Abstract Background: Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is one of the most important fruit crops grown in China. However, the yield and quality of melon have significantly declined under continuous cropping. Phenolic acids are believed to be associated with the continuous monocropping obstacle (CMO) and can influence plant microbe interactions. Coumaric acid (CA) is one of the major phenolic acids found in melon root exudates. The objectives of this study were to estimate the elimination of CA by the soil bacterium K3 as well as its effects on mitigating melon CMO. CA degradation was investigated by monitoring the CA retained in the growth medium using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The effects of CA and K3 on rhizosphere soil microbial communities were investigated by the spread plate method and Illumina MiSeq sequencing. Furthermore, the effects of CA and K3 on melon seedling growth were measured under potted conditions. The changes in soil enzymes and fruit quality under K3 amendment were examined in a greenhouse experiment. Result:The results suggest that the addition of CA had the same result as the CMO, such as deterioration of the microbial community and slower growth of melon plants. HPLC and microbial analysis showed that K3 had a pronounced ability to decompose CA and could improve the soil microbial community environment. Soil inoculation with K3 agent could significantly improve the fruit quality of melon.Conclusion: Our results show that the effects of K3 in the soil are reflected by changes in populations and diversity of soil microbes and suggest that deterioration of microbial communities in soil might be associated with the growth constraint of melon in continuous monoculture systems.
