The bacterial sequencing under different photovoltaic installation modes in Shilin, Yunnan.

Although some studies have explored the impact of photovoltaic (PV) arrays on soil environments, research on the specific effects and mechanisms of different PV array installation modes on soil bacterial communities remains insufficient. Existing literature mainly focuses on the influence of PV arrays on environmental factors such as soil temperature and humidity, but there has been limited in-depth investigation into how these environmental changes affect the composition, function, and diversity of soil bacterial communities. Furthermore, the potential impact of different PV array installation methods (e.g., array spacing, tilt angle, etc.) on soil bacterial communities has not been adequately addressed. Therefore, systematically studying the relationship between PV array installation modes and soil bacterial communities is of significant reference value and practical importance for understanding the impact of photovoltaic development on soil ecosystems.
