AbstractSoil microbiomes play key roles in plant productivity and nutrient cycling, and we need to understand whether and how they will withstand the effects of global climate change. We exposed in situ soil microbial communities to multiple rounds of heat, drought, or heat and drought treatments, and profiled microbial communities with 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing during and after these climatic changes. We then tested how domain and symbiotic lifestyle affected responses. Fungal community composition strongly shifted due to drought and its legacy. In contrast, bacterial community composition resisted change during the experiment, but still was affected by the legacy of drought. We identified fungal and bacterial taxa with differential abundance due to heat and drought and found that taxa affected during climate events are not necessarily the taxa affected in recovery periods, showing the complexity and importance of legacy effects. Additionally, we found evidence that symbiotic groups of microbes important to plant performance respond in diverse ways to climate treatments and their legacy, suggesting plants may be impacted by past climatic events like drought and warming, even if they do not experience the event themselves.
