abstract = {<jats:p> In Western France, rapeseed ( Brassica napus) cultivation faces substantial yield losses due to the root holoparasitic plant Phelipanche ramosa. However, recent observations have shown a reduction in parasitism within previously heavily infested fields. This study investigates two neighboring rapeseed soils with distinct levels of parasitic infestation, considered suppressive and conducive. Using a cocultivation system of Brassica napus and P. ramosa, we comprehensively examined rhizosphere exudates, parasitic plant attachment, and rhizosphere soil microbiota. Our findings revealed that the suppressive soil effectively reduced parasitism by impeding broomrape attachment and development, as well as inducing necrosis of tubercles. This suppressive effect was specific to postattachment stages, leaving germination and haustoriogenesis preattachment stages unaffected. Analysis of microbial structures suggested that the suppression of parasitism is predominantly of fungal rather than bacterial origin. Correlation network analyses identified three groups of amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) associated with suppression. Notably, seven ASVs were inversely correlated with parasitic attachments, and only one ASV, identified as Berkeleyomyces, a necrotrophic fungus responsible for black root rot, was positively correlated with necrosis and was more abundant in the suppressive soil. This study demonstrates the contrasting parasitic plant development on two physicochemically similar soils, highlighting the central role of fungal dynamics in the rhizosphere. These results provide valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying soil-mediated suppression of P. ramosa, offering potential strategies for mitigating the impact of this root holoparasite on rapeseed yields in the region. </jats:p>},

abstract = {Purpose

The root holoparasitic plant Phelipanche ramosa has become a major constraint for rapeseed cultivation in western France for the last decades and its control remains challenging. To date, few studies have considered soil microbiota as a third partner of the parasitic plant-plant interaction. Therefore, we here addressed the question of how soil microbiota interferes with host-derived signal metabolites required for host plant recognition by the parasitic plant.



Methods

Using a branched broomrape infested soil (genetic group 1) from a rapeseed field, we first provided soil physicochemical and microbiological descriptions by metabarcoding, followed by P. ramosa seed germination and prehaustorium formation bioassays, and by in vitro co-cultivation with Brassica napus.



Results

Co-cultivation in presence of soil microorganisms promoted parasitic plant seed germination and attachments to host’s roots. Seed germination assays showed that only the combination of gluconasturtiin (main rapeseed glucosinolate) with soil extracts stimulated broomrape germination. This suggests a microbial conversion of gluconasturtiin into germination stimulants via soil microbial myrosinase enzymes. Furthermore, soil bacteria Arthrobacter, Ralstonia, Actinobacterium, Proteobacterium spp. and fungus Penicillium spp. were isolated and screened for myrosinase activity. Pre-germinated seeds treated with soil extracts or differentially filtrated soil extracts also promoted the formation of P. ramosa prehaustorium and led to more parasitic attachments on rapeseed roots in co-cultivation assays. This thus suggests that this enhancement of parasitic attachments could also be partly attributed to soil microbial production of haustorium inducing factors.



Conclusion

Soil microbiota influences B. napus - P. ramosa interaction by altering direct and indirect recognition signals.},
