Among these, the relative abundances of Mucoromycota and Ascomycota were notably influenced by altitude: the former exhibited an increasing trend with rising altitude, while the latter showed a decreasing trend.
The size of the medicinal rhizomes showed a decreasing trend with increasing altitude, suggesting that high altitudes may inhibit the growth of medicinal parts.
