摘要: Rhizospheric interactions among plant roots, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, and plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) can enhance plant health by promoting nutrient acquisition and stimulating the plant immune system. This pot experiment, conducted in autoclaved soil, explored the synergistic impacts of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Funneliformis mosseae with four individual bacterial strains, viz.: Cronobacter sp. Rz-7, Serratia sp. 5-D, Pseudomonas sp. ER-20 and Stenotrophomonas sp. RI-4 A on maize growth, root functional traits, root exudates, root colonization, and nutrient uptake. The comprehensive biochemical characterization of these bacterial strains includes assessments of mineral nutrient solubilization, plant hormone production, and drought tolerance. The results showed that all single and interactive treatments of the mycorrhizal fungus and bacterial strains improved maize growth, as compared with the control (no fungus or PGPB). Among single treatments, the application of the mycorrhizal fungus was more effective than the bacterial strains in stimulating maize growth. Within the bacterial treatments, Serratia sp. 5-D and Pseudomonas sp. ER-20 were more effective in enhancing maize growth than Cronobacter sp. Rz-7 and Stenotrophomonas sp. RI-4 A. All bacterial strains were compatible with Funneliformis mosseae to improve root colonization and maize growth. However, the interaction of mycorrhiza and Serratia sp. 5-D (M + 5-D) was the most prominent for maize growth improvement comparatively to all other treatments. We observed that bacterial strains directly enhanced maize growth while indirectly promoting biomass accumulation by facilitating increased mycorrhizal colonization, indicating that these bacteria acted as mycorrhizal helper bacteria.
