Deep Soil Layers of Drought-Exposed Forests Harbor Poorly Known Bacterial and Fungal Communities
Soil microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi play important roles in the biogeochemical cycling of soil nutrients, because they act as decomposers or are mutualistic or antagonistic symbionts, thereby influencing plant growth and health. In the present study, we investigated the vertical distribut...
