Abstract
Our results suggest that rhizosphere bacteria are more sensitive to bacterial leaf blight (BLB) than fungi. BLB infection decreased the diversity of the rhizosphere bacterial community but increased the complexity and size of the rhizosphere microbial community co-occurrence networks. In addition, the relative abundance of the genera Streptomyces, Chitinophaga, Sphingomonas, and Bacillus increased significantly. Finally, these findings contribute to the understanding of plant-microbiome interactions by providing critical insight into the ecological mechanisms by which rhizosphere microbes respond to phyllosphere diseases. In addition, it also lays the foundation and provides data to support the use of plant microbes to promote plant health in sustainable agriculture, providing critical insight into ecological mechanisms.
