Project description:<p>Carbonate-type saline-alkaline stress severely constrains maize production; however, the synergistic response mechanisms between rhizosphere microorganisms and metabolites remain unclear. This study focused on maize fields in the carbonate chernozem region of the Songnen Plain in Northeast China. Through field experiments and the integration of soil chemical factor analysis, microbial high-throughput sequencing (16S rRNA and ITS), and non-targeted metabolomics (LC-MS), we systematically investigated the response mechanisms of the rhizosphere micro-ecosystem under saline-alkaline stress. The results indicated that saline-alkaline stress significantly increased soil pH and electrical conductivity (EC), and led to decreases in soil organic matter (SOM), total nitrogen (TN), and total phosphorus (TP) contents. However, the rhizosphere zone exhibited a certain buffering capacity, maintaining a higher cation exchange capacity (CEC). Microbial community analysis revealed that bacterial alpha diversity increased under stress. In contrast, fungal diversity significantly decreased, and the community structure shifted towards a pathogen-dominated community, primarily within Ascomycota, especially the genus Fusarium. Co-occurrence network analysis further revealed that saline-alkaline conditions enhanced the complexity and connectivity of bacterial networks but led to the contraction and structural simplification of fungal networks. Metabolite analysis showed that saline-alkaline stress induced significant reprogramming of the rhizosphere metabolic profile. Organophosphorus compounds, nucleotides, and their analogs were significantly enriched, while defensive secondary metabolites such as Cajanol specifically accumulated in the saline-alkaline rhizosphere. Pathway analysis indicated the activation of stress resistance and oxidative stress mitigation-related pathways, including Betalain biosynthesis, flavonoid biosynthesis, tryptophan metabolism, and arginine metabolism. Multi-omics integration analysis identified soil EC and total potassium (TK) as key environmental factors driving the differentiation of microbial and metabolite communities. Key differential metabolites showed significant positive correlations with saline-alkaline-enriched microbial taxa (e.g., Sphingomonas), revealing a metabolite-mediated microbial recruitment mechanism. This study, through multi-omics analysis, discovered that the maize rhizosphere, under saline-alkaline stress, undergoes metabolic reprogramming (e.g., enriching defensive metabolites like Cajanol) to directionally recruit beneficial bacteria such as Sphingomonas and maintains higher bacterial network complexity, while also leading to the pathologization of the fungal community. Our study reveals that maize recruits beneficial microbes via rhizosphere metabolic reprogramming, providing a mechanistic basis for microbiome-assisted saline-alkaline soil remediation.</p>
