The soil bacterial diversity and community structures in rhizosphere soil of , and in a common garden experiment were measured using the high-throughput sequencing technique, with the aim of investigating the factors driving the variation in the bacterial community structure. The results indicated that 42 phyla, 55 classes, 123 orders, 244 families, and 558 genera were obtained from the rhizosphere soil. The dominant phyla in all sample sites were Proteobacteria, Cyanobacteria, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, and Acidobacteria (relative abundance>1%). At the genus level, , and were dominant. Two-way analysis of variance showed that species had a significant effect on the Shannon index and Simpson index of rhizosphere soil bacteria of the three species, whereas the Chao1 index, Shannon index, and Simpson index were significantly affected by the interaction of provenances and species. There was a significant difference among the three species in the composition of bacterial communities, and the cluster analysis indicated that the composition of the soil bacterial community significantly differed among provenances in and . Based on the redundancy analysis, mean annual precipitation and altitude were the dominant factors influencing the rhizosphere soil bacterial community structure. Overall, the present results indicated that there were intraspecific and interspecific differences in the diversity and community structures of rhizosphere soil bacteria, and the bacterial community structure was mainly affected by the provenance climate. These results provide a theoretical basis for understanding the adaptation strategies and ecological restoration of the three species.

The seed microbiota, a still underexplored component of plant-microbe interactions, plays a pivotal role in plant development and holds significant promise for advancing sustainable agriculture. By influencing essential processes such as germination, stress tolerance, nutrient acquisition and defence, seed-associated microbes offer unique advantages beyond those of soil- or rhizosphere-associated microbiomes. Notably, they are transmitted both vertically and horizontally; however, fundamental questions remain regarding their origin, ecological dynamics and functional roles across environments.

Microplastics are pervasive soil pollutants, yet their role in driving microbial risk in medicinal plant rhizospheres remains poorly understood. Using polyethylene microplastics (PE-MPs) as a model, this study investigated the dose-dependent effects of PE-MPs (0-1000 mg/kg) on the dynamics of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), biocide/metal resistance genes (BMRGs), virulence factor genes (VFGs), mobile genetic elements (MGEs), and human bacterial pathogens (HBPs) in the rhizosphere of Angelica sinensis. Results showed that PE-MPs exposure increased the abundance of these genes and pathogens while simplifying the host microbial community structure.

A novel bacterial strain, SM-13 was isolated from the rhizospheric soil of Epipremnum aureum (Jade Pothos) sampled in Suwon, Republic of Korea. The isolate was Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, motile, rod-shaped, cream-coloured, oxidase- and catalase-positive. Strain SM-13 grew at the range of 15-37 °C (optimum, 25 °C), at pH 6.

Rice is consumed by ∼50% of the global population, grown primarily in flooded paddy fields, and is susceptible to arsenic accumulation. Inorganic arsenic, particularly in reduced form (As(III)), is considered the most toxic and is more likely to accumulate in rice grains under flooded systems. We postulate that increased levels of highly reactive iron minerals, such as ferrihydrite, in paddy soils can regulate the bioavailability of arsenic and reduce its uptake by priming iron plaque formation.
