Soil microbiome from a temperate-boreal forest ecotone warming experiment

16S and ITS rRNA amplicon sequences from Van Nuland et al. (2020) "Warming and disturbance alter soil microbiome diversity and function in a northern forest ecotone". The response to global change by soil microbes is set to affect important ecosystem processes. These impacts could be most immediate in transitional zones, such as the temperate-boreal forest ecotone, yet previous work in these forests has primarily focused on specific subsets of microbial taxa. Here, we examined how bacterial and fungal communities respond to simulated above- and belowground warming under realistic field conditions in closed and open canopy treatments in Minnesota, USA.
