Highlights

  • Biogeography is the study of the distribution of biodiversity over space and time [1]

  • Archaeal Abundance and Alpha, Beta Diversity The soil pH, Soil organic carbon (SOC) and Total N (TN) were significantly different among the sampling sites

  • SOC and TN varied with different site and ranged from 4.19 to 62.2 and 0.33 to 8.87, respectively (Table S2)

Summary

Introduction

Biogeography is the study of the distribution of biodiversity over space and time [1]. It has been shown that macroorganisms have obvious zonal distributions along gradients of water and energy [3]. While at a global range, archaea distribution were either mainly driven by salinity along a broad environmental gradient and habitat types [10], or precipitation gradient and vegetation cover [11]. There is insufficient information on soil Archaea from various locations and habitats, even though the diversity and composition of archaeal communities are thought to have a direct influence on a wide range of ecosystem processes [12,13,14,15]
