The α-proteobacteria could be further classified into three dominant families (relative abundance >1%) of Hyphomicrobiaceae, Rhodospirillaceae, and Sphingomonadaceae ( Figure S1 ), among which the relative abundances of the first two families (1.84~4.98% and 1.03~3.68%) showed increasing trends with the increase in reclamation years, and they all showed highly significant positive correlations with SOC, DOC, TN, AN, NO 3 − -N, and AP ( p < 0.01) ( Figure S2 ).
