Abstract

Most biodiversity measures indicate an ongoing deterioration due to intensifying anthropogenic pressures even though efforts are being intensified worldwide to conserve biodiversity. Knowledge of the implication of land use change on soil bacterial communities is essential for ecosystem restoration. Here, the effect of the conversion of native forests to temperate pine forests on soil bacterial diversity and community composition was investigated. The diversity and composition of the bacterial communities were affected by land use change across the sites.
