| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the soil microbial community at 40 forest sites in 22 regions across Japan. We aimed to clarify the geographic distribution of species composition and physiological traits of soil microbial communities, and their regulation on nitrogen cycling. We also aimed to develop the information base on soil microbial communities of Japanese forests. The results showed that the geographic distribution of species composition of soil microbial communities can be largely explained by the physiological traits of microbial species, and that the species composition is directly reflected in the rate of nitrogen cycling in forests.
