The impact of chemical fertilization on rhizosphere soil communities is a growing concern due to the changes they cause on microbes in soil ecosystems. The present study aims to compare mycorrhizal inoculation and fertilizer applications on bacterial and fungal communities in rhizosphere soil of intensively cultivated Robinia pseudoacacia and Populus x euramericana plantations using the Illumina Miseq sequencing platform. Our results revealed that the different host plants and applied treatments did not significantly affect soil bacterial diversity, but interfered with native rhizosphere bacterial communities in plantation sites. In contrast, host plants and inorganic fertilizer had a strong effect at the family and genus level on the composition of soil fungal communities. In conclusion, our findings suggest that the structure and composition of the fungal community are more sensitive to the nutrient sources in soil than bacteria.
