ABSTRACT
Understanding the roles of core bacterial taxa in forage production is crucial for developing sustainable fertilization practices that enhance the soil bacteria and forage yield. This study aims to investigate the impact of different fertilization regimes on soil bacterial community structure and function, with a particular focus on the role of core bacterial taxa in contributing to soil nutrient content and enhancing forage yield. Field experiments and high-throughput sequencing techniques were used to analyze the soil bacterial community structure and function under various fertilization regimes, including six treatments, control with no amendment (CK), double the standard rate of organic manure (T01), the standard rate of organic manure with nitrogen input equal to T04 (T02), half the standard rate of inorganic fertilizer plus half the standard rate of organic manure (T03), the standard rate of inorganic fertilizer reflecting local practice (T04), and double the standard rate of inorganic fertilizer (T05). The results demonstrated that organic manure treatments, particularly T01, significantly increased the forage yield and the diversity of core bacterial taxa. Core taxa from the Actinomycetota, Alphaproteobacteria, and Gammaproteobacteria classes were crucial in enhancing the soil nutrient content, directly correlating with forage yield. Fertilization significantly influenced functions relating to carbon and nitrogen cycling, with core taxa playing central roles. The diversity of core microbiota and soil nutrient levels were key determinants of forage yield variations across treatments. These findings underscore the critical role of core bacterial taxa in agroecosystem productivity and advocate for their consideration in fertilization strategies to optimize forage yield, supporting the shift towards sustainable agricultural practices.
