In macroecology, the concept of r‐and K‐strategy has been widely applied, yet, there have
been limited studies on microbial life‐history strategies in temperate grasslands using …

Soil microbial functional genes are linked with carbon (C) as well as nitrogen (N) cycling
processes, and their relative abundances are strongly affected by ecosystem managements …

Revegetation of degraded lands has a profound impact on the maintenance and stability of
ecosystem processes. However, the impacts of this land use change on functional diversity …

Restoration and management of natural ecosystems is a critical strategy in mitigating global
biodiversity loss. This is exemplified in the American Midwest by efforts aimed at reclaiming …

The overwhelming taxonomic diversity and metabolic complexity of microorganisms can be
simplified by a life-history classification; copiotrophs grow faster and rely on resource …

Bacteria and fungi are important mediators of biogeochemical processes and play essential
roles in the establishment of plant communities, which makes knowledge about their …

As important mediators of numerous ecological processes, soil microorganisms play
essential roles in the recovery of ecosystems after disturbance. Using next-generation …

Which processes drive the productivity benefits of biodiversity remain a critical, but
unanswered question in ecology. We tested whether the soil microbiome mediates the …

Restoring ecosystems has been a key strategy to combat land degradation and reverse
losses in biodiversity. Because interactions between communities above and below the …

Soil microbiota increase their fitness to local habitats by adjusting their life history strategies.
Yet, how such adjustments drive their ecological adaptations in xeric grasslands remains …
