Genus-level composition (a, c) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) effect size analysis (b, d) of bacterial communities based on nitrification functional genes under different types of salt and alkali stresses in a calcareous desert soil. a Relative abundance (%) of genera in amoA-AOA communities, b LDA scores of dominant genera in amoA-AOA communities, c relative abundance (%) of genera in amoA-AOB communities, and d LDA scores of dominant taxa in amoA-AOB communities. CK, control treatment without salt or alkali stress; CS, NaCl stress treatment; SS, Na2SO4 stress treatment; AS, Na2CO3 + NaHCO3 stress treatment
