China has abundant mineral resources reserves; However, the long-term consumption of these resources has led to environmental degradation. There are complex interrelationships between microorganisms and host plants, which can promote plant growth and enhance host plant tolerance to stress. Investigating the changes in microbial community structure in different mining areas, seasons, tree species, and sampling sites is essential to deepen our understanding of plant microbe environment interactions. The microbial diversity and community structure of four common tree species in mountainous areas of Shanxi Province were studied: Populus davidiana, Ulmus pumila, Fraxinus mandshurica and Betula platyphylla. Samples were taken in three regions, two seasons, and three locations.
