Plant-associated bacteria provide important services to host plants. Environmental factors such as cultivar type and pedoclimatic conditions contribute to shape their diversity. However, whether these environmental factors may influence the plant growth promoting (PGP) potential of the root-associated bacteria is not widely understood. To address this issue, the diversity and PGP potential of the bacterial assemblage associated with the grapevine root system of different cultivars in three Mediterranean environments along a macrotransect identifying an aridity gradient were assessed by culture-dependent and independent approaches. According to 16S rRNA gene PCR-DGGE, the structure of endosphere and rhizosphere bacterial communities was highly diverse (P=0.03) and was associated with a cultivar/latitudinal/climatic effect. Despite being diverse, the bacterial communities associated with Egyptian grapevines shared a higher similarity with the Tunisian grapevines than those cultivated in North Italy. A similar distribution, according to the cultivar/latitude/aridity gradients, was observed for the cultivable bacteria. Many isolates (23%) presentedin vitromultiple stress resistance capabilities and PGP activities, the most frequent being auxin synthesis (82%), insoluble phosphate solubilisation (61%), and ammonia production (70%). The comparable numbers and types of potential PGP traits among the three different environmental settings indicate a strong functional homeostasis of beneficial bacteria associated with grape root.

Soil Environmental Factors

Reductive soil disinfestation (RSD) and soil solarization (SS) were evaluated based on environmental factors, microbiome, and suppression of Fusarium oxysporum in a tomato field soil. Soil environmental factors (moisture content, electric conductivity, pH, and redox potential (RP)) were measured during soil disinfestations. All factors were more strongly influenced by RSD than SS. 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing of RSD- and SS-treated soils was performed. The bacterial communities were taxonomically and functionally distinct depending on treatment methods and periods and significantly correlated with pH and RP. Fifty-four pathways predicted by PICRUSt2 (third level in MetaCyc hierarchy) were significantly different between RSD and SS. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction demonstrated that both treatments equally suppressed F. oxysporum. The growth and yield of tomato cultivated after treatments were similar between RSD and SS. RSD and SS shaped different soil bacterial communities, although the effects on pathogen suppression and tomato plant growth were comparable between treatments. The existence of pathogen-suppressive microbes, other than Clostridia previously reported to have an effect, was suggested. Comparison between RSD and SS provides new aspects of unknown disinfestation patterns and the usefulness of SS as an alternative to RSD.

Rare Bacteria

High-throughput sequencing is commonly used to study soil microbial communities. However, different primers targeting different 16S rRNA hypervariable regions often generate different microbial communities and result in different values of diversity and community structure. This study determined the consequences of using two bacterial primers (338f/806r, targeting the V3-V4 region, and 520f/802r, targeting the V4 region) to assess bacterial communities in the soils of different land uses along a latitudinal gradient. The results showed that the variations in the soil bacterial diversity in different land uses were more evident based on the former pair. The statistical results showed that land use had no significant impact on soil bacterial diversity when primer pair 520f/802r was used. In contrast, when primer pair 338f/806r was used, the cropland and orchard soils had significantly higher operational taxonomic units (OTUs) and Shannon diversity index values than those of the shrubland and grassland soils. Similarly, the soil bacterial diversity generated by primer pair 338f/806r was significantly impacted by mean annual precipitation, soil total phosphorus (TP), soil total nitrogen (TN), and soil available phosphorus (AVP), while the soil bacterial diversity generated by primer pair 520f/802r showed no significant correlations with most of these environmental factors. Multiple regression models indicated that soil pH and soil organic carbon (SOC) shaped the soil bacterial community structure on the Loess Plateau regardless of what primer pair was used. Climatic conditions mainly affected the diversity of rare bacteria. Abundant bacteria are more sensitive than rare bacteria to environmental changes. Very little of the variation in the rare bacterial community was explained by environmental factors or geographic distance, suggesting that the communities of rare bacteria are unpredictable. The distributions of the abundant taxa were mainly determined by variations in environmental factors.
