Harnessing the power of microbes:Enhancing soybean growth in an acidic soil through AMF inoculation rather than P-fertilization

The low phosphorus(P)availability of acidic soils severely limits leguminous plant growth and productivity.Improving the soil P nutritional status can be achieved by increasing the P-content through P-fertilization or stimulating the mineralization of organic P via arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi(AMF)application;however,their corresponding impacts on plant and soil microbiome still remain to be explored.Here,we examined the effects of AMF-inoculation and P-fertilization on the growth of soybean with different P-efficiencies,as well as the composition of rhizo-microbiome in an acidic soil.The growth of recipient soybean NY-1001,which has a lower P-efficiency,was not significantly enhanced by AMF-inoculation or P-fertilization.However,the plant biomass of higher P-efficiency transgenic soybean PT6 was significantly increased by 46.74%-65.22%through AMF-inoculation.Although there was no discernible difference in plant biomass between PT6 and NY-1001 in the absence of AMF-inoculation and P-fertilization,PT6 had approximately 1.9-2.5 times the plant biomass of NY-1001 after AMF-inoculation.Therefore,the growth advantage of higher P-efficiency soybean was achieved through the assistance of AMF rather than P-fertilization in available P-deficient acidic soil.Most nitrogen(N)-fixing bacteria and some functional genes related to N-fixation were abundant in endospheric layer,as were the P-solubilizing Pseudomonas plecoglossicida,and annotated P-metabolism genes.These N-fixing and P-solubilizing bacteria were positive correlated with each other.Lastly,the two most abundant phytopathogenic fungi species accumulated in endospheric layer,they exhibited positive correlations with N-fixing bacteria,but displayed negative interactions with the majority of the other dominant non-pathogenic genera with potential antagonistic activity.
