- Intervention effect Maize and soybean intercropping increased the diversity of rare microbial taxa rather than abundant taxa.
- Association Richness and phylogenetic diversity of rare microbial taxa were higher than those of abundant taxa across all soil samples.
- Association Plant growth stages significantly altered the community composition of rare and abundant microbial taxa.
- Mechanism The assembly of rare and abundant microbial communities is mainly driven by deterministic processes.
- Association Changes in maize productivity were significantly associated with core species of bacterial Actinomycetales.
- Association Changes in maize productivity were significantly associated with core species of Rhodocyclaceae.
- Association Changes in maize productivity were significantly associated with core species of fungal Tausonia.
- Association Changes in maize productivity were significantly associated with core species of Curvularia.
- Association Changes in maize productivity were significantly associated with core species of eukaryotic Leptophyryidae.
- Association Changes in maize productivity were significantly associated with core species of eukaryotic Ochromonadaceae.
- Mechanism Network complexity of abundant fungi and eukaryotic communities had notable effects on maize productivity.
