Introduction Altitude-induced variations in hydrothermal conditions and vegetation affect the carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) contents both soil microbial biomass. However, specific patterns of changes these nutrients their stoichiometry response to altitudinal remain unclear. Methods In this study, we analyzed biomass C:N:P across three layers (0–20, 20–40, 40–60 cm) subtropical mountain ecosystems on Daming Mountain, South China. Results Our results revealed that C content C:N ratio 0–20 cm layer initially increased then decreased with increasing altitude. Meanwhile, P decreased. Soil altitude all layers, whereas C:P N:P ratios exhibited opposite trends. For along gradient, growth was mainly restricted by P, limitation being more pronounced at mid-to-low altitudes. C, N, were positively correlated ratios, available N (AN), (AP), water (SWC), but negatively bulk density, pH temperature. contrast, stoichiometric or non-significant relationships factors. Notably, AN, AP, SWC dominant factors affecting stoichiometry. Discussion These findings contribute understanding nutrient responses environmental ecosystems.

Elucidating changes in the structure and function of plant communities along different elevation ranges will help researchers to analyze strategies use environments processes influencing niche differentiation. The aims this paper are reveal underlying mechanisms ecological governing development subtropical forest ecosystem communities. This analyzes vegetation Wuyi Mountains across following three ranges: low elevation, mid high spanning from 560 2150 m. Twenty twenty-three dominant tree shrub layer species, respectively, were identified based on their importance values, niches species associations further analyzed range. results showed interspecific between with strongest observed at mid-elevations. analysis width overlap that number pairs a higher degree decreased increasing suggesting resource varied elevations for both which may be related adaptive capacity plants environment strategies. These findings should contribute deeper understanding functioning structural framework Mountain.

The decline in primary natural forests worldwide has intensified research on the effects of forest transformation soil carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) cycles stocks. However, extent to which C, N, P stocks stoichiometry are affected by conversion remains unclear. Here, we examined nutrient storage capacity stoichiometric characteristics native broadleaf (BFs), plantation (PFs), tea gardens (TGs), cultivated lands (CLs), urban artificial green spaces (GSs) at a county scale subtropical China. results showed that other types exhibited significantly reduced C N contents but increased content stock compared BFs. C:N:P ratios for BFs converted PFs, TGs, GSs, CLs were sequentially decreased as follows: 444.8:24.2:1, 95.0:10.0:1, 30.2:3.9:1, 23.1:3.7:1, 19.4:1.9:1, respectively. Within altitude (AL) span 180 1200 m surveyed, AL decided type influenced levels P. this study highlight importance ecological management TGs optimization production CLs, GSs.
