Clostridium inhabiting pit mud (PM) is one of the important bacterial populations for
synthesizing flavor compounds of Chinese strong-flavor baijiu. The long-term cereal …

Flagellar motility is a key bacterial trait as it allows bacteria to navigate their immediate
surroundings. Not all bacteria are capable of flagellar motility, and the distribution of this trait …

Microbial necromass accrual via anabolism is an important process contributing to the
formation and accumulation of stable soil organic C (SOC). Both substrates and microbial …

Soil organic and inorganic carbon (SOC & SIC) and microbial community structure are key
indicators of soil quality and productivity in arid-saline soils. Salinity stress and diminishing …

There are significant environmental and health concerns associated with the current
inefficient plastic recycling process. This study presents the first integrated reference catalog …

Nutrient limitation has been shown to reduce bacterial genome size and influence
nucleotide composition; however, much of this work has been conducted in marine systems …

Mangrove ecosystems in the intertidal zone are continually affected by tidal inundation, but
the impact of tidal-driven nutrient inputs upon bacterial communities and carbon metabolic …

Atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition represents an important input of N into natural
ecosystems such as semiarid shrublands of Southern California, which can receive up to 45 …

Composition and traits of soil microbial communities that closely related to their ecological
functions received extensive attention in the context of climate changes. We investigated the …

Microbial immobilization of fertilizer nitrogen (N) can effectively reduce N losses in soil.
However, the effects of crop residue on microbial assimilation of fertilizer-N and the …
