TOPICS
ABSTRACT
Soil legacy effects mediate plant-soil feedback and agricultural sustainability. It remains unclear
how soil legacy, driven by warming and AMF inoculation, affects the growth and reproduction of
subsequent plants. Here, the previous rape crop was subjected to warming and inoculation with
arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), and the subsequent plant, Impatiens balsamina, was cultivated
in the legacy soil of rape. Warming-driven soil legacy significantly increased stomatal conductance
(Gs) and intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci) of I. balsamina by 54.5% and 1.7%, respectively. However,
the soil legacy of rape inoculated with AMF significantly decreased Gs, Ci, and the transpiration rate
of I. balsamina by 53.4%, 4.47%, and 46.5%, respectively. Chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, such
as Sm, PIinst., and PIabs. of I. balsamina grown in the soil remaining after warming and AMF inoculation
in rape, were lower than those grown in the soil remaining after warming and AMF inoculation
in rapeseed. Soil legacy of rape inoculated with AMF significantly increased plant height of I. balsamina
by 7.8%, but decreased the seed number per fruit by 17.5%. The number of flowers per plant grown
in soil legacy of rape exposed to warming was 61.1% higher than that under ambient temperatures. Soil
legacy of rape exposed to warming and AMF inoculation significantly increased soil carbon content
by 16.2%, and the C/N ratio of legacy soil exposed to warming was significantly 7.8% higher than
that under ambient temperatures. These results suggest that the soil legacy of rape inoculated with
AMF promotes vegetative growth of the subsequent plant I. balsamina but inhibits seed production,
particularly in warming-driven legacy soil.
