Molecular ecological networks of fungal communities in original (a, c) and degraded (b, d) patches in the alpine meadows (c, d) and alpine swamp meadows (a, b) of Sanjiangyuan National Park.

Xin Chen et al. explores the changes in ecological components across #OriginalAndDegradedPatches of alpine meadows in #SanjiangyuanNationalPark and analyzed #SoilMicrobialCommunityStructure.

💡 #SoilMicrobialCommunityStructure of #AlpineMeadows
Place: #SanjiangyuanNationalPark
Results:
Meadows degradation ➡️
1️⃣ #VegetationSpeciesDiversity ⬆️ → aboveground productivity ⬇️ ⇒ soil deterioration;
2️⃣ oligotrophic bacteria ⬆️, dominant fungi ⬇️;
3️⃣ #MicrobialTaxaCompetition ⬆️
