Abstract Background Cereal/legume intercropping can enhance crop productivity and improve soil health in dryland farming. However, little is known about biological under maize/peanut intercropping. The aim of this study was to assess based on nematode communities a system. Methods We conducted field experiment with different planting patterns, including monoculture maize (M), peanut (P), intercropped (IM, maize; IP, peanut) determine the influence health. measured physicochemical properties communities, employed exploratory factor analysis combined cumulative normal distribution curve scoring identify potential traits. Results gave highest plant parasitic abundance, trophic diversity index, evenness structure index. enrichment index least Shannon channel identified four traits, basic nutrients biodiversity, food web complexity, slow energy channel, fast mainly represented by ammonium nitrogen structural omnivore-predator fungivorous abundance microbial biomass carbon bacterivorous respectively. systems improved comprehensive score health, especially soil. Intercropping significantly oil traits representing complexity compared corresponding soils. Conclusions Our results indicate that indicators reflect Among those improvement biodiversity were main reasons for improving through
