Microbial communities play important roles in soil health, contributing to processes such as
the turnover of organic matter and nutrient cycling. As soil edaphic properties such as …

Soils have been submitted to several contaminants that vary in concentration and
composition. Heavy metals can be widely spread and accumulated in those environments …

This study explores the toxic effect of TCE at different depths of sub-surface soil and
underpins microbial community-level suitable carbon (C)-sources that provided directionality …

Formation of mineral-organic associations is a key process in the global carbon cycle.
Recent concepts propose litter quality-controlled microbial assimilation and direct sorption …

This study investigated the differences in microbial community abundance, composition, and
diversity throughout the depth profiles in soils collected from corn and soybean fields in Iowa …

Microorganisms exist throughout the soil profile and those microorganisms living in deeper
soil horizons likely play key roles in regulating biogeochemical processes. However, the …

While most bacterial and archaeal taxa living in surface soils remain undescribed, this
problem is exacerbated in deeper soils, owing to the unique oligotrophic conditions found in …

Although it has been shown that the interaction of climate and time shape the dynamics of
soil organic matter (SOM) storage and preservation in soil, the role of soil microbial …

This study investigated the potential role of a nitrogen-fixing early-coloniser Alnus
Nepalensis D. Don (alder) in driving the changes in soil bacterial communities during …

Microbes interact with each other in response to various environmental changes in coastal
marine ecosystems. To explore how the macroenvironment (environmental filtering) and …
