Specific microorganisms and metabolites in soil play key roles regulating organismal behavior. Currently, the effects of different preceding crops on rhizosphere quality flue-cured tobacco remain unclear. Four treatments were compared study: fallow + (CK), maize (T1), rapeseed (T2), wheat (T3). Results showed that significantly enhanced nutrient levels improved growth by altering microbial community structure. Previous cultivation promoted growth, diversity bacterial communities, notably decreased abundance urea-degrading bacteria. In contrast, crop reduced plant pathogenic fungi positive interactions. Metabolomics analysis altered lipids, organic acids, flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids, enhancing secondary metabolite synthesis pathways soil. Preceding regulated which potentially participated carbon nitrogen cycling, balancing nutrients, improving yield. Overall, three composition function structures soil, thereby increased concentration. Both boosted biomass. These findings offer new insights into potential interactions between communities strategies comprehensively growth.
