Mosses are non-vascular plants usually found in moist and shaded areas, with great
ecological importance in several ecosystems. This is especially true in northern latitudes …

Most mosses are colonized by nitrogen (N)‐fixing cyanobacteria. This discovery is relatively
recent, which can explain the large knowledge gaps the field is now tackling. For instance …

Moss‐associated cyanobacteria nitrogen (N2‐) fixation can contribute to support moss
growth and constitutes a major source of new N in boreal forest ecosystems. The biomass of …

Abstract Background and Aims Cyanobacteria associated with mosses represent a main
nitrogen (N) source in pristine, high-latitude and-altitude ecosystems due to their ability to fix …

Heavy metal remediation agents have been widely used in contaminated soils, but the
remediation effects on heavy metals in soil aggregates and the effects on the structure and …

Developing multi-functional, environmentally friendly biofertilizers can help reduce chemical
fertilizer usage. This study examined single and combined application effects of four plant …

Feather mosses are abundant cryptogams of the boreal forest floor and shelter a broad
diversity of bacteria who have important ecological functions (eg, decomposition, nutrient …

Abstract Moss-associated nitrogen (N2) fixation is one of the main inputs of new N in pristine
ecosystems that are characterized by low N availability. Previous studies have shown that …

Microbes affect the global carbon cycle that influences climate change and are in turn
influenced by environmental change. Here, we use data from a long‐term whole‐ecosystem …

Northern forests are characterized by low temperatures that play a key role in the whole
ecosystem functioning. However, Northern forests are expected to experience the largest …
