While considerable attention has been paid to soil microbial diversity, the interactive dynamics between plant individuals and soil microbial pool during root-associated fungi establishment across environmental gradients remain poorly understood. In this study, we explored the elevational variation in the diversity of soil and root-associated fungal communities of\n                    <jats:italic>Quercus wutaishansea<\/jats:italic>\n                    across ten elevational belts (1020 m-1770 m above sea level (asl)) on Dongling Mountain, Beijing, China. We found that root-associated fungal communities exhibited significantly increased alpha diversity with elevation (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &amp;lt;\u00a00.05), whereas soil fungal communities showed no clear elevational trends (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &amp;gt; 0.05). Despite substantial variation in the soil fungal pool, the composition of root-associated fungal communities remained notably stable, suggesting a strong host filtering effect (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &amp;lt;\u00a00.05).
