Microbiome resilience of Amazonian forests: Agroforest divergence to bacteria and secondary forest succession convergence to fungi

Global Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 5, Page 1314-1327, March 2023., 2023
In Amazon, secondary succession is the natural process to recover the ecosystem after burning the forest. It begins with the recovery of plant biomass and the increased importance of fungal communities in the soil. Agroforestry is a proposed alternative to fire, attempting to mimic the forest with benefits such as increased biodiversity, soil fertility,
