Previous studies have shown that forest floors from stands dominated by trembling aspen (ASPEN; Populus tremuloides Michx.) tend to support a greater microbial biomass with a different microbial community structure than forest floors from stands dominated by white spruce (SPRUCE; Picea glauca (Moench) Voss). A reciprocal transfer experiment, in concert with coarse and fine mesh bags that allowed or excluded fine root in-growth, was used to examine how the composition of these forest floor microbial communities respond to changes in belowground inputs from fine roots, aboveground inputs (e.g. from litter and through-fall) and soil microclimatic conditions over 1 year. Neither the microbial biomass nor the microbial...
