A meta-analysis of anaerobic soil disinfestation (ASD) efficacy against Fusarium oxysporum (Fo) and Fo f. sp. lycopersici (Fol) was conducted emphasizing effects of environment and organic amendment characteristics, and pot and field studies conducted on ASD amendment C:N ratio and soil temperature effects on Fol inoculum survival. In a pot study, two organic amendments, dry molasses-based or wheat bran-based applied at 4 mg C/g soil, with 40:1, 30:1, 20:1, and 10:1 C:N ratios, were evaluated against Fol at 15-25°C. This was followed by a pot study at temperature regimes of 15-25°C and 25-35°C, and two C:N ratios (20:1 and 40:1), and a field study at 40:1, 30:1, 20:1, and 10:1 C:N ratios, 30:1 C:N ratio at lower C rate (2 mg C/g soil), and an anaerobic control. Soil temperature above 25°C, and more labile amendments, increased ASD suppression of Fo/Fol in the meta-analysis. In pot studies, Fol survival was reduced for molasses-based mixtures at 20:1 and 30:1 C:N ratios, compared to wheat bran-based, but not compared to the anaerobic control. At 25-35°C, all ASD treatments suppressed Fol relative to controls. In the field, all ASD treatments reduced Fol survival compared to the anaerobic control, and 4 mg C/g soil amendment rates induced increased anaerobic conditions and higher Fol mortality compared to the 2 mg C/g soil rate. While amendment C:N ratios from 10 to 40:1 were similarly suppressive of Fo, lower temperatures reduced ASD effectiveness against Fo/Fol and further work is warranted to enhance suppression at soil temperatures below 25°C.

Charcoal rot and Fusarium wilt, caused by Macrophomina phaseolina and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. fragariae, respectively, are major soil-borne diseases of strawberry that have caused significant crop losses in California. Anaerobic soil disinfestation has been studied as an industry-level option to replace soil fumigants to manage these serious diseases. Studies were conducted to discern whether Gramineae carbon input type, incubation temperature, or incubation duration influences the efficacy of this disease control tactic. In experiments conducted using ‘low rate’ amendment applications at moderate day/night temperatures (24/18 °C), and carbon inputs (orchard grass, wheat, and rice bran) induced an initial proliferation and subsequent decline in soil density of the Fusarium wilt pathogen. This trend coincided with the onset of anaerobic conditions and a corresponding generation of various anti-fungal compounds, including volatile organic acids, hydrocarbons, and sulfur compounds. Generation of these metabolites was associated with increases in populations of Clostridium spp. Overall, carbon input and incubation temperature, but not incubation duration, significantly influenced disease suppression. All Gramineae carbon inputs altered the soil microbiome and metabolome in a similar fashion, though the timing and maximum yield of specific metabolites varied with input type. Fusarium wilt and charcoal rot suppression were superior when anaerobic soil disinfestation was conducted using standard amendment rates of 20 t ha−1 at elevated temperatures combined with a 3-week incubation period. Findings indicate that anaerobic soil disinfestation can be further optimized by modulating carbon source and incubation temperature, allowing the maximum generation of antifungal toxic volatile compounds. Outcomes also indicate that carbon input and environmental variables may influence treatment efficacy in a target pathogen-dependent manner which will require pathogen-specific optimization of treatment protocols.

Over Time

AbstractAnaerobic soil disinfestation (ASD) is an organic amendment-based management tool for controlling soil-borne plant diseases and is increasingly used in a variety of crops. ASD results in a marked decrease in soil redox potential and other physicochemical changes, and a turnover in the composition of the soil microbiome. Mechanisms of ASD-mediated pathogen control are not fully understood, but appear to depend on the carbon source used to initiate the process and involve a combination of biological (i.e., release of volatile organic compounds) and abiotic (i.e., lowered pH, release of metal ions) factors. In this study, we examined how the soil microbiome changes over time in response to ASD initiated with rice bran, tomato pomace, or red grape pomace as amendments using growth chamber mesocosms that replicate ASD-induced field soil redox conditions. Within 2 days, the soil microbiome rapidly shifted from a diverse assemblage of taxa to being dominated by members of the Firmicutes for all ASD treatments, whereas control mesocosms maintained diverse and more evenly distributed communities. Rice bran and tomato pomace amendments resulted in microbial communities with similar compositions and trajectories that were different from red grape pomace communities. Quantitative PCR showed nitrogenase gene abundances were higher in ASD communities and tended to increase over time, suggesting the potential for altering soil nitrogen availability. These results highlight the need for temporal and functional studies to understand how pathogen suppressive microbial communities assemble and function in ASD-treated soils.
