Abstract:

In this study, the rhizosphere soil was taken at the physiological maturity stage of flax, and the effects of different concentrations of citric acid on the diversity, abundance and community structure of bacteria in the rhizosphere soil of flax were analyzed by 16S rRNA gene high-throughput sequencing technology and bioinformatics methods. The results showed that the ACE, Chao1, Simpson and Shannon index values of bacteria in the rhizosphere soil of flax treated with high concentration of citric acid were the highest, and the ACE and Chao1 index values were significantly higher than the control. The results of PCoA analysis showed that the community structure of bacterial OTU in the rhizosphere soil of flax treated with high concentration citric acid was the most different from that in the control soil. In terms of bacterial composition, all the dominant bacteria phylum was Patescibacteria, with an average proportion of 49.50%, and all the dominant bacteria genus was TM7a, with an average proportion of 32.99%. This experiment is helpful to provide a theoretical reference for the subsequent study of the effect of exogenous organic acids on the absorption of cadmium in flax.
