Soil pH drives the distribution of soil bacterial communities along a short elevational gradient (IMAGE)
Caption
Vertical distribution patterns of soil bacterial communities along a small-scale elevational gradient on Zijin mountain. In this image, the first and second plots (A and B) showed the variations of community composition and their driving mechanisms. The third and fourth plots (C and D) displayed different microbial co-occurrence relationships, including network topology and keystone species. The evidence of community structure and co-occurring feature jointly support that soil bacterial communities are significantly distinct along a small elevational gradient.
