Inorganic and organic amendments shape bacterial indicator communities that can in turn promote rice yield

The dynamic patterns of the belowground microbial communities, in combination with the related metabolic functions, when both exposed to various environmental disturbances is important for the understanding and the development of sustainable agricultural systems. In this study, a two-year field experiment with soils subjected to chemical fertilization (F), mushroom residues (MR), combined application of chemical fertilizers and mushroom residues (MRF), and no-fertilization (CK) was conducted to evaluate the effect of fertilization on the soil bacterial taxonomic and functional compositions as well as rice yield.
