- Intervention effect Intercropping significantly improved soil organic matter, available nutrients and redox enzyme activities, with effects declining with distance from the tea rhizosphere.
- Intervention effect Intercropping increased fresh tea leaf yield by 13.17% compared to monoculture.
- Intervention effect Intercropping increased dry tea leaf yield by 19.29% compared to monoculture.
- Intervention effect Intercropping decreased the disease index of new tea leaves by 40.63%.
- Intervention effect Intercropping strengthened bacterial network modularity and stochastic community assembly, contrasting with fungal patterns.
- Intervention effect Intercropping significantly regulated the importance of Proteobacteria across micro-topographical features.
- Intervention effect Intercropping significantly regulated the importance of Ascomycota across micro-topographical features.
- Observation Sinomonas was significantly enriched in tea plantation micro-topographical zones.
- Observation Arthrobacter was significantly enriched in tea plantation micro-topographical zones.
- Observation Ferruginibacter was significantly enriched in tea plantation micro-topographical zones.
- Observation Potential fungal pathogen Nigrospora was markedly suppressed.
- Observation Potential fungal pathogen Microdochium was markedly suppressed.
- Observation Potential fungal pathogen Periconia was markedly suppressed.
- Observation Nitrogen cycling functions were particularly enhanced in inter-row soils.
- Observation Carbon cycling functions were more prominent on the terrace surface and wall.
