“…Concerning the effect of the intercropping alfalfa on contaminated soil, our results confirm the beneficial effect of intercropping alfalfa and others legumes for physiological, biochemical and agronomic parameters of grapevine (Monteiro and Lopes, 2007;Contreras et al, 2019). Similarly, we remarked that total chlorophyll and carotenoid content were reduced in the contaminated soil and the recovery was assured by the intercropping with alfalfa especially when inoculated with associated rhizobia.…”

“…It was shown that intercropping of two grapevine cultivars with clover and pea provide environmental benefits such as enhancing microbiological activity, promoting yield and increasing farmer income (Gaser et al, 2017). Recently, Contreras et al (2019) showed that subterranean clover in intercropping with grapevine stimulate the roots exudates and plant-plant interaction and it can improve the industrial grapevine performance.…”

Our research aimed to reveal the capacity of intercropping with Medicago sativa-rhizobia in the amelioration of grapevine growth in agricultural and a Cd/Pb contaminated soils. A local variety of grapevine was cultivated in monocropping and in intercropping with Medicago sativa inoculated or not with its associated rhizobia. Intercropping with alfalfa induced a significant increase in shoot and root biomass of grapevine in the agricultural soil. However, in the contaminated soil, a slight increase in root biomass was observed. Concerning photosynthesis apparatus, we showed that the presence of Cd and Pb in the soil induced a significant decrease in both CO2 assimilation rate and stomatal conductance. Interestingly, intercropping with alfalfa only and with rhizobia alleviate this effect. Similar results are obtained for chlorophyll and carotenoid content. This was associated with a significant decrease in the malondialdehyde level in leaves and roots of grapevine cultivated in intercropping with alfalfa with and without inoculation in the two soils as compared the monoculture treatment. Comparison between treatments revealed also that intercropping with alfalfa induced a decrease in the activities of some enzymes implicated in the defence to the oxidative stress such as catalase and superoxide dismutase. Regarding soluble protein content, it is needed to signal the improvement of this parameter with the intercropping system in the contaminated soil when compared to the monocropping treatment. This work highlights the importance of the use of legumes in intercropping with grapevine as intercrop plant non-competitive for soil nutrient and proving N supply for associated plants.

“…Our exudates were collected just after germination (3 days after planting) and at the very early growth phase of the clover (6 days after planting). Therefore, the level of sugars in this study (around 25% of the total compounds) was higher than has been reported in other studies with clover ( 51 ). It has been determined that the gene category “carbohydrate metabolism and transport” was expanded in the plant-associated organisms ( 60 ) and that the utilization of sugars may represent an adaptive mechanism in the rhizosphere that could be exploited as a selective advantage over other rhizobacteria.…”

“…Plants exude around 11 to 40% of their photosynthetically accumulated carbon through root exudation ( 48 ), the primary metabolites being mainly composed of organic acids, amino acids, and sugars ( 49 – 51 ). The composition of root exudates varies with plant age, physiological conditions, climate, and plant species and in response to the presence of bacterial strains ( 50 , 52 , 53 ).…”

The success of an eco-friendly and cost-effective strategy for soil decontamination is conditioned by the understanding of the ecology of plant-microorganism interactions. Although many studies have been published about the bacterial metabolic capacities in the rhizosphere and about rhizoremediation of contaminants, there are fewer studies dealing with the integration of bacterial metabolic capacities in the rhizosphere during PAH bioremediation, and some aspects still remain controversial.

“…The main reasons for farmers to prefer rotation, inter-and mixed cropping systems is to increase the forage yield and keep soil healthy with a sustainable approach (Ghanbari-Banjar and Lee, 2003;Deak et al, 2007;Lithourgidis and Dordas, 2010;Chen et al, 2019;Vidal et al, 2019). Legumes can also increase, available phosphorus (Bargaz et al, 2012) and the nutritional status of the plant (Contreras et al, 2019). They also allow low input production (Dai et al, 2019) and provide pest control without chemical pesticides (Allen-Perkins and Estrada, 2019).…”

Intercropping, mixed cropping, and rotation are commonly applied and some of the oldest crop production techniques to improve soil structure and nitrogen status. While rotation takes generally two-season with one triticeae and legume, inter-and mixed cropping takes place within the same season. Among many advantages of legume inter-and mixed cropping, the most important one is the sustainable use of soil resources and reduced input cost. Numerous studies evaluated the effect of inter -and mixed cropping on above-ground interactions, very few investigated below-ground interactions in these systems. This study aimed to investigate common vetch (Vicia sativa) x triticale (Xtriticosecale Wittmack) root system interactions at the seedling stage under intercropping conditions. The study was conducted with a semi-hydroponic plexiglass system. Five different ratios were used to test species level intercommunication and competition. The results suggest that, while triticale significantly affected the development of common vetch roots, common vetch did not affect triticale. Triticale with a fibrous root system was more aggressive on root growth compared to common vetch. It was seen that the most vigorous root system development (for both species) was at doses with higher legume ratios. Our results highlight the importance of below-ground interactions for the selection of best ratios to gain maximum outcome from the intercropping systems.
