Soil organic carbon (SOC), total nitrogen (TN), enzyme index (<em>SEI</em>) and microbial carbon source utilization (<em>MCSU</em>) were assessed in both bulk and rhizosphere area to quantify root-derived effects.

This study investigated soil MNC and microbial communities in Moso bamboo stands under on- and off-year management. Results showed that total MNC, bacterial necromass carbon (BNC), fungal necromass carbon (FNC), and the contribution of BNC to SOC were significantly higher in off-year managed soils than on-year managed soils. On average, total MNC and FNC comprised 41.69 % and 34.80 % of SOC in Moso bamboo forests, respectively. Additionally, off-year managed soils exhibited higher SOC and available nitrogen but lower pH, available phosphorus, and microbial community alpha diversity compared to on-year managed soils. Microbial groups associated with litter decomposition were significantly enriched in off-year managed soils, while those promoting plant growth were enriched in on-year managed soils. Partial least squares path modeling demonstrated that bacterial communities and SOC directly influenced BNC and FNC accumulation, respectively, with soil pH indirectly affecting MNC through these pathways.

Here, the effects of substituting 25 % and 50 % chemical nitrogen (N) fertilizers with pig manure and municipal sludge, respectively, on NECB were investigated by considering soil C inputs (net primary production (NPP) and organic fertilizers) and outputs (ecosystem respiration and harvesting) in a two-year field experiment with eight consecutive vegetable cultivation.

Meanwhile, soil pH was the most significant determinant of symbiotrophic fungal diversity in both root and soil habitats, as well as fungal biomass in soil habitat (<em>P</em> &lt; 0.01). Moreover, the interplay between tree growth and fungal guilds or taxa was intricately mediated by soil properties and enzymatic activities. Taken together, our results provide novel evidences that the augmentation of soil AP content and pH could potentially alter the structure of soil fungal guilds and increase fungal biomass, ultimately correlating with tree growth, thereby offering valuable insights into the sustainable management strategies for Chinese fir plantations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8099,"journal":{"name":"Applied Soil Ecology","volume":"211 ","pages":"Article 106149"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143885957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
