- Intervention effect Most microbial inoculations reduced hydrolytic enzyme activity in diseased cotton roots compared with healthy roots.
- Intervention effect Microbial inoculants increased glomalin-related soil proteins by 2 to 85% relative to uninoculated controls.
- Intervention effect Microbial inoculants altered cotton rhizosphere bacterial communities.
- Intervention effect Microbial inoculants reduced Rhizoctonia solani populations in cotton rhizosphere.
- Intervention effect A. torulosa, Anabaena laxa and A. torulosa–Bacillus applications reduced R. solani ITS gene copies from approximately 1.47 × 10 11 to 1.34–1.42 × 10 5 per g soil.
- Intervention effect Microbial inoculants increased cotton yield by 3 to 23% compared with uninoculated controls.
- Mechanism The authors interpret microbial inoculants as modulating rhizosphere ecology to suppress disease and sustain cotton growth.
