N2-fixing nodules releases molecular hydrogen (H2) in the rhizosphere of legumes. The process activates H2-oxidizing bacteria (HOB) in soil, leading to multiple effects on biogeochemical processes and a potential biofertilization effect. The legacy effect of the energy potential of H2 on soil microbial community structure and the population density of HOB has received little attention. The aim of this study is to evaluate how the legacy effect of HOB, previously activated in soil microcosms exposed to elevated H2 concentration (eH2), affects biomass production yield of common vetch (Vicia sativa) and the abundance of HOB and the composition of microbiome in the rhizosphere. Contrasting soil displaying more than 60% difference in H2 oxidation activity were used as growth substrate for vetch. The abundance of HOB was indistinguishable between the treatments and two phylotypes, namely Aeromicrobium spp. and Ramlibacter spp., were favored by eH2 exposure at the activation stage. Their response was transient as no legacy effect was noticed after vetch growth. The root biomass and the root/shoot ratio were reduced in soil conditioned with eH2. These results provide new experimental evidence suggesting the biofertilization effect of H2 is not universal and requires specific conditions that remain yet to be identified.
