Abstract

Long-term fertilization experiments are a useful way to elucidate the impacts of fertilization on soil ecosystems. Here, we report the prokaryotic community structure in experimental field soil after 80 years of successive fertilization. Our 16S rRNA gene sequencing detected 20,996 amplicon sequence variants, including major phyla such as Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria, and Actinobacteria.

Highlights

  • Long-term fertilization experiments are a useful way to elucidate the impacts of fertilization on soil ecosystems

  • Extraction, amplicon library construction, and Illumina sequencing were conducted with three technical replicates for each soil sample

  • Each nonchimeric amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) was taxonomically annotated by RDP Classifier version 2.3 (6) trained with Greengenes 13_8 (7) clustered at 97% sequence identity, followed by the removal of organelle-like ASVs
