The medicinal value of the Ferula L. has been recognized for more than a thousand years. Wild stocks of Ferula have declined dramatically because high economic value has led to overharvesting. The objective of this study was to compare the rhizosphere microbial community of four Ferula species [F. syreitschikowii K.-Pol., F. gracilis (Ledeb.) Ledeb., F. ferulaeoides (Steud.) Korov., and F. lehmannii Boiss.] in the northern part of Xinjiang, China. The 16S rRNA sequences of rhizosphere bacteria were obtained with an Illumina paired-end sequence platform. Analysis was conducted to determine the richness and diversity of the rhizosphere bacterial communities. Two-way ANOVA indicated that plant species and soil depth had no significant effect on the alpha diversity of rhizobacteria. Linear discriminant analysis effect size showed that F. lehmannii followed by F. ferulaeoides had the most biomarkers and the highest taxon level, F. syreitschikowii and F. gracilis the least, while F. syreitschikowii and F. gracilis had the least property. This trend is consistent with reports that the medicinal value of F. lehmannii and F. ferulaeoides is greater than that of F. gracilis and F. syreitschikowii. The results of this study provide information that could be used for the commercial cultivation of Ferula spp.
阿魏属的药用价值已被认可了一千多年。由于其具有很高的经济价值，野生阿魏属植物资源已大幅减少，导致过度采挖。本研究的目的是比较中国新疆北部四种阿魏属植物（新疆阿魏、甘松、新疆阿魏和白花阿魏）根际微生物群落的差异。采用 Illumina 双端测序平台获得根际细菌 16S rRNA 序列。分析根际细菌群落的丰富度和多样性。双因素方差分析表明，植物种类和土壤深度对根际细菌的α多样性没有显著影响。线性判别分析效应量显示，白花阿魏和新疆阿魏的生物标志物最多，分类水平最高，甘松和新疆阿魏最少，而甘松和新疆阿魏的特性最少。这一趋势与白花阿魏和新疆阿魏的药用价值大于甘松和新疆阿魏的报道一致。本研究结果为阿魏属植物的商业种植提供了信息。
