| Abstract | Plant secondary metabolites (SMs) play a crucial role in plant defense against pathogens and adaptation to environmental stresses, some of which are produced from medicinal plants and are the material basis of clinical efficacy and vital indicators for quality evaluation of corresponding medicinal materials. The influence of plant microbiota on plant nutrient uptake, production and stress tolerance has been revealed, but the associations between plant microbiota and the accumulation of SMs in medicinal plants remain largely unknown. Plant SMs can vary among individuals, which could be partly ascribed to the shift in microbial community associated with the plant host. In the present study, we sampled fine roots and rhizosphere soils of Sophora flavescens grown in four well-separated cities/counties in China and determined the taxonomic composition of rhizosphere bacterial communities using Illumina 16S amplicon sequencing. In addition, the association of the rhizosphere bacterial microbiota with the accumulation of alkaloids in the roots of S. flavescens was analyzed. The results showed that S. flavescens hosted distinct bacterial communities in the rhizosphere across geographic locations and plant ages, also indicating that geographic location was a larger source of variation than plant age. Moreover, redundancy analysis revealed that spatial, climatic (mean annual temperature and precipitation) and edaphic factors (pH and available N and P) were key drivers shaping the rhizosphere bacterial communities. Furthermore, the results of the Mantel test demonstrated that the rhizosphere bacterial microbiota was remarkably correlated with the contents of oxymatrine, sophoridine and matrine + oxymatrine in roots. Specific taxa belonging to Actinobacteria and Chloroflexi were identified as potential beneficial bacteria associated with the total accumulation of matrine and oxymatrine by a random forest machine learning algorithm. Finally, structural equation modeling indicated that the Actinobacteria phylum had a direct effect on the total accumulation of matrine and oxymatrine. The present study addresses the association between the rhizosphere bacterial communities and the accumulation of alkaloids in the medicinal plant S. flavescens. Our findings may provide a basis for the quality improvement and sustainable utilization of this medicinal plant thorough rhizosphere microbiota manipulation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
