Although elevated ground-level O3 has a species–specific impact on plant growth, the differences in soil biota responses to O3 pollution among rice cultivars are rarely reported. Using O3 Free-Air Concentration Enrichment, the responses of the rhizospheric bacterial communities in the O3-tolerant (YD6) and the O3-sensitive (IIY084) rice cultivars to O3 pollution and their differences were assessed by pyrosequencing at rice tillering and anthesis stages. Elevated ground-level O3 negatively influenced the bacterial community in cultivar YD6 at both rice growth stages by decreasing the bacterial phylogenetic diversities and response ratios. In contrast, in cultivar IIY084, the bacterial community responded positively at the rice tillering stage under O3 pollution. However, several keystone bacterial guilds were consistently negatively affected by O3 pollution in two rice cultivars. These findings indicate that continuously O3 pollution would negatively influence rice agroecosystem and the crop cultivar is important in determining the soil biota responses to elevated O3.
