Abstract
Apple replant disease (ARD) is common in apple production, which seriously affects the growth and development of apples. In this study, hydrogen peroxide with a bactericidal effect was used to treat the replanted soil, and the effects of different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide on replanted seedlings and soil microbiology were investigated in order to seek a green, clean way to control ARD. Five treatments were set up in this study: replanted soil (CK1), replanted soil with methyl bromide fumigation (CK2), replanted soil + 1.5% hydrogen peroxide (H1), replanted soil + 3.0% hydrogen peroxide (H2), and replanted soil + 4.5% hydrogen peroxide (H3). The results showed that hydrogen peroxide treatment improved replanted seedling growth and also inactivated a certain number of Fusarium, while the Bacillus, Mortierella, and Guehomyces also became more abundant in relative terms. The best results were obtained with replanted soil + 4.5% hydrogen peroxide (H3). Consequently, hydrogen peroxide applied to the soil can effectively prevent and control ARD.
