Numerous parameters, intrinsic to plant physiology, life history and the soil itself, can influence the structure of rhizomicrobial communities. While our knowledge of rhizosphere microbial diversity is increasing, opinion is divided as to whether the factors that most impact this diversity are abiotic, climatic or plant selection. Here we focused on the rhizosphere bacterial diversity of nickel hyperaccumulator plants (28 species from Mediterranean or tropical climates). We showed, by leveraging 16S Illumina sequencing of 153 ultramafic rhizosphere soils, that bacterial genetic diversity was highest in Mediterranean habitats where plant diversity was the lowest. Concerning those parameters driving this diversity, we demonstrated that climate drives bacterial diversity, in particular with the annual temperature variation. Focusing on each region, we underlined the substantial role of soil physicochemical parameters. Our results highlight the importance of considering spatial scale when explaining bacterial community diversity.
