“…Increased grazing pressure at the grassy area between trees may thus result in an evident nutrient loss (Allington & Valone, 2014;Avendaño-Yáñez et al, 2018;Magliano et al, 2017). Nevertheless, we observed that trees influenced biological parameters (FDA, MBC, SR and CFU), as already reported by other authors (Carnovale et al, 2019;Grosso et al, 2018). This confirms that tree presence generates a soil microenvironment under the tree canopy (Chandregowda et al, 2018;Cubillos et al, 2016;Xu et al, 2017), where microbial communities regulate the sources for plant-available nutrients and facilitate soil processes that mineralize organic material.…”

“…Soil microorganisms are sensitive to environmental changes, and their composition and activity are influenced by a variety of factors including fertilizations, climate, and plant type ( Dong et al, 2014 ; Soman et al, 2017 ; Grosso et al, 2018 ; Hu et al, 2019 ). Nitrogen fertilizer is an important factor that affects soil microbial communities in many agricultural systems ( Wang L. et al, 2021 ; Zhang X. et al, 2021 ; Hu et al, 2022 ).…”

Malus sieversii grows on the slopes of the Tianshan Mountains in Xinjiang where the difference in daily temperature is significant. In recent years, the rhizosphere soil health of Malus sieversii has been severely impacted by anthropogenic disturbance and pathogenic infestation. The soil nutrient content and soil microorganism diversity are the main components of soil health. Low temperature has negative effects on soil bacterial community structure by inhibiting the accumulation of carbon and nitrogen. However, the effects of temperature and nitrogen application on soil carbon and nitrogen accumulation and the bacterial community composition in the rhizosphere soil of Malus sieversii are unclear. We set two temperature levels, i.e., low temperature (L) and room temperature (R), combined with no nitrogen (N0) and nitrogen application (N1) to explore the response of plant carbon and nitrogen uptake, rhizosphere soil carbon and nitrogen accumulation and bacterial community composition to temperature and nitrogen fertilization. At the same temperature level, plant 13C abundance (P-Atom13C), plant 15N absolute abundance (P-Con15N), soil 15N abundance (S-Atom15N) and soil urease, protease and glutaminase activities were significantly higher under nitrogen application compared with the no-nitrogen application treatment. The bacterial community diversity and richness indices of the apple rhizosphere soil in the N1 treatment were higher than those in the N0 treatment. The relative abundances of Actinobacteria, Rhodopseudomonas, and Bradyrhizobium were higher in the LN1 treatment than in the LN0 treatment. Redundancy analysis (RDA) showed that plant 13C absolute abundance (P-Con13C) and plant 15N absolute abundance (P-Con15N) were the main factors affecting the soil bacterial community composition. In summary, Nitrogen application can alleviate the effects of low temperature stress on the soil bacterial community and is of benefit for the uptakes of carbon and nitrogen in Malus sieversii plants.

“…Spain has 18.4 million hectares of forest and the most representative species in terms of surface cover is Q. ilex, which covers 2.8 million ha as oak grove (15.4% of the total area of Spanish forests), besides being the dominant species in 88% of "dehesas", accounting for a further 2 million ha (MAGRAMA, 2017). Grosso et al (2018) state that Holm oak forest at medium altitudes (800-1400 m) can replace beech forest in response to climate change. Fernández-Alonso et al (2018) based on different studies stated that on the Iberian Peninsula several species from the genus Quercus spp.…”
