Abstract: |
In view of the imbalance of soil microbial community structure and the decline of diversity caused by excessive application of nitrogen (N) fertilizer in potato production, a positioned field experiment of different N application rates (N0: no N application, control, N75: 75 kg·hm-2, N150: 150 kg·hm-2, N225: 225 kg·hm-2, N300: 300 kg·hm-2, and N375: 375 kg·hm-2) was conducted in 2013. Rhizosphere soil was collected during potato ripening period for 7 years. Molecular biological sequencing methods, Illumina PE250, was used to study the effects of different N levels on the rhizosphere fungi community structure of potato in semi\|arid areas for 5 consecutive years. The species composition of the potato rhizosphere fungi community was significantly affected by different N application rates. Ascomycota, Mucoromycota, and Basidiomycota were the three dominant fungi (relative abundance >1.0%). The relative abundance of Ascomycota was the largest, accounting for 75.48%~83.95% of the total sequence. The dominant species were Plectosphaerella (29.92%) and Fusarium (13.54%). The relative abundance of Fusarium, the pathogens of potato dry rot, and Fusarium wilt, increased with the increase in N application. Alpha diversity of potato rhizosphere fungi decreased with the increase in N application. Over\|application of N for 5 years resulted in a significant increase of NO-3-N content in 0~20 cm topsoil. The NO-3-N content in N375 treatment was 3.76 times higher than that in N0 treatment. Over\|application of N for 5 years also significantly reduced the pH value and available phosphorus content in rhizosphere. N375 treatment decreased 0.17 units and 32.10%, respectively, compared with N0 treatment. RDA and correlation analysis showed that soil nitrate N content was the main factor affecting the changes in fungal community structure in potato rhizosphere (F=1.571, P=0.043*). Continuous large\|scale application of N fertilizer significantly reduced potato tuber yield: after 5 years of continuous N application, due to the accumulation of NO-3-N in soil profile, the maximum yield fertilization decreased from N225 in 2013-2014 to N75, and other N treatments reduced the yield by 3.46%, 22.81%, 26.05% and 25.32%, respectively, compared with N75. Long\|term excessive N application resulted in a large accumulation of nitrate N in potato rhizosphere, which led to a decrease in pH, thus reducing the diversity of rhizosphere fungi. At the same time, excessive nitrogen application increased the relative abundance of soil fungal pathogens in the rhizosphere, which was not conducive to soil health and improving potato yield. |
