We analyzed 132 pol gene sequences to characterize the molecular epidemiology of HIV-1 subtypes A1, A6, and A7 (2001-2022). A1 accounted for 50.0% (66/132) of cases, increasing after 2014, with peaks in 2019 and 2022. A6 comprised 48.5% (64/132), dominating from 2005 to 2014 before stabilizing. A7 was rare (1.5%, 2/132), detected in 2003 and 2011. Transmission patterns varied: A1 was linked to men who have sex with men (MSM) (62.1%), while A6 was primarily heterosexual (HET) (82.8%) with a balanced gender distribution (56.3% male, 43.8% female). Resistance mutations were identified in 29.6% of cases, with A6 showing higher rates of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) (20.3%) and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) (7.8%) resistance than A1. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that 13 Bulgarian sequences (9.8%) were involved in transmission clusters, including 10 (7.6%) from sub-subtype A1 and 3 (2.3%) from sub-subtype A6, highlighting distinct genetic diversity and transmission patterns.

However, the relationship between C and N turnover in soil is still not fully understood. We performed a soil microcosm incubation experiment to study the effects of residue incorporation with different C-to-N ratios (C/N) (low, 31.8; high, 84.5) on the SOC distribution, diazotrophic bacterial composition, and N accumulation in different particle size fractions (PSFs) of three types of soil parent material with different native C/N ratios. Our results demonstrate that SOC is 1.34 to 2.50 times more easily retained and accumulated in clay compared to baseline levels at the early stage of soil development. The native C/N ratio markedly affects the microbial metabolic characteristics and the SOC accumulation processes. Specifically, low C/N residue enhanced SOC accumulation in high-native-C/N soil, while the high-C/N residue maximized SOC in low-native-C/N soil. These shifts regulated the composition of the diazotrophic bacterial community, increasing the nitrogenase coding gene (<i>nifH</i>) abundance 5.57- and 8.1-fold in low-C/N residue treatments and 6.6-fold in the high-C/N residue treatment, thereby promoting soil N accumulation.
