Contributions of carbon source, crop cultivation, and chemical property on microbial community assemblage in soil subjected to reductive disinfestation.

ABSTRACT: In agricultural practice, reductive soil disinfestation (RSD) is an effective method for eliminating soil-borne pathogens that depends heavily on carbon source. However, knowledge regarding the assembly of soil microbial communities in RDS-treated soils amended with different carbon sources after continuous crop cultivation is still not well-characterized. RSD treatments were performed on greenhouse soil with six different carbon sources (ethanol, glucose, alfalfa, wheat bran, rice bran, and sugarcane residue), which have different C:N ratios (Org C/N) and easily oxidized carbon contents (Org EOC). After RSD, two consecutive seasons of pepper pot experiments were conducted. Then, the effects of carbon source property, crop cultivation, and soil chemical property on soil microbial community
