Bacterial wilt is accompanied by microbial communities shift and soil acidification. However, the relationship between the changes of bacterial communities and bacterial wilt under the influence of different acidification levels has not been fully elucidated. Here, we analyzed the abundance of Ralstonia solanacearum, rhizosphere bacterial communities and carbon metabolism at differently acidic levels (pH 6.45, pH 5.60, pH 5.35, pH 4.90 and pH 4.45) and soil amendment treatment (CaO). The results indicated that both the abundance of R. solanacearum and the incidence of bacterial wilt showed a significant trend of first increasing and then decreasing with the increase of soil pH. The Firmicutes phylum and potentially beneficial genera , , and Pseudomonas were significantly enriched at pH 6.45. The metabolic ability in response to the l-arginine and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid was significantly increased at pH 6.45. After using CaO to increase the pH of diseased soil from 5.45 to 6.05, the abundance of R. solanacearum and the incidence of bacterial wilt were significantly reduced, the Firmicutes and potentially beneficial genera and Pseudomonas were significantly enriched. Overall, alleviating soil acidification to a slightly acidic level (pH 6.0-6.5) could suppress bacterial wilt by suppressing the growth of R. solanacearum and enriching the rhizosphere potentially beneficial bacteria, and further emphasized the importance of increasing soil pH in biological control of bacterial wilt. The rhizosphere microbiota and soil acidification have been shown to have impacts on bacterial wilt. However, the influence of different acidification levels on the rhizosphere communities and bacterial wilt has not been fully studied. In this study, the potentially beneficial bacteria ( and Pseudomonas) were significantly enriched in the slightly acidic soil (pH 6.45), leading to the increase of the metabolism of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and the decrease of pathogenic R. solanacearum, thereby alleviating the occurrence of bacterial wilt. The changes of potentially beneficial bacteria and pathogenic R. solanacearum in strongly acidic soil (pH 5.35) with the highest incidence of bacterial wilt were just the opposite. These findings help clarify the mechanisms by which soil bacteria exert influence on bacterial wilt outbreak under different soil acidification levels.
