Seasonal Dynamics of Soil Fungal and Bacterial Communities in Cool-Temperate Montane Forests

Both fungal and bacterial communities in soils play key roles in driving forest ecosystem processes across multiple time scales, but how seasonal changes in environmental factors shape these microbial communities is not well understood. Here, we aimed to evaluate the importance of seasons, elevation...
