Soil nutrient availability drives the fungal community structure and function during the transformation of degraded eucalypt logging sites in southern China
Intensive Eucalyptus plantation management led to forest land nutrient imbalances, weakening ecosystem self-healing. Thus, the restoration of logging sites needs to be urgently addressed. Soil microorganisms, especially fungi, are crucial for nutrient cycling and ecosystem balance. Yet, how degraded logging site transformation patterns impact subsurface ecosystem components remains unknown. We studied the effects of four transformation patterns on soil physicochemicals and fungal communities in Eucalyptus logging sites and their correlations.
