Reducing the proportion of Pinus tabuliformis planted in mixed coniferous-broad forest stabilizes the microbiological community composition

This study showed that soil microbiological community composition was more stable in forests with a low percentage of <i>P. tabuliformis</i> planting and a rich forest canopy of tree species. The planting proportion of <i>P. tabuliformis</i> is an important factor influencing soil microbiological community composition, which provides a new theoretical basis for rational management of mixed coniferous and broadleaf forests in warm-temperate continental climate zones.
