To screen for efficient inoculants suitable for cut lily and to reveal the mechanisms of action, this study used the dominant cultivar \u2018Siberia\u2019 (\n                    <jats:italic>Lilium<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2018Siberia\u2019) as material and conducted a field experiment under solar greenhouse conditions in Lingyuan, Liaoning Province, using three commercial microbial inoculants: Treatment A (Shentai\n                    <jats:italic>Trichoderma<\/jats:italic>\n                    combination, containing\n                    <jats:italic>Trichoderma harzianum<\/jats:italic>\n                    and its metabolites), Treatment B (Moon composite inoculant, containing\n                    <jats:italic>Trichoderma<\/jats:italic>\n                    ,\n                    <jats:italic>Purpureocillium lilacinum<\/jats:italic>\n                    ,\n                    <jats:italic>Bacillus subtilis<\/jats:italic>\n                    , etc.), and Treatment C (Fengde composite inoculant, mainly\n                    <jats:italic>Bacillus subtilis<\/jats:italic>\n                    ). The study systematically measured lily growth and commercial traits, soil physicochemical properties, and rhizosphere microbial community structure, and analyzed the linkage mechanism of \u201cinoculant\u2014soil physicochemical properties\u2014rhizosphere microbial community\u2014comprehensive lily quality.\u201d The results showed that Treatment A (Shentai\n                    <jats:italic>Trichoderma<\/jats:italic>\n                    combination) had the best comprehensive effect, significantly increasing plant height, stem diameter, and green leaf rate, and reducing leaf yellowing and abscission index. At the same time, it significantly increased soil total nitrogen, total phosphorus, available nitrogen, and organic matter content, and optimized the rhizosphere microecological environment. Further microbial community analysis indicated that Treatment A specifically enriched putatively beneficial taxa such as\n                    <jats:italic>Pseudomonas<\/jats:italic>\n                    and\n                    <jats:italic>Streptomyces<\/jats:italic>\n                    , and functional fungi such as\n                    <jats:italic>Trichoderma<\/jats:italic>\n                    and\n                    <jats:italic>Mucor<\/jats:italic>\n                    , while reducing the relative abundance of potentially pathogenic taxa such as\n                    <jats:italic>Fusarium<\/jats:italic>\n                    and\n                    <jats:italic>Rhizoctonia<\/jats:italic>\n                    . It also increased the modularity and proportion of positive correlations in the bacterial-fungal co-occurrence network, forming a stable growth-promoting and disease-resistant functional module.
