Tree species traits and mycorrhizal association shape soil microbial communities via litter quality and species mediated soil properties
Abstract
Bacterial and fungal cohesion was higher under AM than ECM tree species. Nematode cohesion was higher under ECM than AM tree species. Copiotrophic bacteria and saprotrophic fungi were abundant under AM trees. Oligotrophic bacteria, ECM fungi and fungivorous nematodes were linked to ECM trees. Litter quality and mycorrhizal type shape soil microbiota and nutrient economies.
