Abstract: Greenhouse experiment was set at Yonfa experiment station, Hainan Academy of Agricultural Sciences, to study the effect of functional organic fertilizer on Chinese cabbage. It was shown that application of functional organic fertilizer could promote the growth of Chinses cabbage, and the effect was better for the functional organic fertilizer with higher content of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). After 20 d of transplantation, the height and leaf width of Chinese cabbage were increased by 30.5% and 24.9%, respectively, with application of functional organic fertilizer containing 2% PGPR compared to the control (CK). The yield, soluble sugar and vitamin C contents were also increased with application of functional organic fertilizer compared to CK and normal organic fertilzer, and the soil microbial community structure was improved.

Key words: functional organic fertilizer, Chinese cabbage, microbial community structure
