摘要： BackgroundCrop rotation changes crop species and the associated management strategies, significantly influencing soil fertility and soil microbial communities. Interactions among the species in microbial communities are important for soil nutrient cycling. Yet, the contribution of soil microbial interactions to crop yield and soil nitrogen-cycle function under wheat-maize and wheat-soybean rotation conversion remains unclear. An 8-year field experiment was conducted to investigate the impact of simple [8-year wheat-maize rotation (8WM) and 8-year wheat-soybean rotation (8WS)] and diverse cropping systems [4-year wheat-soybean followed by 4-year wheat-maize rotation (4WS4WM) and 4-year wheat-maize followed by 4-year wheat-soybean rotation (4WM4WS)] on crop yield, soil properties, bacterial-fungal co-occurrence networks and nitrogen functional potentials. The abundances of genes with nitrogen fixation (nifH), nitrification (AOB and nxrA) and denitrification (narG, nirK, norB and nosZ) potentials were quantified and bacterial and fungal communities were characterized.Results4WS4WM led to higher succeeding maize yields and lower bacterial-fungal network complexity, nitrogen fixation potentials and denitrifying potentials than 8WM. Meanwhile, 4WM4WS exhibited higher succeeding wheat and soybean yields, network complexity and lower nitrifying potentials than 8WS. The ecological cluster with the most nitrifying and denitrifying bacterial species (Module#5) and that with the least species (Module#3) dominated the potentials of nitrogen fixation, nitrification and denitrification and succeeding maize yields in 4WS4WM and 8WM. Module#4 with the highest abundances of nitrifying bacteria (Nitrosomonadaceae) and Module#2 with the most species dominated the nitrifying potentials and succeeding wheat and soybean yields in 4WM4WS and 8WS. Soil water content, organic carbon, dissolved organic carbon, NO3- and pH were key drivers influencing Module#3 and Module#5, while only NH4+ significantly affected Module#2 and Module#4.ConclusionsThese findings demonstrate the importance of ecological clusters within soil microbial network in regulating crop yield and soil nitrogen cycling, and identify specific ecological clusters dominating nitrogen functional potentials in wheat-maize and wheat-soybean rotations, offering science-based recommendations for sustainable crop rotation practices.
