PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY Field investigations and greenhouse experiments, based on multi-omics PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY approaches, reveal that elevated arsenic stress induces an enrichment of key PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY diazotrophs, enhances plant nitrogen acquisition, and thus improves plant PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY growth. Metabolomic analysis and microfluidic experiments further demonstrate PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY that the upregulation of specific root metabolites plays a crucial role in PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY recruiting key diazotrophic bacteria. These findings highlight the pivotal role PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY of nitrogen-acquisition mechanisms in the arsenic hyperaccumulation of Pteris PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY vittata, and provide valuable insights into the plant stress resistance.

RAW_FILE_NAME=rootG15.mzXML #COLLECTION CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY To collect rhizosphere metabolites, roots were gently shaken to remove loosely CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY adhering soil, followed by the careful collection of the closely adhering soil. CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY The collected rhizosphere soil was then freeze-dried and pulverized in a grinder CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY with glass beads (55 Hz, 2 min). Subsequently, 5 g of rhizospheric soil was CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY transferred into a sterile centrifuge tube containing 25 mL of a pre-cooled (4 CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY ℃) mixed solution of acetonitrile: methanol: H2O (2:2:1, v/v/v). The mixture CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY underwent two rounds of vortexing for 30 s each on a BE-96 Vortex mixer, coupled CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY with 30-min ultrasonication at 60 Hz on a KW-100TDV ultrasonic cleaner. CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY Following centrifugation at 10,000 × g for 10 min at 4 ℃ using a H1850-R CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY refrigerated centrifuge, the supernatant was filtered through a 0.2-μm sterile CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY membrane filter (Millipore, Bedford, USA) to isolate the rhizosphere CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY metabolites. The metabolites were then concentrated into a 2-mL centrifuge tube, CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY dried into a powder, and stored at -80 ℃. This procedure was also applied for CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY the collection of bulk soil metabolites. CO:SAMPLE_TYPE Root, Rhizosphere, Soil #TREATMENT TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY wild Pteris vittata plants with intact roots and rhizosphere soils and adjacent TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY bulk soils (0.3 meters from the root) were also collected from the field sites TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY with low-As (<1000 ppm, n=10) and high-As stress (>1000 ppm, n=15), TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY respectively, in Wenshan, Yunnan (22°54'02.6"N, 104°23'08.4"E). The in-situ TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY concentrations of heavy metals (metalloids) were evaluated using the Vanta™ TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY Handheld XRF Series (Tokyo, Japan). In the laboratory, the rhizospheric soils TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY and roots from Pteris vittata samples, alongside the collected bulk soils, were TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY processed for subsequent metagenomic and metabolomic analyses. #SAMPLEPREP SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY Equal amounts of preprocessed metabolome powder were re-dissolved by the precise SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY addition of 300 μL of an acetonitrile solution containing 4 ppm SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY 2-amino-3-(2-chlorophenyl)-propionic acid, prepared with 0.1% formic acid (1:9, SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY v/v; stored at 4 ℃). The supernatant was then filtered through 0.2-μm SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY membranes (Millipore, Bedford, USA) and transferred into vials for further SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY detection. #CHROMATOGRAPHY CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_TYPE Reversed phase CH:INSTRUMENT_NAME Thermo Vanquish CH:COLUMN_NAME Waters ACQUITY UPLC HSS T3 (100 x 2.1mm,1.8um) CH:SOLVENT_A 100% acetonitrile CH:SOLVENT_B 100% water; 5 mM ammonium formate CH:FLOW_GRADIENT 2:98 (A/B, v/v) at 0 min, 2:98 (A/B, v/v) at 1.0 min, 50:50 (A/B, v/v) at 9.0 CH:FLOW_GRADIENT min, 98:2 (A/B, v/v) at 12.0 min, 98:2 (A/B, v/v) at 13.5 min, 2:98 (A/B, v/v) CH:FLOW_GRADIENT at 14.0 min, 2:98 (A/B, v/v) at 17.0 min CH:FLOW_RATE 0.25 mL/min CH:COLUMN_TEMPERATURE 40 #ANALYSIS AN:ANALYSIS_TYPE MS #MS MS:INSTRUMENT_NAME Thermo Q Exactive HF-X Orbitrap MS:INSTRUMENT_TYPE Orbitrap MS:MS_TYPE ESI MS:ION_MODE POSITIVE MS:MS_COMMENTS In untargeted metabolomics analysis, the raw MS data were converted to mzXML MS:MS_COMMENTS format by MSConvert in ProteoWizard software package (v3.0) and processed by MS:MS_COMMENTS XCMS70 (v3.2) for peak picking and alignment.
