摘要： Plant-associated microbial communities play important roles in agricultural productivity, and their composition has been shown to vary across plant compartments and developmental stages. However, the response of microbial communities within different plant compartments and at different developmental stages to diverse long-term fertilization treatments, as well as their linkages with crop yields, remains underexplored. This study analyzed wheat-associated bacterial communities within various soil and plant compartments under three fertilization treatments throughout the vegetative and reproductive phases. The variance in bacterial community was primarily attributed to compartments, followed by fertilization treatments and developmental stages. The composition of belowground bacterial communities (bulk soil, rhizosphere soil, and root) exhibited stronger responses to fertilization treatments than aboveground compartments (stem and leaf). The composition of belowground bacterial communities responded to fertilization treatments at all developmental stages, and it was significantly correlated with crop yields during the vegetative phase, whereas the aboveground community composition only showed a response to fertilization during the reproductive phase, at which point it was significantly correlated with crop yields. Moreover, during this reproductive phase, the co-occurrence network of aboveground bacterial communities exhibited enhanced complexity, and it contained an increased number of keystone species associated with crop yields, such as Sphingomonas spp., Massilia spp., and Frigoribacterium spp. Structural equation modeling indicated that augmenting total phosphorus levels in aboveground compartments could enhance crop yields by increasing the relative abundance of these keystone species during the reproductive phase. These findings highlight the pivotal role of aboveground bacterial communities in wheat production during the reproductive phase.IMPORTANCEThe developmental stage significantly influences crop-associated bacterial communities, but the relative importance of bacterial communities in different compartments to crop yields across various stages is still not well understood. This study reveals that belowground bacterial communities during the vegetative phase are significantly correlated with crop yields. Notably, during the reproductive phase, the composition of aboveground bacterial communities was significantly correlated with crop yields. During this phase, the complexity and enriched keystone species within the aboveground co-occurrence network underscore their role in boosting crop production. These results provide a foundation for developing microbiome-based products that are phase-specific and promote sustainable agricultural practices.
