Summary
Introduction: Enhancing the planning of the forest-agricultural composite model and increasing the efficiency with which forest land is utilized could benefit from a thorough understanding of the impacts of intercropping between forests and agriculture on soil physicochemical properties and microbial communities. Methods: intercrop soils, along with their corresponding monocrops, were used in this study's llumina high-throughput sequencing analysis to determine the composition and diversity of soil bacterial and fungal communities. Results: The findings indicated that intercropping considerably raised the soil's total phosphorus content and significantly lowered the soil's carbon nitrogen ratio when compared to poplar single cropping. Furthermore, the total carbon and nitrogen content of s
