Effects of fire intensity on soil microbial diversity and nitrogen cycling functional genes in forests (Northeast China)
The findings reveal the complex response of soil properties, microbial communities and nitrogen cycle genes to different fire intensities. These findings provide a scientific basis for effective post-fire ecosystem management and soil fertility restoration in the boreal forest.
