Abstract:

Diversity of the soil microbial community is an important factor affecting its stability against disturbance.
However, the impact of the decline in soil microbial diversity on the stability of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria
(AOB) and ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) is not known, particularly considering the repeated soil nutrient
disturbances occurring in modern agricultural systems. Here, we conducted a microcosm experiment and
modified the soil microbial diversity using the dilution-to-extinction approach to determine the stability and
population dynamics of AOB and AOA communities with repeated nitrogen (N) fertilizer application. Our results
demonstrated that the AOB community became more abundant and stable against repeated disturbances by N in
the treatments with the highest microbial diversity. In contrast, the abundance of AOA decreased following
repeated N fertilizer application, regardless of the microbial diversity. Notably, during the initial application
phase, AOA displayed a potential for increased abundance in treatments with high soil microbial diversity. These
findings highlight that the soil microbial diversity controls the stability of ammonia oxidizers during short-
