ABSTRACT: Cadmium (Cd) poses a serious threat to plant growth, so the selection and breeding of Cd-tolerant pepper cultivars is an effective method to reduce Cd hazards. This study identified C. annuum G03 as a Cd-tolerant cultivar, evidenced by its superior leaf physiological activity under Cd stress compared to the sensitive C. annuum C07. 16S rDNA sequencing revealed a more complex bacterial symbiotic network in the bulk soil, rhizosphere, and root endophyte of C. annuum G03, enhancing its buffering capacity against Cd stress. Furthermore, correlation analysis between rhizosphere bacteria and metabolites indicated that Armatimonadota and Bdellovibrionota were the key functional bacteria of C. annuum G03. They can influence the levels of key metabolites such as nerolidol, glutathionylspermine, alpha-linolenic acid, thereby reducing antioxidant damage and Cd ion uptake in plant roots. These findings provide valuable insights into the microbial mechanisms underpinning pepper tolerance to Cd stress.
