The influence of forest management on fungal diversity and community composition has
been the subject of a wide number of studies over the last two decades. However, the …

Biochar-based fertilizer amendment can improve soil properties partly due to stimulated
microbial activities and growths. The karst ecosystem is prone to degradation and accounts …

High nitrogen (N) fertilizer inputs accelerate soil acidification and degradation in tea
plantations, thus posing a threat to soil microbial diversity, species composition, and …

Microbial elevational diversity patterns have been extensively studied, but their sha**
mechanisms remain to be explored. Here, we examined soil bacterial and fungal diversity …

Soil microbial communities are vital for maintaining functions of alpine wetland ecosystems,
which have been shown to be sensitive to climate change and anthropogenic disturbances …

Microorganisms mediate nutrient cycling in soils, and thus it is assumed that they largely
control responses of terrestrial ecosystems to anthropogenic nutrient inputs. Therefore, it is …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are keystone symbionts of agricultural soils but
agricultural intensification has negatively impacted AMF communities. Increasing crop …

Over the last two decades, a considerable effort has been made to decipher the
biogeography of soil microbial communities as a whole, from small to broad scales. In …

Crop harbors diverse microbial communities that profoundly influence host health and
agricultural productivity. Crop habitat is a dynamic and heterogeneous environment, and …

The diversity patterns and drivers of soil microbial communities in altitudinal gradients have
recently received much attention. The rhizosphere is a focus of soil microbial communities …
