Summary

Shifts in rhizosphere soil microorganisms of dominant plants' response to climate change profoundly impact mountain soil ecosystem multifunctionality; relatively little is known about the relationship between them and how they depend on long-term environmental drivers. Here, we conducted analyses of rhizosphere microbial altitudinal pattern, community assembly, and co-occurrence network of 6 dominant plants in six typical vegetation zones ranging from 1350 to 2900 m (a.s.l.) in Helan Mountains by absolute quantitative sequencing technology, and finally related the microbiomes to root zone soil multifunctionality ('soil multifunctionality' hereafter), the environmental dependence of the relationship was explored. It was found that the altitudinal pattern of rhizosphere soil bacterial and fu
