The exposome depicts the total exposures in the lifetime of an organism. Human exposome
comprises exposures from environmental and humanistic sources. Biological, chemical, and …

The soil microbiota is vulnerable to burning; however, it shows some resilience. No indices
have yet been developed to assess fire damage related to soil biota. We evaluated the …

In the coming decades, Mediterranean forests are likely to experience higher heat-wave
frequency that may severely affect soil microbial functioning. Here, we studied the effects of …

Fire is a major disturbance linked to the evolutionary history and climate of Mediterranean
ecosystems, where the vegetation has evolved fire‐adaptive traits (eg, serotiny in pines). In …

We characterized the potential functioning and composition of the bacterial and fungal
communities in the O and A horizons of forest soils using community-level physiological …

Previously, the soil ecosystem acting as habitat and food resource for soil organisms and the
living soil and its wide variety of groups were introduced. This chapter will introduce the …

All growing plant roots have the ability to produce root exudates to which soil microbes are
attracted. The objective of this study was to utilise the Biolog EcoPlate™ system to indicate …

Soil microorganism play an important role in maintaining the structure and function in warm
temperate forest ecosystem. In order to explore the characteristics of soil microbial …
