Abstract/Contents: | "Nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) fertility can have a significant impact on turfgrass diseases. Questions about whether these nutrients affect microbial community structure in the turfgrass rhizosphere remain unanswered. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the composition, diversity, and distribution of rhizosphere microorganisms in Poa annua (annual bluegrass) turf maintained as a putting green. Three 15.9 mm diameter × 50.8 mm long soil cores were sampled from four replicated plots receiving: (1) an intermediate N rate (132 kg N ha-1 yr-1); (2) K (200 kg K2O ha-1 yr-1); (3) N+K (1:1, N:K molar-adjusted ratio; 132 kg N ha-1 yr-1 and 200 kg K2O ha-1 yr-1); (4) a low N rate, (100 kg N ha-1 yr-1); or (5) a high N rate, (200 kg N ha-1 yr-1) (total samples = 60). N and K were applied as urea [CO(NH2)2] and potassium chloride (KCl), respectively. Organism-specific DNA regions were PCR amplified from fungi (ITS), bacteria and archaea (rDNA 16s). Multiplexed next-generation sequencing on an Illumina platform generated 2.3 × 107 reads (avg. 1.38 × 105 seq/per sample; avg. length 331 bp). After barcode trimming, demultiplexing, and chimera removal, 7.2 × 105 OTUs (97% identity) were identified using the open source QIIME pipeline in Python. Alpha diversity measures from rarified datasets showed that species diversity was highest in low and high N treatments, while diversity was lowest in plots receiving the intermediate rate of N. Detrended correspondence analysis performed using the Vegan module in R revealed significant differences in archaeal and bacterial communities from plots receiving intermediate N, K, or intermediate N+K treatments, compared to those receiving low or high rates of N. A similar finding was observed for the fungal community, indicating that differing management practices appear to be affecting the microbial community structure in this study." |
