Fig. 6

Soil fungal community composition and alpha diversity during litter decomposition for three plant species under full sun (F) and shade (S) conditions. (A–D) Fungal community composition at the phylum level; (E–H) alpha diversity indices (Chao1 and Shannon). (A, E) Alhagi sparsifolia; (B, F) Karelinia caspia; (C, G) Populus euphratica; (D, H) CK. T1 represents sampling at 7 months of litter decomposition, and T2 represents sampling at 12 months of litter decomposition. CK represents soil samples from the blank control plots. Different lowercase letters indicate significant differences among treatments.
