Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Rhizosphere archaeal community structure differed significantly from bulk soil.
- Observation Thaumarchaeota dominated all tested soils at 92.46-98.01%.
- Association Ammonium nitrogen, soil organic matter and available phosphorus were significantly correlated with archaeal community structure.
- Association pH was significantly correlated with archaeal community structure.
- Mechanism Deterministic processes dominated archaeal community assembly across soils.
- Observation Rhizosphere archaeal networks were less complex than bulk-soil networks.
- Observation Unclassified_k_norank was identified as the keystone species in all archaeal networks.
- Mechanism The authors concluded that alpine tree roots significantly affect archaeal structure, assembly and co-occurrence.
