摘要: IntroductionProtists play an important role in nutrient cycling, microbiome stability and soil fertility maintenance. However, the driving force of protistan functional groups remains poorly understood in agricultural ecosystems. MethodsWe investigated the impacts of fertilization regimes on the diversity, composition and functional groups of protists and further disentangled the effects of multiple factors shaping the community composition of functional groups in a 5-year fertilization regime (CK, no fertilization; M, organic fertilization; MNPK, combined inorganic and organic fertilization; NPK, inorganic fertilization). ResultsFertilization significantly changed the community composition of protists rather than diversity. The MNPK treatment significantly increased the relative abundance of phototrophs and decreased that of the parasites and consumers. Partial least squares path modeling indicated that fertilization indirectly regulated protistan consumers via changes in the P content, which affected the composition of consumers mainly by regulating fungal community composition. Soil moisture (SM) and available phosphorus (AP) were identified as the top predictors for the composition of parasites, and the composition of phototrophs was mainly affected by SM, indicating that parasites and phototrophs were more sensitive to abiotic factors in the fertilization system. DiscussionTaken together, our findings highlight that fertilization significantly affects the composition of functional groups of protists and their biotic or abiotic regulatory processes, which have implications for the potential changes in their ecosystem functions for soil management systems.
