Mechanistic approaches to investigate soil microbe‐mediated plant competition
Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 8, Page 1590-1597, August 2023., 2023 Our review highlights recent experimental advancements for uncovering microbial mechanisms that alter plant host resource competition and coexistence. We synthesize these mechanisms into a conceptual model that provides a framework for future experiments to investigate the importance of plant–microbe interactions in structuring plant populations and ...

Climate and Land-Use Changes Predicted to Jointly Drive Soil Fungal Diversity Losses in One-Third of North American Coniferous Forests. [PDF]
Glob Chang BiolThis study assessed the potential impacts of climate and land‐use change on soil fungal diversity across four North American biomes. We found that climate change typically caused both diversity losses and gains, particularly in coniferous forests and among arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, whereas land‐use change mainly reduced diversity, especially in ...

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The stoichiometric imbalance caused by nitrogen (N) deposition typically exacerbates phosphorus (P) limitation in plants. However, it remains unclear whether this effect extends to soil microbes, particularly those in the rhizosphere.

Gradient distributions of nitrogen and organic carbon in the soils from inland to tidal flat in the Yellow River Delta [PDF]
, 2014 黄河三角洲是我国典型的通过黄河冲积泥沙填海造陆形成的近代沉积区。区域受到黄河冲积、沉积等自然过程和农业耕种熟化等人类活动的双重影响。本研究通过在黄河三角洲地区内陆到河口海湾不同距离采集典型土壤类型剖面发生层样品，探讨土壤有机碳、总氮等生源要素的空间分布规律，为阐明我国典型海岸带地区陆源碳、氮的输送及循环特征提供基础依据。研究结果表明，黄河三角洲内陆与河口地区呈现出完全不同的土壤碳、氮分布规律。表层土壤碳、氮含量在黄河沿岸及三角洲南部均表现出由陆向海逐级递减的空间分布特征 ...

The Accommodation of Nitrogen to Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) Pollution in Avicennia marina [PDF]
, 2011 近年来，红树林湿地有机污染问题越来越突出，日益引起了人们的关注。根际是植物进行物质交换频繁的特殊微型生态区域，是有机物特别是持有性有机污染物进入红树植株内部的门户。根际微域复杂的微生物对植物的生长非常重要，并与有机污染物的吸收、转化和降解等生态化学行为及毒理效应密切相关。然而有关红树林湿地，营养元素对有机污染物毒害调节作用的研究鲜见报道，特别是对红树植物根际的微生物生态效应我们仍然所知甚少。 本研究通过自制根际套管，完全做到了根际研究器皿体积小，能避免施毒不匀、植物个体差异等实验干扰因素 ...

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 12, Page 3504-3516, December 2025.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Nitrogen (N) deposition strongly affects litter decomposition and nutrient release, thereby reshaping carbon cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. Although most studies have focused on above‐ground litter, the effects of N addition on fine root decomposition and their ...
