Soil microbial communities in dry and moist tropical forests exhibit distinct shifts in community composition but not diversity with succession

Soil microbial communities in dry and moist tropical forests exhibit distinct shifts in community composition but not diversity with succession

ABSTRACT Soil microbial communities are integral to ecosystem function but our understanding of how they respond to secondary succession in fragmented landscapes is limited, particularly in tropical dry forests. We used DNA metabarcoding to evaluate successional changes in soil bacteria and fungi, c...
