Abstract

To evaluate the effect of genetically modified cotton planting on soil microbial community structure, four cotton materials, genetically modified cotton 013011 (drought-resistance), SGK321 (insect-resistance) and non-transgenic cotton TH2 (drought-resistant receptor) and Shiyuan321 (insect-resistant receptors) were selected to analyze the microbial community structure in their planting soil at cotton flowering and boll opening by using PLFA technology. The results showed that only the percentage of the bacterial in the soil of non-transgenic cotton TH2 and Shiyuan321 were higher than that of the corresponding GM varieties, while, no regular change was found in the other microbes. No significant difference was observed in the microbial community structure of soil between planting transgenic cotton and non-GM cotton except that the gram-negative bacteria, fungi and actinobacteria showed temporary difference.
