摘要 [Objectives]To explore the effects of high soil temperature stress on microorganisms utilizing different carbon sources in the rhizosphere of pepper seedlings.[Methods]Using seedlings of the main pepper cultivar ‘Reyin 1’ as experimental materials,five soil temperature gradients (25,30,35,40,and 45 ℃) were established.After a 96 d cultivation,soil nutrient content and soil microbial functional diversity were measured to elucidate the impact of high soil temperature on the soil microenvironment.[Results]As soil temperature increased,the contents of total nitrogen,alkaline hydrolyzable nitrogen,available phosphorus,and rapidly available potassium generally showed a decreasing trend.However,under the 45 ℃ treatment,the contents of total nitrogen,available phosphorus,and rapidly available potassium were the highest among all treatments,although the alkaline hydrolyzable nitrogen content was significantly lower compared to the other treatments.BIOLOG analysis revealed that with increasing soil temperature,the average soil microbial absorbance value and the Shannon diversity index decreased significantly.In contrast,the Shannon evenness index and the Simpson dominance index showed no significant differences across the different temperature treatments.This indicates that as soil temperature rises,the carbon source utilization capacity of the soil microbial community decreases,leading to reduced overall carbon metabolic activity and microbial functional diversity,while the dominant microbial populations remained unchanged during this process.Principal component analysis further confirmed effective separation among the different temperature treatments,suggesting that high soil stress significantly altered the structure of the soil microbial community.[Conclusions]In practical production,appropriate measures should be taken to decrease soil temperature to create a favorable rhizosphere microenvironment and thereby promote crop growth.
