Nitrogen (N) deposition and intensified rainfall can strongly affect soil microbial community, but compared with available studies on bacteria, those on soil fungi are quite limited. Here we carried out a field experiment in a mixed deciduous forest of China to study the influences of increased N deposition and rainfall on soil fungi by using quantitative PCR and high-throughput sequencing method. The results demonstrated that (1) N addition significantly increased fungal abundance and alpha diversity (richness, Shannon index and Invsimpson index), changed fungal community composition at OTU level, and marginally increased the relative abundance of Ascomycota and Zygomycota, while water addition showed no remarkable effects on fungal abundance, biodiversity and community composition. (2) N addition significantly increased the richness of saprotrophic fungi and pathogenic fungi, and the relative abundance of saprotrophic fungi, but water addition only slightly increased the abundance of pathogenic fungi. (3) Fungal composition dissimilarity closely correlated with the disparity of soil parameters as a whole. Soil NH₄⁺-N exhibited strong positive correlation with the richness of pathogenic fungi and mycorrhizal fungi, while both soil moisture and NH₄⁺-N tightly correlated with soil fungal abundance and alpha diversity indices. We concluded that in this N-limited but non-water-limited forest ecosystem, N deposition posed stronger effects on soil fungi than increased rainfall, partially mediated by changes in soil properties.
