Thinning intensities in Fagus orientalis Lipsky. stands may influence the soil properties, arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi symbiosis, and their interaction through quality enhancement. We aimed to investigate impact of four thinning intensities—control (no thinning); moderate (15%), moderately intense (35%), (55%)—implemented five years ago pure oriental beech forests. In this context, percentage indicates proportion trees removed by each intensity, based on total number before thinning. Our focus encompassed physical–chemical AM community composition, root colonization. At sites, organic carbon, nitrogen, available potassium, AMF spore density, colonization increased 209.7, 88.9, 115.8, 404.9, 448.5%, respectively, when compared control sites. This suggests a potential rise density colonization—a vital aspect for natural regeneration. These findings highlight importance considering management practices forest systems that can enhance system sustainable manner improve plant performance, fertility, symbiosis with fungi.
