Despite their ecological and agricultural significance, the microbial processes in saline soils of arid regions remain poorly characterized. This first 16S rRNA amplicon-based study of Algerian saline soils examines bacterial communities and physico-chemical properties in the Naama salt flat, focusing on both bulk and rhizosphere soils associated with\n                    <jats:italic>Tamarix gallica<\/jats:italic>\n                    L. Bacterial diversity and community composition were analyzed through high-throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing on an Illumina MiSeq platform, and soil parameters, including salinity, nutrients, organic carbon, and water retention were measured. Sequence data were processed with QIIME2, and multivariate analyses were applied to compare soil types and explore correlations between taxa and soil properties. Rhizosphere soils tended towards higher Na\n                    <jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>\n                    , K\n                    <jats:sup>+<\/jats:sup>\n                    , and Ca\n                    <jats:sup>2+<\/jats:sup>\n                    levels, whereas bulk soils showed greater phosphorus availability. Bacterial diversity was lower in the rhizosphere, which was characterized by a distinct taxonomic composition, including taxa such as\n                    <jats:italic>Promicromonospora<\/jats:italic>\n                    and\n                    <jats:italic>Nocardioides<\/jats:italic>\n                    potentially involved in nutrient cycling and stress adaptation. Correlation analyses revealed microbial adaptations to salinity and nutrient availability. This study lays the groundwork for developing plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria aiming to combat land degradation and contribute to long-term food security and environmental resilience in arid regions.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fmicb.2026.1731684","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,10]],"date-time":"2026-08-10T14:30:32Z","timestamp":1786372232000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Unveiling the bacterial community structure and soil properties in bulk and rhizospheric compartments of Tamarix gallica from an arid Algerian saline ecosystem"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Hanaa","family":"Abdelbari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Applied Genetics in Agriculture, Ecology and Public Health Laboratory, University of Tlemcen","place":["Tlemcen, Algeria"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Natalia","family":"Rodr\u00edguez-Berbel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ecology and Ecosystem Management, TUM School of Life Sciences Weihenstephan, Chair of Soil Science, Technical University of Munich","place":["Freising, Germany"]},{"name":"Research Unit Comparative Microbiome Analyses, Helmholtz Zentrum M\u00fcnchen","place":["Munich, Germany"]},{"name":"Department of Agronomy & Center for Intensive Mediterranean Agrosystems and Agri-Food Biotechnology (CIAIMBITAL), University of Almeria","place":["Almer\u00eda, Spain"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ra\u00fal","family":"Ortega","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agronomy & Center for Intensive Mediterranean Agrosystems and Agri-Food Biotechnology (CIAIMBITAL), University of Almeria","place":["Almer\u00eda, Spain"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Isabel","family":"Miralles","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agronomy & Center for Intensive Mediterranean Agrosystems and Agri-Food Biotechnology (CIAIMBITAL), University of Almeria","place":["Almer\u00eda, Spain"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yassine Moustafa","family":"Mahdad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Applied Genetics in Agriculture, Ecology and Public Health Laboratory, University of Tlemcen","place":["Tlemcen, Algeria"]},{"name":"Laboratory for Sustainable Management of Natural Resources in Arid and Semi-Arid Areas, University Center of Na\u00e2ma","place":["Na\u00e2ma, Algeria"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Semir Bechir Suheil","family":"Gaouar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Applied Genetics in Agriculture, Ecology and Public Health Laboratory, University of Tlemcen","place":["Tlemcen, Algeria"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"100482","DOI":"10.1016\/j.stress.2024.100482","article-title":"Halotolerant plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria improve soil fertility and plant salinity tolerance for sustainable agriculture\u2014a review","volume":"12","author":"AbuQamar","year":"2024","journal-title":"Plant Stress"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"307","DOI":"10.1007\/s00203-023-03654-1","article-title":"Complete genome sequence analysis of plant growth-promoting bacterium, Isoptericola sp.
