| Abstract: | Aims The relationships between plant species and soil microorganisms remain indeterminable in different ecosystems worldwide. In karst ecosystems, soil microbial (SM) community structure and their environmental driving factors are poorly explored, and the relationships between plant species and soil microorganisms are unclear. This study aimed to characterize the general patterns of SM community composition and biomass, and to explore the specific tree species and soil physiochemical properties highly related to SM community diversity and biomass in a karst forest. |
