First insights into diversity and potential metabolic pathways of bacterial and fungal communities in the rhizosphere of Argemonemexicana L. (Papaveraceae) from the water-level-fluctuation zone of Wudongde Reservoir of the upper Yangtze river, China.

ABSTRACT: The water-level fluctuation zone (WLFZ) of Wudongde reservoir of the upper Yangtze river is a completely new aquatic-terrestrial transitional zone, and its plant degenerate issue is attracting global concerns. Uncovering the unknown rhizosphere microbiome of dominant plants of this zone is helpful in understanding the plant-microbe interactions and their growth under the largely varying environment. Here, a first exploration of the rhizosphere bacterial and fungal communities of wilted (JB) and unwilted (JA) Argemonemexicana L. individuals from the WLFZ of Wudongde reservoir was carried out using high-throughput sequencing and MetaCyc metabolic pathway analyses. The results showed that rhizosphere of wilted A.mexicana L individuals exhibited a higher microbial richness and di
