Facilitating effects of the reductive soil disinfestation process combined with Paenibacillus sp. amendment on soil health and physiological properties of Momordica charantia.

ABSTRACT: Reductive soil disinfestation (RSD) is an anaerobic and facultative anaerobic microbial-mediated soil management process. The extent of improvement of diseased soil properties by RSD relative to comparable healthy soil is, however, not well characterized. Importantly, how to promote the colonization efficiency of these facultative anaerobic functional species to ensure soil and plant health remain unknown. Here, Fusarium wilt-diseased soil of Momordica charantia grown under a plastic-shed field (PS-CK) was used to conduct molasses-RSD (MO-RSD) along with Paenibacillus sp. (a model of facultative anaerobic species) (MO_PA-RSD) treatment, and the soil from a nearby open-air paddy field was considered comparable healthy soil (OA-CK). Both RSD treatments signific
