ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of the inoculation of potassium-solubilizing bacteria on the rhizosphere soil microenvironment of Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis. MethodThe effects of different potassium-solubilizing bacteria on the physical and chemical properties， microbial community structure， and soil enzyme activity in the rhizosphere soil of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis were investigated by pot planting at room temperature. The correlation of various indexes was analyzed. ResultThe inoculation with different potassium-solubilizing bacteria could significantly affect the physical and chemical properties of rhizosphere soil of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis. The mass fractions of available nitrogen， available phosphorus， and available potassium were 24.5-90.5 mg·kg-1， 2.53-25.9 mg·kg-1， and 132-312 mg·kg-1， respectively， and the soil pH was 7.08-7.75， which were in line with the optimal ranges of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis planting. The inoculation of different potassium-solubilizing bacteria could affect the number of bacteria， actinomycetes， and fungi in rhizosphere soil to varying degrees. The transformation of soil from "fungal type" to "bacterial type" marks the improvement of soil fertility. It also affected the enzyme activity of rhizosphere soil， and the activities of neutral phosphatase， protease， and polyphenol oxidase showed an increasing trend. The correlation analysis showed that the number of bacteria was negatively correlated with the number of fungi （r=-0.856， P<0.01）， positively correlated with the number of actinomycetes， the content of available nitrogen and available potassium， and negatively correlated with soil pH. ConclusionThe inoculation of potassium-solubilizing bacteria can effectively improve the content of available potassium， available nitrogen， available phosphorus， and other nutrients in the rhizosphere soil of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis， improve soil fertility， alleviate the continuous cropping obstacles of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis， and lay a theoretical foundation for the green and sustainable development of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of inoculation of potassium-solubilizing bacteria on the physiological characteristics of Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis. MethodThe effects of different potassium-solubilizing bacteria on leaf area，photosynthetic pigment content， and active component indexes of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis were investigated by pot planting at room temperature. ResultThe results showed that the inoculation of potassium-solubilizing bacteria could increase the leaf area of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis. The largest average leaf area was observed in the S3 group，reaching 10.497 cm2，with a maximum increase of 11.0% compared with that of the CK group. The inoculation of potassium-solubilizing bacteria could increase the content of photosynthetic pigments in leaves. Among them，the increase in chlorophyll a content was significant （P<0.05），which was 80.6% higher than that of the CK group. The chlorophyll a/b values in all treatment groups were higher than that of the CK group. The activities of superoxide dismutase（SOD），catalase（CAT） and peroxidase（POD） in the leaves of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis increased by 88.4%，33.8%， and 30.6%，respectively， as compared with that in the CK group. The inoculation of potassium-solubilizing bacteria could promote the accumulation of osmoregulation substances such as soluble sugar and soluble protein in leaf cells of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis，with a maximum increase of 55.3% and 70.5% respectively compared with that of the CK group. Meanwhile，it also reduced the content of malondialdehyde（MDA），with a maximum decrease of 34.1% compared with that of the CK group. The results of correlation analysis showed that there were some correlations between different chemical components in P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis leaves. ConclusionThe inoculation of potassium-solubilizing bacteria can effectively promote the growth and development of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis and improve its survival ability in adversity. It is of practical scientific significance and potential application value for improving the survival rate of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis by artificial planting.
