description Increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations are impacting the global climate, resulting in significant interest in soil carbon sequestration as a mitigation strategy. While recognized that mineral-associated organic matter (MAOM) in soils is mainly formed through microbial activity, our understanding of microbial-derived MAOM formation processes remains limited due to the complexity of the soil environment. To gain insights into this issue, we incubated fresh soil samples for 45 days with one of three mineral additions: Sand, Kaolinite+Sand, or Illite+Sand. 16S rRNA V3/V4 gene amplicon sequencing was then conducted on samples using an Illumina NextSeq 2000 flow cell. The reads were analyzed and taxonomically assigned with QIIME2 v2023.5.1 and SILVA 138. The dataset has been made publicly available through NCBI GenBank under BioProject ID PRJNA1124235. This dataset is important and useful as it provides valuable insights into the interactions between soil minerals and microbial communities, which can inform strategies for enhancing soil carbon sequestration and mitigating climate change. Moreover, it serves as a crucial reference for future studies, offering a foundational understanding of microbial dynamics in soil systems and guiding further research in microbial ecology and carbon cycling.
