Ecological shifts in soil microbiota and root rot disease progress during ginseng monoculture.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The phenomenon in which the damage of plant diseases is suppressed by continuous cropping is defined as "suppressiveness" and the development of suppressive soils and key beneficial microorganisms have been identified through various previous studies. However, no studies have been conducted on microbial communities related to disease occurrence before the initial occurrence of diseases in crop monoculture.

Methods

We aimed to investigate the ecological modifications of pathogen population density in soil, disease occurrence rate, and microbiota community shifting during ginseng monoculture to better understand the tripartite social relationships in the monoculture system. To achieve the study's objectives, a long-term monoculture of ginseng was established. The
