ABSTRACT
Changes resulting from different tillage practices can affect the structure of microbial communities, thereby altering soil ecosystems and their functioning. The aim of this study was to explore and compare the physical, chemical properties and bacterial community composition of soils from different land use types (forest, grassland, vineyard, and arable field) in a small catchment. 16S rRNA gene-based amplicon sequencing was used to reveal the taxonomic diversity of summer and autumn soil samples taken from two different slope positions. The greater the anthropogenic impact was on the type of land use, the greater the change was in soil physical and chemical parameters. All sample types were dominated by the phyla Pseudomonadota, Acidobacteriota, Actinobacteriota, Bacteroidota and Verrucomicrobiota. Differences in the relative abundance of various bacterial taxa reflected the different land use types, the seasonality, and the topography. These diversity changes were consistent with the differences in soil properties.
