Its industrial processing produces a substantial amount of waste, particularly peels, which present an appealing potential source of bioactive compounds. This study focuses on optimizing the extraction of phenolics from kiwi peels using a water bath (WB) and infrared irradiation (IR) and assessing their biological activities. (2) Methods: Optimal conditions for polyphenol extraction from kiwifruit peels, in terms of temperature and time, were determined using Response Surface Methodology. Total phenolic content (TPC) was measured by the Folin-Ciocalteu method, and antioxidant activity was assessed utilizing the DPPH method. Antibacterial activities against <i>Bacillus cereus</i>, <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>, <i>Escherichia coli</i>, and <i>Salmonella</i> Typhimurium were determined using the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). The lyophilized extract was tested for its anticancer effect on A549 lung cancer cell lines. The phytochemical profiles of the WB and IR extracts were analyzed through High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). (3) Results: The optimal extraction conditions for the WB method were found to be 75 °C for 35 min, and 90 °C for 5 min for IR. The corresponding TPC obtained by IR was 21 mg GAE/g DM, which was 4.4 times higher than that obtained by WB (4.8 mg GAE/g DM). This indicates that IR was more efficient in extracting phenolics from kiwi peels. The antioxidant activity under the optimum conditions of WB and IR was 14 mg TE/g DM and 16 mg TE/g DM, respectively. Both the WB and IR extracts demonstrated antibacterial activity against <i>B. cereus</i> with an MIC value of 25 mg/mL. Additionally, the IR extract displayed an antibacterial effect against <i>S. aureus</i>, with an MIC value of 50 mg/mL. The WB and IR kiwi peel extracts were effective in significantly reducing A549 cell viability at 50 µg/mL and 100 µg/mL, respectively. Caffeic acid (0.54 ppm) and catechin (5.44 ppm) were the major polyphenols identified in WB and IR extracts, as determined by HPLC.

To realize this potential, it is necessary to utilize growth-promoting microorganisms. One potential source of such beneficial microorganisms is the rhizosphere community of wild-growing trees. However, the structure, dynamics, and metabolism of the rhizosphere community of wild-growing white poplar remain poorly understood. To ascertain seasonal dynamics, species diversity, and metabolic potential, we sequenced 16S rRNA genes in metagenomes derived from 165 soil samples collected in spring and autumn from the root surfaces of 102 trees situated in disparate geographical locations. The three most prevalent phyla across all samples are Proteobacteria, Actinobacteriota, and Acidobacteriota. At the order level, the most prevalent orders are Sphingomonadales and Rhizobiales. Accordingly, the families Sphingomonadaceae and Rhizobiaceae were identified as dominant. The rhizospheric microbiome exhibited substantial inter-seasonal variation. Six families, including Caulobacteraceae, Xanthomonadaceae, Chitinophagaceae, Chthoniobacteraceae, Sphingomonadaceae, and Rhizobiaceae, exhibited alterations (spring-to-autumn) across all geographical locations under study. Members of the Rhizobiaceae family, which includes nitrogen-fixing bacteria, can provide poplar with plant-available forms of nitrogen such as nitrate and ammonium. The rhizosphere microbiome may facilitate the conversion of inorganic sulfur into sulfur-containing amino acids, cysteine and methionine, that are bioavailable to plants. Furthermore, the rhizosphere microbiome is capable of synthesizing amino acids, organic acids (including Krebs cycle acids), and some lipids and sugars. Consequently, the rhizosphere community can stimulate poplar growth by providing it with readily available forms of nitrogen and sulfur, as well as building blocks for the synthesis of proteins, nucleic acids, and other macromolecules.
