Differential responses of bulk soil, rhizosphere, and root endosphere microbial communities to aridity: a case study of Lespedeza davurica

Soil and root-associated microorganisms are fundamental drivers of plant nutrition and environmental adaptation. However, along aridity gradients, the response patterns and regulatory mechanisms of microbial assemblages across bulk soil, rhizosphere soil, and root endosphere remain largely unclear. In this study, we...
