    Abstract:
    Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum (Rs) is one of the most important diseases found in ginger; however, the disease resistance mechanisms dependent on root bacteria and exudates are unclear. In the present study, we analyzed the changes in the composition of rhizobacteria, endobacteria, and root exudates during the pathogenesis of bacterial wilt using high-throughput sequencing and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Rs caused bacterial wilt in ginger with an incidence of 50.00% and changed the bacterial community composition in both endosphere and rhizosphere. It significantly reduced bacterial α-diversity but increased the abundance of beneficial and stress-tolerant bacteria, such as Lysobacter, Ramlibacter, Pseudomonas, and Azospirillum. Moreover, the change in rhizobacterial composition induced the changes in endobacterial and root exudate compositions. Moreover, the upregulated exudates inhibited ginger bacterial wilt, with the initial disease index (77.50%) being reduced to 40.00%, suggesting that ginger secretes antibacterial compounds for defense against bacterial pathogens.
