Biogeographic distribution patterns of bacteria in typical Chinese forest soils [PDF]
Microbes are widely distributed in soils and play a very important role in nutrient cycling and ecosystem services. To understand the biogeographic distribution of forest soil bacteria, we collected 115 soil samples in typical forest ecosystems across ...

PCR biases distort bacterial and archaeal community structure in pyrosequencing datasets [PDF]
As 16S rRNA gene targeted massively parallel sequencing has become a common tool for microbial diversity investigations, numerous advances have been made to minimize the influence of sequencing and chimeric PCR artifacts through rigorous quality control ...

Warming alters elevation distributions of soil bacterial and fungal communities in alpine grasslands
It is still unknown whether climate warming can change the elevation distribution of soil microbial communities in alpine grasslands. Both species and phylogenetic β-diversity of soil bacterial and fungal communities were investigated at three alpine ...
