Changes of Key Soil Factors, Biochemistry and Bacterial Species Composition during Seasons in the Rhizosphere and Roots of Codonopsis pilosula (tangshen)
Abstract:Codonopsis pilosula is a medicinal and edible herb with a rich nutritional value. In Gansu Province, China, its production quality and yield differ during the four seasons. Here, we investigated the differences in the microfloral composition and metabolic functions in the rhizospheric soil and roots of C. pilosula during the four seasons, and we also analyzed their dynamic and synergistic effects on C. pilosula growth and carbohydrate content change. The C. pilosula samples were analyzed for plant physiology, … Show more
