Effects of Wildfire on Soil CO₂ Emission and Bacterial Community in Plantations.

ABSTRACT: In order to study the effects of wildfires on soil carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions and microbial communities in planted forests, Pinus massoniana Lamb. and Cunninghamia lanceolata (Lamb.) Hook. forests were selected as the research subjects. Through a culture test with 60 days of indoor constant temperature, the soil physical and chemical properties, organic carbon mineralization, organic carbon components, enzyme activity, and microbial community structure changes of the two plantations after fire were analyzed. The results showed that wildfires significantly reduced soil CO₂ emissions from the Pinus massoniana forests and Cunninghamia lanceolata forests by 270.67 mg·kg^-1 and 470.40 mg·kg^-1, respectively, with Cunni
