Transformative impact of three decades of nitrogen-based fertilization on diazotrophic communities and co-occurrence patterns in soils of Northeast China

ABSTRACT Biological nitrogen (N) fixation (BNF) is a crucial biogeochemical process on Earth, in which diazotrophs play a significant role. The impact of long-term nitrogen (N) input from fertilization on diazotroph responses remains unclear. In this study, we investigated diazotrophic abundance, di...
