This study investigates the impact of Burkholderia sp., a phosphate-solubilizing bacterium utilized as a biofertilizer, on the fertility of T. grandis soil, alongside the associated shifts in soil metabolites and their relationship with microbial communities after inoculation. The soil microbial community structures and metabolite profiles were analyzed via amplicon sequencing and high-resolution untargeted metabolomics. The inoculation of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria led to a significant (p &lt; 0.05) enhancement in total phosphorus, potassium, and nitrogen concentrations in the soil, with a marked increase in available phosphorus in bulk soil (p &lt; 0.05). Moreover, the microbial community structure exhibited significant shifts, particularly in the abundance of bacterial phyla such as Acidobacteria, Chloroflexi, Proteobacteria, and the fungal phylum Ascomycota. Metabolomic analysis revealed distinct metabolites, including fatty acids, hormones, amino acids, and drug-related compounds. Key microbial taxa such as Chloroflexi, Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria, Verrucomicrobia, Mucoromycota, and Ascomycota indirectly contributed to soil phosphorus metabolism by influencing these differential metabolites. In conclusion, the application of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria offers an innovative approach to improving soil quality in T. grandis, promoting phosphorus utilization efficiency, and enhancing soil ecosystem health by optimizing microbial communities and metabolite compositions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/plants13223209","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,15]],"date-time":"2024-11-15T04:47:17Z","timestamp":1731646037000},"page":"3209","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Soil Microbial and Metabolomic Shifts Induced by Phosphate-Solubilizing Bacterial Inoculation in Torreya grandis Seedlings"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Yi","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Subtropical Silviculture, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"},{"name":"School of Forestry and Biotechnology, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuanyuan","family":"Guan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Subtropical Silviculture, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"},{"name":"School of Forestry and Biotechnology, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhengchu","family":"Jiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Subtropical Silviculture, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"},{"name":"School of Forestry and Biotechnology, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qiandan","family":"Xie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Subtropical Silviculture, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"},{"name":"School of Forestry and Biotechnology, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qi","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Forestry and Biotechnology, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2403-4665","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chenliang","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Subtropical Silviculture, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"},{"name":"School of Forestry and Biotechnology, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Weiwu","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Subtropical Silviculture, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"},{"name":"School of Forestry and Biotechnology, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"},{"name":"NFGA Engineering Research Center for Torreya grandis \u2018Merrillii\u2019, Zhejiang A&F University, Hangzhou 311300, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"29","DOI":"10.3897\/phytokeys.192.79506","article-title":"Torreyadapanshanica (Taxaceae), a new species of gymnosperm from Zhejiang, East China","volume":"192","author":"Lu","year":"2022","journal-title":"PhytoKeys"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1877","DOI":"10.1021\/acs.jafc.8b06138","article-title":"Full-Length Transcriptome Analysis of the Genes Involved in Tocopherol Biosynthesis in Torreya grandis","volume":"67","author":"Lou","year":"2019","journal-title":"J.
