Abstract: To study the gene abundance of carbohydrate ̄active enzymes (CAZymes) that degrade components from
different soil sources (plant and microorganisms) provides certain guidance for assessing the soil carbon storage potential
of plantation ecosystems for the response of forests after they are tranformed into broad ̄leaved or mixed coniferous ̄broad ̄
leaved plantations. In this studyꎬ metagenomic data of different soil depths (0-20 cmꎬ 20-40 cmꎬ 40-60 cm) of Pinus
massoniana forestꎬ Erythrophleum fordii forest and Pinus massoniana × Erythrophleum fordii mixed plantation in south
subtropical China were analyzedꎬ and combined with soil physicochemical propertiesꎬ the response of gene abundance of
CAZymes involved in degrading plant and microbial components to different stands and different soil depths was
investigated. Meanwhileꎬ the main regulatory factors were analyzed. The results were as follows: ( 1) After forest
conversionꎬ the gene abundance of CAZymes ( GH116ꎬ GH115ꎬ and AA5) that degraded plant components was
significantly increased and was strongly correlated with soil organic carbon (SOC)ꎬ C/ N ratioꎬ and microbial biomass
carbon (MBC) content. (2) The significant abundance of GH102 and GH25 genes in Pinus massoniana × Erythrophleum
fordii mixed plantations indicated that the ability to degrade microbial components in mixed coniferous ̄broad ̄leaved
plantations was stronger compared to the other two stands. The gene abundance of CAZymes that degraded plant and
microbial components in soils of the three stands generally decreased with increasing soil depthꎬ primarily due to the
significant positive effect of SOC content. (3) With the growth of the three stands to the later stageꎬ the contribution of
microbial ̄derived carbon to SOC may gradually exceed that of plant ̄derived carbonꎬ with bacterial ̄derived components
contributing the most. Overallꎬ the distribution of CAZymes genes is closely related to SOC content. Compared to pure
standsꎬ Pinus massoniana × Erythrophleum fordii mixed plantations show significant advantages in the gene abundance of
GH102 and GH25ꎬ potentially indicating higher carbon storage potential. The research results have certain guiding
significance for assessing the soil carbon storage pitential of plantations.
