Mangroves are among the world's most productive ecosystems and a part of the “blue
carbon” sink. They act as a connection between the terrestrial and marine ecosystems …

Mangroves stand out as one of the most diverse and biologically significant natural systems
in the world. Playing critical roles in maintaining the health and productivity of coastal …

Background Mangrove ecosystems are vulnerable due to the exotic Spartina alterniflora (S.
alterniflora) invasion in China. However, little is known about mangrove sediment microbial …

Coastal zones are among the world's most productive ecosystems. They store vast amounts
of organic carbon, as 'blue carbon'reservoirs, and impact global climate change. Archaeal …

Microbial communities commonly consist of a large number of rare taxa (RT) and few
abundant taxa (AT), and it is important to identify the differences of the community assembly …

Asgard is an archaeal superphylum that might hold the key to understand the origin of
eukaryotes, but its diversity and ecological roles remain poorly understood. Here, we …

The archaeal phylum Woesearchaeota, within the DPANN superphylum, includes
phylogenetically diverse microorganisms that inhabit various environments. Their biology is …

Introduction Conservation tillage is a widely used technique worldwide, but the effects of
conservation tillage on bacterial community structure are poorly understood. We explored …

Prokaryotic communities play key roles in biogeochemical transformation and cycling of
nutrients in the productive mangrove ecosystem. In this study, the vertical distribution of …

Archaea are a major part of Earth's life. They are believed to play important roles in nutrient
biogeochemical cycling in the mangrove. However, only a few studies on the archaeal …
