The effects of the interaction between T. harzianum NJAU742 and the rhizosphere microbiome on plant growth (A), plant iron accumulation (B), and available iron of rhizosphere in calcareous soils (C). Simplified schematic of the experimental workflow (D, Image created with BioRender.com, with permission). Effect of Trichoderma and SynCom on tomato plant biomass (E), total iron accumulation in plants (F), and available iron content in the rhizosphere soil (G) under different inoculation treatments in the pot experiment. The changes in soil available iron content under different inoculation treatments in microcosm experiment (H). The inoculation treatments used in the study included T. harzianum NJAU4742 alone (T), SynCom alone (SynCom), and a combination of T. harzianum NJAU4742 and SynCom (T+SynCom). The bars in panels B–E indicate the mean ± standard deviation (s.d.) based on six independent biological replicates (shown as grey dots over the bars). Different lowercase letters above each bar indicate significant differences based on Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey’s HSD test (P < 0.05).
