In recent years, there has been considerable progress in determining the soil properties that influence the structure of the soil microbiome. By contrast, the effects of microorganisms on their soil habitat have received less attention with most previous
Across all soils, functional beta diversity was strongly correlated with taxonomic and phylogenetic beta diversity; the desert microbial communities were clearly distinct from the nondesert communities regardless of the metric used. The desert communities had higher relative abundances of genes associated ...
new seasonal conditions. Also, as many bacteria and fungi produce resistant spores or dormant structures, the sea- sonal community shifts could be cyclic, allowing each community to regenerate as conditions shift back in their favor. Seasonal changes in microbial community compo- ...
Yet, the magnitude and direction to which ecological restoration affects the soil microbial composition and function remain unclear. Thus, this study was carried out to investigate the structural and functional alterations of soil bacterial community under different restoration patterns, including abandoned ...
The results of the current work indicate that urban development can alter the composition and diversity of the soil microbial community, and showed pH to be a key factor in the shaping of the composition of the soil bacterial community. Urban development did have a strong impact on the ...
However, a continental scale, cross biome approach assessing soil microbial communities and their functional potential to identify the unifying principles governing the susceptibility of soil biodiversity to land conversion is lacking. We conducted a meta-analysis from a dataset generated from 102 peer-...
trophic or r-strategist groups rapidly regain their abundance after a pulse disturbance has ended. We also propose that specific functional genes might be more informative than broad growth strategies for predicting the response of microbial community composition to specific climate change drivers, and...
The goal of this study was to identify changes in microbial community composition, diversity and functional processes resulting from mine land rehabilitation and compare to pre-disturbance levels from references sites covered by native canga vegetation. We sampled three study sites before rehabilitation ...
Embankments modified the compositions of soil bacterial and archaeal communities in both S. alterniflora and P. australis salt marshes. However, variations in the microbial diversity, richness, and community compositions between the native and embanked S. salsa salt marshes were insignificant. ...
