N1  - The authors appreciate assistance in the field and laboratory by students of the Rainfed
Agricultural Experimental Station of Gansu Agricultural University.
N2  - Soil bacteria are key components of the soil microbial community contributing to soil
health. Nitrogen (N) fertilization is an important factor that affects soil microbial community and
cereal production. This study aims to explore the impact of long-term N fertilization on soil bacterial
diversity, nitrogen use efficiency (NUE), and the grain yield of wheat in the semiarid region of
Loess Plateau, China. The field experiment was conducted from 2003 to 2018 including five N
treatments: 0 (N0), 52.5 (N52.5), 105 (N105), 157.5 (N157.5), and 210 (N210) kg N ha
