Effect of crop rotation and straw addition on microbial communities in rhizosphere and bulk soil
In this study, we analysed soil microbial responses to different crop rotation systems (rice-rice (RR), maize-maize (MM), rice-maize (MR)) and rice straw mulching in the rhizosphere of Zea maize and the surrounding bulk soil. Soils were collected from different field locations subjected to the different crop rotation systems and Zea maize were planted in a microcosm experiment. The bacterial and fungal community composition was analysed by 16S rRNA gene and ITS based amplicon sequencing.
