Soil Chemical and Microbial Properties and its Relationship with the Root Growth of Panax ginseng

Different Age-Induced Changes in Rhizosphere Microbial Composition and Function of Panax ginseng in Transplantation Mode

“…Microbes have been shown to be dominant drivers of biogeochemical cycles including nutrient cycling in soils ( Wang et al, 2019b ). Shifts in the relative abundances of some microbes with differing pH values can influence the nutrient availability in soils ( Rubenecia et al, 2015 ; Tan et al, 2017b ). Thermoleophilia class, a predominant Actinobacteria phylum subgroup that was negatively correlated with OM, is known to be involved in the degradation of OM in soils ( Zhou et al, 2015 ).…”

Effects of plant cultivars on the structure of bacterial and fungal communities associated with ginseng

“…Dong et al (2018) suggested that the bacterial diversity decreased and fungal diversity increased in the rhizosphere soils of cultivated ginseng under continuous cropping [16]. Long-term ginseng cultivation leads to the prevalence of pathogenic microbes in rhizosphere soil, such as Fusarium, thus upsetting the balance of rhizosphere microorganisms, leading to the failure of ginseng continuous cropping [17]. These problems with continuous cropping hinder the development of the ginseng industry [18].…”
