“…For example, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are soil fungi that form mutualistic symbionts with most plants [2]; their colonization ability in different plant types ranges from 80% to 90% [3]. Among other functions, AMF help plants obtain 50-75% and 30% of their phosphorus [4,5] and nitrogen requirements, respectively [5,6]. Host plants provide 30% of the carbon requirements for the growth of mycorrhizal fungi [7].…”

Siraitia grosvenorii, a medicinal plant with continuous cropping, is cultivated in southern China. Changes in the soil microbial community during continuous cropping can cause soil-borne diseases in S. grosvenorii. This experimental study aimed to determine the differences in the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) community structure and root colonization in the rhizosphere soil of S. grosvenorii with different continuous cropping years and altitudes. We tested three altitude gradients (low, 200–300 m; middle, 500–600 m; and high, 700–800 m) and four continuous cropping years (1, 2, 3, and 5 years). AMF colonization, along with AMF spore density, and the soil physicochemical properties of S. grosvenorii roots at different altitudes and continuous cropping years were determined. Illumina high-throughput sequencing was used to determine the molecular diversity of AMF in the rhizosphere of S. grosvenorii as they exhibited a symbiotic relationship. The AMF species in the rhizosphere soil of S. grosvenorii included 28 species of nine genera, including Glomus, Claroideoglomus, Acaulospora, Paraglomus, Ambispora, and so on. With an increasing altitude, the AMF colonization of S. grosvenorii roots increased significantly (p < 0.01); available phosphorus (AP) content was negatively correlated with AMF colonization (p < 0.01). Glomus and Paraglomus were the common dominant genera in the rhizosphere soil of S. grosvenorii planted for 2–5 years at a low altitude and 1 year at middle and high altitudes. The average relative abundance of Glomus increased with increasing continuous cropping years and altitude in the low-altitude and 1-year S. grosvenorii areas, respectively. Slightly acidic rhizosphere soil contributed to AMF colonization and improved the richness and diversity of the AMF community. Our results showed that altitude, AP, and pH are essential factors for predicting AMF infection and community changes in the S. grosvenorii rhizosphere. Here, Illumina high-throughput sequencing was used to study the species resources and community composition of mycorrhizal fungi in S. grosvenorii in the hilly areas of Guangxi, China. This study provides a theoretical basis for the application and practice of mycorrhizal fungi including the isolation and screening of dominant strains, inoculation of mycorrhizal fungi, and exploration of the effects of mycorrhizal fungi on the growth and active ingredients of medicinal plants.

Formaldehyde is a common gaseous pollutant from buildings and decorative materials. However, in recent years, increasing concerns have been raised regarding its harmful health in indoor air. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the physiological and photosynthetic response mechanisms of Racomitrium japonicum under formaldehyde stress. R. japonicum was exposed to dynamic fumigation with formaldehyde for 7 days, with each day comprising an 8-h exposure period within a sealed container. The effects on plant structure, pigment content, photosynthetic efficiency, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation were assessed. Our findings revealed that formaldehyde stress led to structural damage, reduced pigment content, decreased photosynthetic efficiency, and increased ROS production in R. japonicum. Significantly, distinct stress-response pathways were observed at various formaldehyde concentrations. In response to low and moderate formaldehyde concentrations, R. japonicum activated its antioxidant enzyme system to mitigate ROS accumulation. In contrast, the high-concentration treatment group demonstrated suppressed antioxidant enzyme activity. In response, R. japonicum used non-photochemical quenching and activated cyclic electron flow to mitigate severe cellular damage. This study provides an in-depth understanding of the physiological changes of R. japonicum under formaldehyde stress, elucidating its response mechanisms. The findings provide valuable information for developing effective indoor formaldehyde monitoring and purification methods.
