Soil bacterial community structure responses to precipitation reduction and forest management in forest ecosystems across Germany.

Soil microbial communities play an important role in forest ecosystem functioning, but how climate change will affect the community composition and consequently bacterial functions is poorly understood. We assessed the effects of reduced precipitation with the aim of simulating realistic future drou...
