Abstract
Salvia miltiorrhiza is a significant traditional Chinese medicine commonly utilized in the treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. However, its application and development are hindered by issues related to mixed genotypes and the content of medicinal ingredients not meeting the standards. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and dark septate endophytes (DSE) are representative symbiotic fungi that show great potential for improving the growth and quality of S. miltiorrhiza. In this study, we examined the effects of genotype, growth period, and rhizosphere soil factors on species diversity, community composition, and colonization characteristics of AMF and DSE using morphological characteristics and molecular identification techniques. The results indicated that different genotypes and growth periods of S. miltiorrhiza could be colonized by AMF and DSE, although variations existed in the structure and sites of colonization. A total of 93 AMF strains from 11 genera and 35 DSE strains from 19 genera were isolated and identified. Among them, Glomus and Acaulospora were the dominant genera among AMF, while Alternaria alternata and Macrophomina phaseolina were common dominant species in DSE. Variance partitioning analysis indicated that the three-way interaction of genotype, growth period, and soil factors accounted for the highest percentages of AMF and DSE species diversity, at 58.06 % and 62.26 %, respectively. Two-factor analysis of variance indicated that both AMF and DSE species diversity exhibited a trend of October > August > March, with genotypes Z3 and Z4 demonstrating higher species diversity and segregation rates compared to Z1 and Z2. Correlation analysis shows that the main soil factors affecting the diversity of AMF and DSE include pH, SOC and NH4+-N. In conclusion, this study not only enriched our understanding of the symbiotic relationship between S. miltiorrhiza and endophytic fungi (AMF and DSE), but also deepened our knowledge of their ecological functions. Furthermore, it provided a theoretical foundation for the isolation and conservation of endophytic fungal germplasm resources, as well as their subsequent application in the cultivation of Chinese medicinal materials.

期刊介绍:
Rhizosphere aims to advance the frontier of our understanding of plant-soil interactions. Rhizosphere is a multidisciplinary journal that publishes research on the interactions between plant roots, soil organisms, nutrients, and water. Except carbon fixation by photosynthesis, plants obtain all other elements primarily from soil through roots.
We are beginning to understand how communications at the rhizosphere, with soil organisms and other plant species, affect root exudates and nutrient uptake. This rapidly evolving subject utilizes molecular biology and genomic tools, food web or community structure manipulations, high performance liquid chromatography, isotopic analysis, diverse spectroscopic analytics, tomography and other microscopy, complex statistical and modeling tools.
