Abstract

In a laboratory pot experiment, two mutant cultivars of sunflower (Helianthus annuus cv. r2p2 and Helianthus annuus cv. r5n1) were grown on soils with anthropogenic polyelemental anomalies and on a background control soil, and a comparative analysis of their rhizospheric microflora was carried out. The number of soil bacteria, actinomycetes, and micromycetes, as well as the number of rhizospheric microorganisms resistant to Zn2+, Pb2+, and Cu2+ ions, were estimated in the rhizosphere of sunflower cultivars. Quantitative changes in the sunflower rhizospheric microbocenoses formed under the influence of both the plant genotype and anthropogenic soil pollution, were revealed. A pronounced stimulation of the number of rhizospheric microorganisms of all groups studied in the plants that were cultivated on the anthropogenically contaminated soil from PJSC Kosogorsk Metallurgical Plant was found. In this case, cultivar differences were observed; namely, the maximal number of bacteria and actinomycetes was revealed in the rhizosphere of H. annuus cv. r2p2, while the maximal number of micromycetes was revealed in the rhizosphere of H. annuus cv. r5n1. An increased number of microorganisms resistant to lead ions was revealed in the rhizosphere of H. annuus cv. r2p2. The observed changes in the structure of rhizospheric microbial communities of the sunflower cultivars associated with the stimulation of the growth and activity of soil microflora, may be in demand for phytoremediation of anthropogenically contaminated soils.
