Effects of Slope Position on the Rhizosphere and Fine Root Microbiomes of Cupressus gigantea on the Tibet Plateau, China
Cupressus gigantea is an endangered species mainly distributed on beach land, down-slope, and middle-slope positions along the Yarlung Zangbo River on the Tibet Plateau of China, with an altitude ranging from 3000 to 3400 m. We investigated the rhizosphere and fine root microbiomes of C. gigantea at these three slope positions through metagenomic analysis. Slope positions had a greater influence on microbiome composition in the rhizosphere than that in the fine roots. Down- and middle-slope positions presented higher microbial richness indeces and community similarity, while a more complex co-occurrence network was observed in the beach land samples. Rhizosphere bacterial community assembly was determined via deterministic processes in the beach land and via stochastic processes in the down- and middle-slope positions. Archaeal and fungal community assemblies were both dominated by stochastic processes in the rhizosphere and fine roots at the three slope positions. Nitrogen (N) functional genes were more sensitive to changes in slope positions than phosphorus (N) functional genes. Soil properties explained more than 60% and 34% of the variations in the N and P functional genes and more than 30% and 10% of the variations in the microbiomes in the rhizosphere and fine roots, respectively. Variation in the microbiome was significantly driven by total nirtogen, total potassium, pH, and soil moisture in rhizosphere, and by pH and soil moisture in fine roots. Our observations suggest that the effect of slope position on the microbiomes of C. gigantea was greater for the rhizosphere than the fine roots, with down- and middle-slope positions presenting higher community similarity.
