Soil bacterial and fungal diversity at the phylum and genus levels, according to amplicon sequencing

(A) Bacterial phyla, (B) fungal phyla, (C) bacterial genera, (D) fungal genera. LAV, Val Lavirun; VRS, Villum Research Station

BSC = biological soil crust; aL = active-layer soils. pF = permafrost soils. A = A horizon enriched with organic matter and thus darker than the underlying B horizon. B = B horizon. Bc = transitional layer with characteristics of both B and C horizons, with B horizon characteristics dominant; partly affected by cryoturbation, as manifested by a disrupted and broken horizon
