Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have accelerated microbial threats to human health in
the last decade. Many genes can confer resistance, but evaluating the relative health risks of …

Organic manure is widely applied in agricultural systems to improve soil nutrient cycling and
other physicochemical properties. However, the biotic and abiotic mechanisms that drive C …

Background Phosphorus (P) is one of the most essential macronutrients on the planet, and
microorganisms (including bacteria and archaea) play a key role in P cycling in all living …

Dissimilatory sulfate reduction (DSR) mediated by sulfate-reducing microorganisms (SRMs)
plays a pivotal role in global sulfur, carbon, oxygen, and iron cycles since at least 3.5 billion …

Background Mangrove ecosystems are considered as hot spots of biogeochemical cycling,
yet the diversity, function and coupling mechanism of microbially driven biogeochemical …

Deep reservoirs vary in their hydrostatic pressure owing to artificial water level control. The
potential migration of phosphorus (P) in reservoir sediments raises the risk of harmful algal …

Cobamides are required by most organisms but are only produced by specific prokaryotic
taxa. These commonly shared cofactors play significant roles in shaping the microbial …

Sulfur (S) is an essential biological element, and S cycling is mainly driven by metabolically
versatile microorganisms. The river–wetland–ocean (RWO) continuum here is defined as …

The rise of global temperature causes the degradation of the substantial reserves of carbon
(C) stored in tundra soils, in which microbial processes play critical roles. Viruses are known …

Introduction Soil salinization is a serious abiotic stress for grapevines. The rhizosphere
microbiota of plants can help counter the negative effects caused by salt stress, but the …
