The structure and function of the soil microbiome of urban greenspaces remain largely
undetermined. We conducted a global field survey in urban greenspaces and neighboring …

Nearly all ecosystems host diverse microbiomes that support vital ecosystem processes. At
the same time, these ecosystems and their microbiomes are increasingly altered by human …

Urban greenspaces provide extensive ecosystem services, including pollutant remediation,
water management, carbon maintenance, and nutrient cycling. However, while the urban …

Soil microbes play a key role in controlling ecosystem functions and providing ecosystem
services. Yet, microbial communities in urban green space soils remain poorly …

The vegetation and soil microbiome within urban green spaces is increasingly managed to
help conserve biodiversity and improve human health concurrently. However, the effects of …

While the contribution of biodiversity to supporting multiple ecosystem functions is well
established in natural ecosystems, the relationship of the above-and below-ground diversity …

Functional and biogeographical properties of soil microbial communities in urban
ecosystems are poorly understood despite their role in metabolic processes underlying …

Many noncommunicable diseases are linked to degraded diversity in the human and
environmental microbiota and are rising globally in epidemic proportions in industrialized …

Soil microbial communities are fundamental to maintaining key soil processes associated
with litter decomposition, nutrient cycling, and plant productivity and are thus integral to …

The soil microbiome comprises one of the most important and complex components of all
terrestrial ecosystems as it harbors millions of microbes including bacteria, fungi, archaea …
