Effect of tree age on community diversity of the endophytic and rhizospheric bacteria in .

is one of important economic tree species for widespread cultivation in China, but little is known about the endophytic and rhizospheric bacteria especially how tree age affects their community diversity. The research assessed tree ages of 2, 4, 8, and 12 years, respectively, affect the community diversity of endophytic and rhizospheric bacteria in using high-throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Findings revealed that the diversity and abundance of rhizospheric bacteria were significantly higher than that of endophytic bacteria, and both endophytic and rhizospheric bacterial flora, especially the dominant bacteria, showed a certain degree of regular variations with the tree age increasing.

Spatial variations and pools of non-structural carbohydrates in young undergoing different fertilization regimes.

Despite the importance of non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) for growth and survival in woody plants, we know little about whole-tree NSC storage. Here, trees fertilized using different schedules, including water and fertilizer integration, hole application, and no fertilization, were used to measure the spatial variations of sugar, starch, and NSC concentrations in the leaf, branch, stem, bark, and root. By calculating the volume of whole-tree NSC pools and the contribution of distinct organs, we were also able to compare the storage under various fertilization regimes.

Soil microbial communities response to different fertilization regimes in young plantation.

Fertilization is a fundamental aspect of global forest management that enhances forest productivity and drastically affects soil microbial communities.
