Data for: Bedrock and climate jointly control the phosphorus status of subtropical forests along two elevational gradients

We set two elevational transects on contrasting bedrock types, i.e. slate and granite, in a subtropical forest. Ten and nine sampling sites were distributed in the slate and granite transects, respectively. We surveyed the plant community and calculated the above-ground biomass. Five replicate samples were collected in each site, which resulted in a total of 95 samples. We measured phosphorus concentration (P) in the mineral soil, soil microbial biomass, fine-root, litter, and bedrock. In the uploaded data, we present all data mentioned above.本研究于亚热带森林中，针对板岩（slate）与花岗岩（granite）两类差异化基岩类型，布设了两条海拔样带。其中板岩样带与花岗岩样带分别设置10个和9个采样样点。本研究调查了样带内的植物群落，并计算了地上生物量；每个采样样点采集5份重复样品，总计获得95份样品。此外，本研究测定了矿质土壤、土壤微生物生物量、细根、枯落物及基岩中的磷浓度（P）。本次上传的数据集包含上述全部提及的研究数据。
