Differentially enriched fungal communities in root rot resistant and susceptible varieties of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) under continuous monoculture cropping.

ABSTRACT: Root rot is a major disease of tobacco that causes crop losses of up to 15-20% of global tobacco production. The present study aimed to compare the fungal communities, and physicochemical properties of rhizosphere soil of root rot resistant (Yunyan 87; Y) and susceptible (Honghua Dajinyuan; H) tobacco varieties. Four treatments of each variety under continuous monocropping cultures included: control groups (HT0 and YT0); 2 years of continuous cropping (HT2 and YT2); 4 years of continuous cropping (HT4 and YT4); and 8 years of continuous cropping (YT8 and HT8). The soil physicochemical properties including available nitrogen (AN), available phosphorus (AP), available potassium (AK), and organic matter (OM) were increased (p < 0.05) from HT0 to HT8, whereas the resistant variet
