The rhizosphere and root selections intensify fungi-bacteria interaction in abiotic stress-resistant plants.

ABSTRACT: The microbial communities, inhabiting around and in plant roots, are largely influenced by the compartment effect, and in turn, promote the growth and stress resistance of the plant. However, how soil microbes are selected to the rhizosphere, and further into the roots is still not well understood. Here, we profiled the fungal, bacterial communities and their interactions in the bulk soils, rhizosphere soils and roots of eleven stress-resistant plant species after six months of growth. The results showed that the root selection (from the rhizosphere soils to the roots) was stronger than the rhizosphere selection (from the bulk soils to the rhizosphere soils) in: (1) filtering stricter on the fungal (28.5% to 40.1%) and bacterial (48.9% to 68.1%) amplicon sequence variants (ASVs), (2) deple
