Soil contamination with total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) is widespread throughout the
globe due to the massive production of TPH anthropogenically and its occurrence in the soil …

Soil microbial communities directly affect soil functionality through their roles in the cycling of
soil nutrients and carbon storage. Microbial communities vary substantially in space and …

Grassland afforestation strongly influences the structure and function of soil microorganisms.
Yet the mechanisms of how afforestation could simultaneously alter both the soil fungal and …

Soil microbe is crucial to a healthy soil, therefore its diversities and abundances under
different conditions are still need fully understand. The aims of the study were to characterize …

High-throughput sequencing is commonly used to study soil microbial communities.
However, different primers targeting different 16S rRNA hypervariable regions often …

Drylands occupy approximately 41% of the Earth's terrestrial surface. Climate change and
land use practices are expected to affect biogeochemical cycling by the soil microbiome in …

In the last 100 years, climate warming has been affecting the European Alps faster and more
severely than globally observed temperature patterns. Temperature changes are known to …

Land use changes have been recognized as one of the key ecological drivers in regulation
of methane (CH 4) consumption from dry upland soils. This study investigated the impact of …

Soil microbial communities affect nutrient cycling and ecosystem functioning. However, the
variations in microbial diversity and community composition within degraded landscapes …

Arsenic (As) accumulation in plants is a global concern. Although the application of
arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) has been suggested as a potential solution to decrease …
