Rhizosphere microbial community of monoculture cucumber in commercial greenhouses

Rhizospheric microorganisms are affected synthetically by plant and soil environment which can be altered by agriculture management. How rhizospheric microbial communities change in long-term continuous monoculture affected by soil properties is not yet fully understood. Here, we collected cucumber rhizospheric soil with more than 25 years continuous monoculture span from actual production greenhouses to demostrate during long-term continuous monoculture, soil properties are important factors that alter and structure microbial community, which should be considered when monoculture research and evaluating agricultural management strategies regarding crop and soil health.
