Analysis of rhizosphere bacterial diversity of Angelica dahurica var. formosana based on different experimental sites and varieties (strains)

Abstract

Only with good producing areas and good germplasm can good medicinal materials be produced. In this study, in order to explore the effects of soil environment and germplasm on yield and quality of Angelica dahurica var. formosana from microorganism level, Illumina MiSeq was used to study the rhizosphere bacterial diversity of A. dahurica var. formosana based on different origin and varieties (strains). The results showed that the bacterial community of A. dahurica var. formosana was stable and conserved to a certain extent, and the bacteria of Proteobacteria and Firmicutes might play an important role in improving the yield and quality of A. dahurica var. formosana. Soil variables were the key factors affecting the rhizosphere bacterial community composition of A. dahurica var. formosana. These results are of great significance for further understanding the growth promotion mechanism of beneficial rhizosphere bacteria, reducing fertilizer application, expanding planting area, improving soil environment, and improving yield and quality.
