[Soil Microbial Community Structure and Functional Diversity Character of Abandoned Farmland in Minqin Oasis]

To clarify the impact of the structure and function of soil microbial communities in the stage of abandoned farmland, three different stages of land abandoned in desert oasis areas were selected as the research objects. We used metagenomic sequencing technology to research soil microbial community structure and functional diversity characteristics of different stages of abandoned farmland. The results showed that there were significant differences in the relative abundance of the dominant phyla Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Gemmatimonadetes in the soil of the three stages of returning farmland. Compared with that in the early stage of abandoned farmland, the later stage of abandoned farmland restoration increased the gene proportion involved in Quorum sensing, porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolism, pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis, and styrene degradation, and there was a significant difference in relative abundance (P<0.05), which indicated that different stages of abandoned farmland had changed the functional potential of the nutrient cycle and energy metabolism in soil microbial communities. The RDA results showed that EC, AK, and TN had a significant impact on the functional composition of soil microbes, and soil EC had the greatest impact on microbial functional composition. The results showed that different stages of abandoned farmland had a significant impact on the soil microbial community structure and functional composition. In the ecological restoration of abandoned farmland in Minqin Oasis, the sensitivity of microbial community structure and functional composition to soil restoration at different stages should be considered using comprehensive relevant indicators.
