Specifically, it evaluated the effect of Chaetomium globosum CEF-082 on the composition structure of the soil microbial community in the rhizosphere of chili peppers. Methods Rhizosphere soil samples were collected from farmlands with continuous cropping for 3 years (Y3) and 20 years (Y20). Chaetomium globosum CEF-082 spore solution was treated in a greenhouse, and antagonism experiments were conducted on solid medium of glucose potato. Results The results indicated that prolonged planting led to severe soil nutrient loss, a 94.2% decrease in total nitrogen content, and a significant increase in the abundance of the pathogenic bacterium Fusarium. In vitro experiments confirmed that CEF-082 has a strong antagonistic activity against the main pathogenic bacteria of Fusarium. Greenhouse pot experiments have shown that the application of CEF-082 can significantly reduce the mortality rate of seedlings and improve the growth parameters of plants. High-throughput sequencing results showed that CEF-082 reshaped the rhizospheric microbial community, reduced the relative abundance of Fusarium, and might promote the colonization of beneficial Trichoderma species. Conclusions We believe that C. globosum CEF-082 alleviates CCOs through multiple mechanisms such as direct antagonism, regulation of rhizosphere microbiota, and improvement of soil nutrient availability. This study provides a sustainable strategy based on the microbiota for the management of soil-borne diseases in solanaceous crops.

Greenhouse pot experiments have shown that the application of CEF-082 can significantly reduce the mortality rate of seedlings and improve the growth parameters of plants. High-throughput sequencing results showed that CEF-082 reshaped the rhizospheric microbial community, reduced the relative abundance of Fusarium, and might promote the colonization of beneficial Trichoderma species.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConclusions\u003c/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe believe that C. globosum CEF-082 alleviates CCOs through multiple mechanisms such as direct antagonism, regulation of rhizosphere microbiota, and improvement of soil nutrient availability. This study provides a sustainable strategy based on the microbiota for the management of soil-borne diseases in solanaceous crops.\u003c/p\u003e","manuscriptTitle":"Alleviation of Pepper Continuous Cropping Obstacles by Chaetomium globosum CEF-082 Through Rhizosphere Microbiome Manipulation","msid":"","msnumber":"","nonDraftVersions":[{"code":1,"date":"2025-12-11 09:16:41","doi":"10.21203/rs.3.rs-8023939/v1","editorialEvents":[{"type":"communityComments","content":0},{"type":"decision","content":"Minor revisions","date":"2026-01-29T10:29:50+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"reviewerAgreed","content":"","date":"2025-12-14T18:12:30+00:00","index":0,"fulltext":""},{"type":"reviewersInvited","content":"","date":"2025-12-07T11:51:50+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"editorInvited","content":"Plant and Soil","date":"2025-11-27T06:37:19+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"editorAssigned","content":"","date":"2025-11-27T03:07:30+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"submitted","content":"Plant and Soil","date":"2025-11-21T03:32:12+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""}],"status":"published","journal":{"display":true,"email":"
