Impacts of land-use and management histories of maize fields on the structure, composition, and metabolic potentials of microbial communities

Microbial diversity and functionality are impacted by land-use and management practices, with studies reporting reduced microbial activities due to anthropogenic activities. In this study, we analyzed and compared the composition, diversity, and metabolic profiles of microbial communities in maize r...
