Figure Lengend Snippet: Species α ‐diversity of EPF at different altitudes. Boxplots of various colors represent different vegetation belts: (A) broad‐leaved forests, (B) mixed coniferous and broad‐leaved forests, (C) coniferous forests, (D) Erman's birch forests, and (E) alpine tundra. The Kruskal–Wallis H ‐test indicated significant differences at p < 0.05. Post hoc analysis using Dunn's pairwise comparisons identified significant differences as follows: * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, and *** p < 0.001.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Soil fungal community structure across different vegetation belts. The genus level indicates the genus structure of the EPF community, and the species level indicates the species structure of the EPF community. Vegetation belts are represented by different colors: A‐red (broad‐leaved forests), B‐cyan (mixed coniferous and broad‐leaved forests), C‐green (coniferous forests), D‐blue (Erman's birch forests), and E‐orange (alpine tundra). The R 2 values indicate the model fit. Significant differences in EPF groupings across vegetation belts were observed ( p < 0.001).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Species composition and distribution of EPF in different vegetation belts. Colors represent different vegetation belts: (A) broad‐leaved forests, (B) mixed coniferous and broad‐leaved forests, (C) coniferous forests, (D) Erman's birch forests, and (E) alpine tundra. The numbers in the ellipses indicate the number of exclusive and shared species in the different vegetation belts, illustrating species composition.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Dominant species and evolutionary trends of EPF in vegetation belts. Concentric circles (inner to outer) represent taxonomic levels from phylum to species, with circle size proportional to abundance. Colors depict species variation across vegetation belts: Gray (no difference), red (broad‐leaved forests), blue (mixed coniferous and broad‐leaved forests), green (coniferous forests), and purple (alpine tundra). Letters denote species differing by vegetation belts, labeled on the right. Distribution histograms highlight species with LDA scores > 2. Bar colors correspond to vegetation belts, and bar lengths indicate the LDA scores, representing the degree of responsibility for significant differentiation.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Effects of soil environmental factors and shrub communities on EPF structure across vegetation belts. The lower‐left graph shows correlations between soil physicochemical properties and vegetation belts, and the upper‐right graph shows correlations between shrub taxa. Pearson's r test was used to assess correlations, with red indicating positive correlations, blue indicating negative correlations, and significance levels represented as * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, and *** p < 0.001. The correlation strength between entomopathogenic fungal communities and soil physicochemical properties or shrub species in vegetation belts (A: Broad‐leaved forests; B: Mixed coniferous and broad‐leaved forests; C: Coniferous forests; D: Erman's birch forests; and E: Alpine tundra) is shown by black connecting lines. Thick lines represent moderate correlations (Mantel's R = 0.4–0.6), and thin lines indicate weaker correlations ( R < 0.4), with all correlations significant at p < 0.05.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Intergroup distribution differences in EPF across vegetation belts. The clustering tree (right) uses branch colors to indicate EPF genera. The stacked bar chart (left) displays the relative abundance of EPF species across vegetation belts: (A) broad‐leaved forests, (B) mixed coniferous and broad‐leaved forests, (C) coniferous forests, (D) Erman's birch forests, and (E) alpine tundra. Differences in EPF abundance between vegetation belts were evaluated using the Kruskal‐Wallis H test. Species with significant differences ( p < 0.05) are marked with red numbers.
