This study investigated the effect of salinity degree on bacterial abundance in irrigated meadow-takyr soils of the Ziyorat massiv, Karakul district, Bukhara region. Non-saline, slightly saline, moderately saline, and strongly saline soils were examined at depths of 0–25, 25–50, and 50–80 cm during spring, summer, and autumn. The results showed a consistent decline in bacterial abundance with increasing soil salinity and depth.
