To investigate the community characteristics, survival status, and stability of Malus sieversii (Lebed.) Roem. forests in different habitats of Emin County of Xinjiang, the characteristic indexes including population regeneration potential, species diversity, soil fertility, forest productivity, and external disturbance of M. sieversii forests in ten representative habitats were studied, and the forest stability of each habitat was comprehensively evaluated by using the weighted membership function value method. The results show that the population regeneration potential of M. sieversii forests of Emin County of Xinjiang is favorable except for the upper northern slope, which is moderate. Among different habitats, there are no significant differences in species richness index of trees, shrubs, and herbs, and the Simpson index, Shannon-Wiener index, and Pielou index of trees and shrubs at the same slope position are generally higher on the southern slope than on the northern slope; the Simpson index of herbs on the northern slope ridge is significantly （P<0.05） lower than that in the other habitats, and except for the northern slope ridge and upper northern slope, the differences in Shannon-Wiener index and Pielou index among the other habitats are mostly non-significant. At the same slope position, the soil total nitrogen, total phosphorus, and organic matter contents, as well as the biomass of trees and herbs, are generally higher on the southern slope than on the northern slope, while the shrub biomass is generally higher on the northern slope than on the southern slope. The community stability ranking of each habitat from high to low is lower southern slope, valley on northern slope, valley on southern slope, middle southern slope, upper southern slope, lower northern slope, upper northern slope, southern slope ridge, northern slope ridge, and middle northern slope. The comprehensive research result indicates that in future management of M. sieversii forests, differentiated management should be implemented according to gradients, lower southern slope and valley on northern slope should be prioritized for protection, and human disturbance should be reduced; continuous attention should be paid to the valley on southern slope, and community structure should be improved through light regulation; middle northern slope, northern slope ridge, and southern slope ridge should be prioritized for restoration, with artificial replanting and soil-water improvement to promote population regeneration and enhance soil fertility; routine monitoring and management should be carried out in the other habitats.
