ABSTRACT
Passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) is widely grown in tropical and subtropical regions, showing high economic and ornamental value. Microorganisms are indicators for the stability and health of the soil ecosystem, which can affect the yield and quality of passion fruit under continuous cropping. High-throughput sequencing and interactive analysis were used to analyse the variation of microbial communities in the noncultivated soil (NCS), cultivated soil (CS), and the rhizosphere soil of purple passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. edulis ×Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa, RP) and yellow passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa, RY). An average of 98,001 high-quality fungal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences, mainly from Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, Mortierellomycota, Mucoromycota and Glomeromycota, as well as an average of 71,299 high-quality bacterial 16S rRNA sequences, mainly from Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Acidobacteria, Firmicutes and Chloroflexi, were obtained per sample. It was found that the continuous cropping of passion fruit increased the richness but reduced the diversity of soil fungi, while it dramatically increased the richness and diversity of soil bacteria. In addition, during the continuous cropping, grafting different scions in the same rootstock contributed to the aggregation of differential rhizosphere microbial communities. Among fungal genera, Trichoderma showed higher abundance in RY than in RP and CS, while the opposite was observed in the pathogen Fusarium. Moreover, the co-occurrence network and potential function analyses also showed that the appearance of Trichoderma was related to Fusarium and its contribution to plant metabolism was significantly greater in RY than in RP and CS. In conclusion, the rhizosphere of yellow passion fruit may be beneficial for the enrichment of disease-resistant microbes, such as Trichoderma, which may be an important factor inducing stronger resistance to stem rot. It will help to form a potential strategy for overcoming the pathogen-mediated obstacles in passion fruit and improve its yield and quality.
