Intercropping has emerged as a viable strategy to address these issues.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n \n In the present study, monoculture of\n P. polyphylla<\/jats:italic>\n (PP) served as the control, while two intercropping systems were implemented:\n P. polyphylla<\/jats:italic>\n with\n Polygonatum cyrtonema<\/jats:italic>\n (PPPC) and\n P. polyphylla<\/jats:italic>\n with\n Ganoderma lucidum<\/jats:italic>\n (PPG). The objective was to evaluate the\n P. polyphylla<\/jats:italic>\n quality, soil physicochemical properties, and the structure of the microbial community.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n Findings revealed that the PPG intercropping system significantly increased available potassium levels by 50.28% and enhanced the abundance of\n Trichoderma<\/jats:italic>\n by 3,022% via the\n G. lucidum<\/jats:italic>\n network. These alterations were associated with improvements in\n P. polyphylla<\/jats:italic>\n yield (51.30%), polyphyllin VII content (34.16%), and total polyphyllin content (30.59%). Conversely, the PPPC system promoted the enrichment of\n Cupriavidus<\/jats:italic>\n and nitrogen-fixing bacteria such as\n Hyphomicrobiales<\/jats:italic>\n , leading to a 26.78% rise in available phosphorus and a 20.00% increase in polyphyllin II content in\n P. polyphylla<\/jats:italic>\n . Both intercropping approaches markedly elevated the abundance of Basidiomycota, with the PPPC system further enriching functional microbial taxa including Glomeromycota and\n Saitozyma<\/jats:italic>\n .\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Discussion<\/jats:title>\n \n Collectively, these results demonstrate that intercropping\n P. polyphylla<\/jats:italic>\n with either\n P. cyrtonema<\/jats:italic>\n (PPPC) or\n G. lucidum<\/jats:italic>\n (PPG) enhances soil physicochemical attributes, optimizes the composition of rhizosphere microbial communities, and positively influences the accumulation and yield of bioactive compounds.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fmicb.2025.1697736","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,6]],"date-time":"2025-11-06T18:38:00Z","timestamp":1762454280000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["The influence of intercropping Paris polyphylla with Polygonatum cyrtonema or Ganoderma lucidum on rhizosphere soil microbial community structure and quality of Paris polyphylla"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Hailan","family":"Su","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Penghui","family":"Liao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hong","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fengfang","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Meixia","family":"Zheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuqing","family":"Niu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wei","family":"Ye","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fanghua","family":"Mao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yujing","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yanghui","family":"Fang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yanming","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"112969","DOI":"10.1016\/j.scienta.2024.112969","article-title":"Arbuscularmycorrhizal fungi in tomato tolerance to pathogens and nematodes: a comprehensive review","volume":"329","author":"Abarca","year":"2024","journal-title":"Sci.
