Abstract

Autotrophic carbon-fixing microbes can assimilate atmospheric carbon dioxide into biomass via the Calvin-Benson-Bassham (CBB) cycle (their primary carbon fixation pathway), thereby reinforcing soil carbon sequestration in the plantation ecosystem; however, the succession of RubisCO-harboring microbial communities across stand ages remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated the community succ…
