The response of Panax ginseng root microbial communities and metabolites to nitrogen addition.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Nitrogen availability plays a pivotal role in shaping the composition of root-associated microbial consortia in plants. Nevertheless, elucidating the mechanisms by which nitrogen availability regulates microbial populations and their metabolic activities across different root-associated ecological niches requires further investigation. This research employed an integrative approach combining microbiological approaches with non-targeted metabolomic analyses to examine nitrogen-mediated variations in microbial communities and metabolic processes within ginseng root systems. High-throughput sequencing alongside UPLC-MS/MS analytical platforms was utilized to conduct this multidimensional investigation.

Results

Our findings reveal that ginseng treated with N1 exhibite
