Rhizosphere microbiome exerts a significant role in plant health, influencing nutrient availability, disease resistance, and overall growth. Establishing robust efficient nodulation process is essential for optimal nitrogen fixation legumes like soybeans. Different soybean genotypes exhibit variations their rhizosphere microbiome, potentially impacting through nodulation. However, detailed understanding of how specific influence microbial communities patterns remains limited. Our study aims to investigate the relationship between abundance growth four genotypes. We evaluated parameters, including biomass, leaf area, stomatal conductance, identified genotypic differences Specifically, PI 458505 603490 exhibited high levels nodulation, while 605839A 548400 displayed low 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing revealed diverse bacterial rhizosphere, with Proteobacteria as dominant phylum. High-nodulation harbored more enriched Actinobacteria Acidobacteriota, low-nodulation showed higher abundances Firmicutes Planctomycetota. Alpha beta diversity analyses confirmed distinct community structures high- groups. findings suggest that significantly influences highlighting potential genotype-driven strategies enhance plant-microbe interactions improve productivity.

Introduction The rhizosphere microbiome plays a critical role in plant growth and productivity. However, the genotype-specific dynamics functional influence of these microbial communities on soybean ( Glycine max (L.) Merri.) yield traits remain underexplored. This study investigated composition implications conventional genetically modified (GM) varieties under field conditions. Methods A comparative analysis was conducted associated with H0269 transgenic Z1510 M579 at seedling flowering stages. High-throughput sequencing 16S rDNA ITS regions used to profile bacterial fungal communities. Alpha beta diversity metrics were assessed, correlation analyses performed identify taxa linked traits. Results Distinct community structures observed across genotypes Proteobacteria , Acidobacteriota Actinobacteria dominant phyla, while Ascomycota predominated among fungi. Genotype-specific differences evident, exhibiting highest alpha diversity. Beta revealed significant shifts between stages, particularly for Correlation identified 15 13 species significantly such as density, grain weight, theoretical yield. Discussion results highlight genotype-dependent recruitment microorganisms their potential impact GM selectively enriched beneficial microbes that may enhance nutrient uptake, stress tolerance, disease resistance. These findings provide valuable insights into plant-microbe interactions, paving way developing inoculants breeding strategies optimize sustainable agriculture.
