Fungi play an important role in the accumulation and transformation of soil organic matter (SOM) and nutrient cycling. To investigate the relationship between the fungal community and soil organic carbon functional groups under gradient SOM contents in arable mollisols, arable mollisols with 2%-9% SOM content were collected in Northeast China. Solid-state C-NMR technology was used to explore the differences in the functional group structure of SOM, and ITS high-throughput sequencing was used to investigate the fungal community structure.
