      "excerpt": "We used a block design with five independent forest gaps as experimental blocks ... soil sampling was conducted across four distinct seasonal points ... Across four sampling seasons, this design yielded 60 composite soil samples (5 blocks × 3 habitat treatments × 4 seasons). ... co-occurrence networks summarize statistical associations, not verified biological interactions ... PICRUSt2 profiles were predicted from 16S rRNA gene data and therefore do not represent direct measurements of gene abundance, transcription, enzyme production, or process rates.",
