Functional Diversity and CO₂ Emission Characteristics of Soil Bacteria during the Succession of Halophyte Vegetation in the Yellow River Delta.

ABSTRACT: Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is the most important greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, which is mainly derived from microbial respiration in soil. Soil bacteria are an important part of the soil ecosystem and play an important role in the process of plant growth, mineralization, and decomposition of organic matter. In this paper, we discuss a laboratory incubation experiment that we conducted to investigate the CO₂ emissions and the underlying bacterial communities under the natural succession of halophyte vegetation in the Yellow River Delta by using high-throughput sequencing technology and PICRUSt functional prediction. The results showed that the bacterial abundance and diversity increased significantly along with the succession of halophyte vegetation. Metabolic function i
