Key Chemical Soil Parameters for the Assembly of Rhizosphere Bacteria Associated with Avocado Cv Hass Grafted on Landrace Rootstocks.

ABSTRACT: Avocado cultivation holds significant economic importance in many countries, ranking Colombia as the fifth largest global producer. Particularly, the Hass cultivar plays a pivotal role in Colombia's avocado industry, especially in the Department of Antioquia, the primary export region. This cultivar is grown under diverse soil and climate conditions and exhibits considerable genetic polymorphism due to the hybridization of varieties of agronomic significance, leading to a diverse array of landrace rootstocks. However, the role of soil conditions and rootstock genotype in structuring rhizosphere bacterial communities is still lacking. In addressing this knowledge gap, we investigated the influence of two soil conditions on the structure of rhizosphere bacterial communities associated with t
