The study of the rhizospheric microbiome in native plants should be a prerequisite before carrying out the phytomanagement of mine tailings. The goal of this work was to evaluate the rhizospheric microbiome of Piptatherum miliaceum in semiarid mine tailings. A comprehensive edaphic characterization was performed including the description of soil microbial composition in the rhizosphere of P. miliaceum growing at a mine tailings pile and at a control site. Plant nutritional and isotopic compositions were also determined. Neutral pH of the tailings (7.3) determined low metal extractability in 0.01 M CaCl2 (e.g. < 1 mg/kg for Zn). In spite of the contrasting edaphic fertility conditions of both sites, N (~ 15 g kg−1) and P (~ 400 mg kg−1) leaf concentrations were similar. The lower δ15N at the tailings plants (− 4.50‰) compared to the control (6.42‰) indicated greater efficiency of P. miliaceum for uptaking N under the low fertility conditions of the tailings (0.1% total soil nitrogen). The presence at the tailings of bacterial orders related to the cycling of N, such as Rhizobiales, could have contributed to enhance N acquisition. The lower leaf δ13C values at the tailings (− 30.22‰) compared to the control (− 28.47‰) indicated lower water use efficiency of the tailing plants. Some organotrophic bacterial and fungal groups in the tailings' rhizospheres were also found in the control site (e.g. Cytophagales, Sphingobacteriales for bacteria; Hypocreales, Pleosporales for fungi). This may indicate that P. miliaceum is able to shape its own specific microbiome at the tailings independently from the initial microbial composition of the tailings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
