Spatial distribution patterns across multiple microbial taxonomic groups

Spatial distribution patterns across multiple microbial taxonomic groups

Even in the vertical dimension, soil bacterial communities are spatially distributed in a distance-decay relationship (DDR). However, whether this pattern is universal among all soil microbial taxonomic groups, and how body size influences this distribution, remains elusive. Our study consisted of o...

Zusammenfassung:Even in the vertical dimension, soil bacterial communities are spatially distributed in a distance-decay relationship (DDR). However, whether this pattern is universal among all soil microbial taxonomic groups, and how body size influences this distribution, remains elusive. Our study consisted of obtaining 140 soil samples from two adjacent ecosystems in the Yellow River Delta (YRD), both nontidal and tidal, and measuring the DDR between topsoil and subsoil for bacteria, archaea, fungi and protists (rhizaria). Our results showed that the entire community generally fitted the DDR patterns (P
