カメリア・オレイフェラの異なる品種が根圏関連細菌群集構造と共起ネットワークに及ぼす影響

This study investigates the bacterial community structure and diversity across different root compartments (non-rhizosphere soil, rhizosphere soil, rhizosphere, and endosphere) of Camellia oleifera and their associations with three cultivars ('Huashuo', 'Huajin', 'Huaxin'). High-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics analyses were performed to characterize the bacterial communities. A total of 22 phyla, 59 classes, 155 orders, 268 families, 523 genera, 929 species, and 2045 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified. Alpha diversity indices (Shannon, Simpson, Chao1) showed no statistically significant differences among the three cultivars, but varied significantly across root compartments. The rhizosphere exhibited the highest bacterial diversity and richness, which was significantly higher than that in the endosphere. At the phylum level, Proteobacteria, Chloroflexi, Actinobacteriota, Acidobacteriota, Firmicutes, and Bacteroidetes dominated the communities. Significant differences were observed in the relative abundance of dominant genera (e.g., Proteus, actinomycetes) among varieties and root compartments. PCoA analysis revealed that 'Huaxin' had a distinct bacterial community structure compared to 'Huashuo' and 'Huajin', while the endosphere was separated from other compartments. Interaction network analysis indicated that most bacterial interactions were positive, with Colidextribacter, Uliginosibacterium, and Aliidongia showing the highest centrality, suggesting their key roles in maintaining community stability. This study provides novel insights into the distribution patterns and driving factors of root-associated bacteria in C. oleifera, laying a theoretical foundation for future research on disease control and quality improvement of this crop.
