The cave microbiota is assumed to be shaped by indoor microclimate, biotic and abiotic
factors, which are largely dependent from outside environmental conditions; however, this …

Microbial diversity of caves is largely understudied and its possible applications are still
unknown. Autochthonous fungi, in particular, may have the potential to biomineralize metals …

The land use change can negatively impact ecosystems, enriching water and soil with heavy
metals (HMs). The fragile riparian areas along the Medjerda River of Northern Algeria are …

Cave heritage is often threatened by tourism or even scientific activities, which can lead to
irreversible deterioration. We present a preventive conservation monitoring protocol to …

Subterranean karst caves are windows into the terrestrial subsurface to deconstruct the
dimensions of mycobiome fingerprints. However, impeded by the constraints of remote …

Tourism development influenced the ecological network of microbial communities.
Regulating mechanism of intra-and inter-domain networks was clarified. Macrophyte …
