Abstract

Agricultural practices are known to have a crucial influence not only on soil physico-chemical properties but also on microbial communities. To investigate the effect of farming practices on soil microbial communities, a total of 10 soil samples were collected, including five conventional and five organic farming soils cultivated with peppers in plastic greenhouse. We conducted barcorded-pyrosequencing of V1-V3 regions of 16S rRNA genes to examine soil microbial communities of two different farming practices. Taxonomic classification of the microbial communities at the phylum level indicated that a total of 22 bacterial phyla were present across all samples. Among them, seven abundant phyla (>3%) including Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, Acidobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Chloroflexi, and Gemmatimonadetes were found, and Proteobacteria (33.0 ± 5.7%), Actinobacteria (19.9 ± 9.7%), and Firmicutes (13.6 ± 5.0%) comprised more than 66% of the relative abundance of the microbial communities. Organic farming soils showed higher relative abundances of Proteobacteria and Firmicutes, while Actinobacteria and Chloroflexi were more abundant in conventional farming soils. Notably, the genera Bacillus (higher in organic farming soils) and Streptomyces (higher in conventional farming soils) exhibited significant variation in relative abundance between organic and conventional farming soils. Finally, correlation analysis identified significant relationships (p<0.05) between soil chemical properties, in particular, pH and organic matter content and microbial communities. Taken together, this study demonstrated that the changes of soil physico-chemical properties by agricultural farming practices effected significantly (p<0.05) on soil microbial communities.

작물 재배 방법이 토양의 미생물 군집 특성과 화학성에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 이를 위해서 다섯 곳의 고추 관행 재배지와 다섯 곳의 유기농 재배지 토양을 채취한 후, 16S rRNA 유전자 기반의 파이로시퀀싱 기법으로 미생물 군집을 조사하였다. 분석 결과 총 22개의 세균 문으로 구성되었으며 Proteobacteria 문(33.0 ± 5.7%), Actinobacteria 문(19.9 ± 9.7%) 및 Firmicutes 문(13.6 ± 5.0%)이 우점하였고, 이들은 전체 상대풍부도의 66%를 차지하였다. 고추 관행 재배지와 유기농 재배지의 미생물 군집 분포를 비교했을 때 전반적으로 서로 다른 군집 특성을 나타내었다. 또한 관행 재배 토양에서는 Actinobacteria 문과 Chloroflexi 문이 상대적으로 풍부하였고, 유기 재배 토양에서는 Proteobacteria 문과 Firimicutes 문이 상대적으로 풍부하였다. 특히 Streptomyces 속과 Bacillus 속의 상대풍부도는 관행 재배 토양과 유기 재배 토양 간에 상당한 차이를 보였다. 또한 토양 화학 성에 의하여 세균 군집 변화가 관찰되었는데, Proteobacteria 문의 Rhizobiales 목과 Actinobacteria 문의 Streptomyces 속은 pH에 의해 세균 군집이 바뀌었고, Firimicutes 문의 Bacillus 속은 유기물 함량에 의해 군집 분포가 바뀌었다. 본 연구결과는 재배관리에 따른 토양의 물리-화학성의 변화가 미생물 군집 분포에 뚜렷하게 관련(p<0.05)되어 있다는 것을 보여주었다.
