Dichlorprop (2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy) propionic acid, DCPP), a commonly used herbicide for weed control, can be residually detected in soil. It is still unclear whether chiral DCPP exerts an enantioselective adverse effect on plant metabolism and the microbial community of the phyllosphere. In this study, we selected Arabidopsis thaliana as a model plant to explore the effects of R- and S-DCPP enantiomers on plant physiological activities, metabolism, and associated changes in the phyllosphere microbial community. Results indicated that the fresh weight of plants decreased by 37.6% after R-DCPP treatment, whereas it increased by 7.6% after S-DCPP treatment. The R-DCPP enantiomer also caused stronger disturbance to leaf morphology, mesophyll cell structure, and leaf metabolites compared with S-DCPP. GC–MS analysis of DCPP-treated Arabidopsis leaves pointed out a differential profile mostly in carbohydrates, organic acids, and fatty acids, between S-DCPP and R-DCPP treatments. The diversity of phyllospheric microorganisms decreased and the stability of microbial community in the phyllosphere increased after R-DCPP treatment, whereas the opposite result was detected after S-DCPP exposure. The correlation analysis revealed that chiral herbicides may affect microbial communities in the phyllosphere by influencing leaf metabolism, while sugars and terpenoids were considered the main factors in reshaping the microbial community structure in the phyllosphere. Our study provides a new perspective for evaluating the effect of residual DCPP enantiomers on plant physiology and corresponding phyllosphere microorganism changes via the regulation of leaf metabolism, and clarifies the ecological risk of DCPP enantiomer application in agriculture.
