Abstract Soil communities are intricately linked to ecosystem functioning, and a predictive understanding of how assemble in response environmental change is great ecological importance. Little known about the assembly processes governing abundant rare fungal across agro‐ecosystems, particularly with regard their adaptation. By considering taxa, we tested thresholds phylogenetic signals for preferences complex gradients reflect adaptation, explored factors influencing based on large‐scale soil survey agricultural fields eastern China. We found that taxa exhibited remarkably broader stronger compared taxa. Neutral played key role shaping subcommunity subcommunity. Null model analysis revealed was less clustered phylogenetically governed primarily by dispersal limitation, while homogeneous selection major process available sulfur factor mediating balance between stochastic deterministic both subcommunities, as indicated an increase stochasticity higher concentration. Based macroecological spatial scale datasets, our study potential adaptation identified distinct community fields. These results contribute mechanisms underlying generation maintenance diversity global change.

Abstract Background Freshwater salinization may result in significant changes of microbial community composition and diversity, with implications for ecosystem processes function. Earlier research has revealed the importance large shifts salinity on physiology ecology, whereas studies effects smaller or narrower microeukaryotic inland waters are scarce. Our aim was to unveil assembly mechanisms stability plankton networks at low salinity. Results Here, we analyzed a high-resolution time series data from an urban reservoir subtropical China over 13 consecutive months following one periodic change ranging 0 6.1‰. We found that (1) increase altered led decrease (2) influenced primarily by regulating deterministic-stochastic balance, deterministic becoming more important increased salinity, (3) core subnetwork robustness higher low-salinity levels, while satellite subnetworks had greater medium-/high-salinity levels. results suggest influence rather than successional time, is driving force shaping dynamics. Conclusions findings demonstrate salinities, even small increases sufficient exert selective pressure reduce diversity alter mechanism network stability. provide new insights into ecology impacts microbiotas architecture.

Summary The factors determining stochastic and deterministic processes that drive microbial community structure, specifically the balance of abundant rare bacterial taxa, remain underexplored. Here we examined biogeographic patterns taxa explored environmental influencing their assembly in agricultural fields across eastern China. More phylogenetic turnover correlating with spatial distance was observed than sub‐communities. Homogeneous selection main process for both sub‐communities; however, sub‐community more tightly clustered phylogenetically sensitive to dispersal limitations sub‐community. Rare rice maize were governed by processes, which showed higher operational taxonomic unit richness. We propose a conceptual paradigm wherein soil pH mean annual temperature mediate sub‐communities respectively. A leads For sub‐community, dominance stochasticity low‐temperature regions indicates weaker niche‐based exclusion arrival evolutionary lineages. These findings suggest are dependent on distinct variables agro‐ecosystems.

Belowground biodiversity supports multiple ecosystem functions and services that humans rely on. However, there is a dearth of studies exploring the determinants biodiversity-ecosystem function (BEF) relationships, particularly in intensely managed agricultural ecosystems. Here, we reported significant positive relationships between soil organism groups 228 fields, relating to crop yield, nutrient provisioning, element cycling, pathogen control. The were influenced by types organisms phylotypes with larger sizes or at higher trophic levels, for example, invertebrates protist predators, appeared exhibit weaker no BEF when compared those smaller lower archaea, bacteria, fungi, phototrophs. Particularly, highlighted role network complexity, reflected co-occurrence patterns among multitrophic-level organisms, enhancing link functions. Our results represent advance forecasting impacts belowground multitrophic on systems, suggest complexity should be considered key factor productivity sustainability under land-use intensification.
