ABSTRACT Legumes have important functions in degraded ecosystems as they can mediate atmospheric nitrogen (N) inputs and increase soil N availability. However, it remains unclear whether legumes affect availability only through biological fixation or stimulating microbial transformations. In this study, nine native four non‐legumes were collected following a 9‐year natural vegetation restoration experiment karst rocky desertification area. Leaf N/phosphorus (P) ratios various pool compositions analyzed gross transformation rates determined by 15 tracing techniques. exhibited higher leaf δ values increased contents of total N, biomass inorganic compared to non‒legumes. Legume content N/P ratio (26.7 g kg ‒1 20.7) significantly exceeded those non‒legumes (14.2 14.5). Our results indicate that decreased plant limitation after 9 years succession, with effects varying between species related processes. Species low high organic mineralization ( M Norg ) ammonium oxidation nitrate O NH4 ), both which supply (especially nitrate). This effect was more pronounced rhizosphere than bulk soil. positively correlated p < 0.01) carbon, water holding capacity, calcium well N:P ratios, indicating improve quality supply, thereby alleviating limitation. highlight the importance cycling availability, is often limiting factor for ecosystems.

Afforestation is a widely used method of controlling desertification globally as it significantly impacts the soil quality, microbial community structure, and function. Investigating effects various artificial vegetation restoration models on communities crucial in understanding mechanisms involved combating desertification. However, research this topic arid, desertified regions limited. In study, we collected samples from two types forests (single species mixed species) bare desert soils areas Northwest China to explore impact afforestation nutrients, composition, network relationships, carbohydrate degradation abilities using metagenomic sequencing techniques. Our findings indicate that enhances moisture, total carbon, available phosphorus, nitrogen levels. The under mixed-species exhibited higher levels than single-species forests. Following afforestation, populations Pseudomonadota, Acidobacteriota, Cyanobacteria increased significantly, whereas Actinomycetota decreased markedly. forests, Pseudomonadota Bacillota were enriched, Chloroflexota, Planctomycetota, Acidobacteriota more prevalent plantations. increases complexity stability networks. metabolic activity, particularly increasing abundance carbon functional genes forest compared soils. Mixed-species plantations outperform enhancing metabolism, amino acid biodegradation metabolism xenobiotics. associated with starch, cellulose, hemicellulose, chitin, pectin was greater study shows effectively improves communities, bolsters cycle arid prone reciprocal relationship between microorganisms plants may serve an intrinsic mechanism by which controls

The ecological stoichiometric characteristics of soil elements have greatly enhanced our understanding the circulation nutrients. However, there is limited knowledge regarding alteration carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus ratios in deep after afforestation. To examine variations with different vegetation types, restoration times, depths, we collected samples from grassland,
