Higher tree species richness generally increases the storage of soil organic carbon (SOC).
However, less attention is paid to the influence of varied tree species composition on SOC …

Ecologists have long acknowledged the importance of seed banks; yet, despite the fact that
many plants rely on mycorrhizal fungi for survival and growth, the structure of …

We examined fungal communities associated with the PM 10 mass of Rehovot, Israel
outdoor air samples collected in the spring and fall seasons. Fungal communities were …

Recent high-throughput sequencing technology has led to an expansion of knowledge
regarding the microbial communities (microbiome) across various built environments (BEs) …

Microbial communities and soil organic carbon (SOC) fractions are sensitive indicators for
monitoring soil quality and crop yield. But the effects of fertilization on relationship between …

Many forest species are adapted to long-interval, high-severity fires, but the intervals
between severe fires are decreasing with changes in climate, land use, and biological …

Background The microbiome of the home is of great interest because of its possible impact
on health. Our goal was to identify some of the factors that determine the richness, evenness …

Long-term continuous soybean cropping can lead to the aggravation of soil fungal disease.
However, the manner in which the fungal community and functional groups of fungi are …

Soil fungi have essential roles in ecosystems, but the seasonal dynamics of soil fungal
communities in forests remain unclear. To explore the pattern and variation of soil fungal …

Dispersal is a fundamental community assembly process that maintains soil microbial
biodiversity across spatial and temporal scales, yet the impact of dispersal on ecosystem …
