有的优势菌门为子囊菌门(Ascomycota)、担子菌门(Basidiomycota);在纲水平上,文山优势纲为座囊菌纲(Dothideomycetes),临高优势纲为粪壳菌纲(Sordariomycete),乐东优势纲为子囊菌纲(Ascomycetes);在属水平上,文山优势属为子囊菌属(p__Ascomycota),临高优势属为漆斑菌属(Myrothecium),乐东优势属为座囊菌属(c__Dothideomycetes)。通过对3个种植区白木香根际土壤理化性质与白木香根际真菌的主要菌属进行相关性分析发现,土壤表面pH、有机质、碱解氮、全氮、全磷、有效磷对白木香根际土壤中主要真菌群落有显著影响,表明通过调节土壤养分水平来改变白木香土壤真菌群落组成和遗传多样性。该研究结果对真菌水平上改良土壤和白木香土壤质量评价具有指导意义,也为今后海南省白木香产区的施肥策略提供参考依据。
