Elevated #StandDensity constrains #SoilOrganicCarbon (SOC) accumulation by reducing #LigninPhenol and #MicrobialNecromass carbon (C) content, and the negative effect of planting density on litter input reduced soil C content and #MicrobialCommunity.

Nitrogen deposition ➡️ #Home_fieldAdvantage (HFA) effect

Results:
1️⃣ N addition tended to weaken the HFA effect.
2️⃣ Soil acidification driven by N inputs indirectly reduces HFA through altering bacterial communities.
