Light structures phototroph, bacterial and fungal communities at the soil surface [PDF]

, 2013
The upper few millimeters of soil harbour photosynthetic microbial communities that are structurally distinct from those of underlying bulk soil due to the presence of light. Previous studies in arid zones have demonstrated functional importance of these

Denitrification: from genes to ecosystems [PDF]

, 2010
Denitrification is a part of the global nitrogen cycle in which fixed nitrogen in the biosphere is returned to the atmosphere, which is mediated by diverse communities of microorganisms. This thesis seeks to gain a greater understanding of the ecology of

Taxonomic dependency and spatial heterogeneity in assembly mechanisms of bacteria across complex coastal waters

Ecological Processes
Background Understanding community assembly mechanisms across taxa and space is fundamental for microbial ecology. However, the variability and determinants of assembly processes over taxa and space remain unclear.

Dispersal limitation determines the ecological processes that regulate the seasonal assembly of bacterial communities in a subtropical river

Frontiers in Microbiology
Bacteria play a crucial role in pollutant degradation, biogeochemical cycling, and energy flow within river ecosystems. However, the underlying mechanisms governing bacterial community assembly and their response to environmental factors at seasonal ...

Resolving environmental drivers of microbial community structure in Antarctic soils [PDF]

, 2009
Antarctic soils are extremely cold, dry, and oligotrophic, yet harbour surprisingly high bacterial diversity. The severity of environmental conditions has constrained the development of multi-trophic communities, and species richness and distribution is ...

Spartina alterniflora invasion significantly alters the assembly and structure of soil bacterial communities in the Yellow River Delta

Frontiers in Microbiology
Soil microbial communities are integral to almost all terrestrial biogeochemical cycles, which are essential to coastal wetland functioning. However, how soil bacterial community assembly, composition, and structure respond to native and non-native plant

Succession of Cyanobacterial Community Contributes to Bacterial and Fungal Community Assembly in Dryland Biocrusts

Ecology and Evolution
ABSTRACT Biological soil crusts (Biocrusts), which are widely distributed across arid and semi‐arid surfaces, play important ecological roles. Cyanobacteria are considered key intrinsic drivers of biocrust persistence and functioning, exerting a profound influence on their ecological roles.

Nitrogen and phosphorus addition affects community assembly and network structure of phyllosphere and rhizosphere microbiomes in the Inner Mongolia steppe

Ecological Processes
Background Elucidating how plant-associated microbiome structure responds to nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) addition is crucial for predicting the impacts of anthropogenic disturbances on ecosystem functioning under global climate change scenarios ...

Bacterial Interspecies Interactions and Microbial Community Assembly

, 2021
Microbial communities play central roles in the development and maintenance of human health and in the functioning of the Earth’s ecosystems. The microbial biodiversity of many environments has been thoroughly studied in recent years, yet the dominant processes shaping microbiota assembly remain unresolved.
