Fomesafen, a widely adopted residual herbicide, is used throughout the soybean region of northern China for the spring planting. However, the ecological risks of using fomesafen in soil remain unknown. The aim of this work was to evaluate the impact of fomesafen on the microbial community structure of soil using laboratory and field experiments. Under laboratory conditions, the application of fomesafen at concentrations of 3.75 and 37.5 mg/kg decreased the basal respiration (RB) and microbial biomass carbon (MBC). In contrast, treatment with 375 mg/kg of fomesafen resulted in a significant decrease in the RB, MBC, abundance of both Gram+ and Gram− bacteria, and fungal biomass. Analysis of variance showed that the treatment accounted for most of the variance (38.3%) observed in the soil microbial communities. Furthermore, the field experiment showed that long-term fomesafen application in continuously cropped soybean fields affected the soil bacterial community composition by increasing the relative average abundance ofProteobacteriaandActinobacteriaspecies and decreasing the abundance ofVerrucomicrobiaspecies. In addition,AcidobacteriaandChloroflexispecies showed a pattern of activation-inhibition. Taken together, our results suggest that the application of fomesafen can affect the community structure of soil bacteria in the spring planting soybean region of northern China.
