ABSTRACT
Maximizing the potential of plant-microbe systems offers great opportunities to confront sustainability issues in agroecosystems. However, the dialog between root exudates and rhizobacteria remains largely unknown. As a novel nanofertilizer, nanomaterials (NMs) have significant potential to improve agricultural productivity due to their unique properties. Here, soil amendment with 0.1 mg·kg-1 selenium (Se) NMs (30-50 nm) significantly promoted rice seedling growth. Differences in root exudates and rhizobacteria were evident. At an earlier time point (3rd week), Se NMs increased the relative content of malic and citric acid by 15.4- and 8.1-fold, respectively. Meanwhile, the relative abundances of Streptomyces and Sphingomonas were increased by 164.6 % and 38.3 %, respectively. As the exposure time increased, succinic acid (40.5-fold) at the 4th week and salicylic acid (4.7-fold) and indole-3-acetic (7.0-fold) at the 5th week were enhanced, while Pseudomonas and Bacillus increased at the 4th (112.3 % and 50.2 %) and 5th weeks (190.8 % and 53.1 %), respectively. Further analysis indicated that (1) Se NMs directly enhanced the synthesis and secretion of malic and citric acids by upregulating their biosynthesis and transporter genes and then recruited Bacillus and Pseudomonas; (2) Se NMs upregulated the chemotaxis and flagellar genes of Sphingomonas for more interaction with rice plants, thereby promoting rice growth and stimulating root exudate secretion. This crosstalk of root exudates and rhizobacteria enhanced nutrient uptake, resulting in promoted rice growth. Our study offers insights into the crosstalk between root exudates and rhizobacteria by NMs and provides new insights into rhizosphere regulation in nano-enabled agriculture.
