Tree diversity and functional leaf traits drive herbivore‐associated microbiomes in subtropical China

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Herbivorous insects acquire microorganisms from host plants or soil, but it remains unclear how the diversity and functional composition of host plants contribute to structuring herbivore microbiomes.

Effects of nitrogen and phosphorus imbalance input on rhizosphere and bulk soil bacterial community of Suaeda salsa in the Yellow River Delta

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionThe effects of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) addition on soil microbial diversity have been widely studied, however, the response of bacterial community to N and P imbalance input remains unclear.MethodsUsing a high-throughput Illumina ...

Moderate grazing increased alpine meadow soils bacterial abundance and diversity index on the Tibetan Plateau

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
The response of grassland soil bacterial community characteristics to different grazing intensities is central ecological topics. However, the underlying mechanisms between bacterial abundance, diversity index, and grazing intensity remain unclear.

Linking bacterial diversity to floral identity in the bumble bee pollen basket

Environmental DNA, 2021
Multitrophic interactions are ubiquitous in nature and form the basis of biodiversity. For example, bumble bees visit flowers to collect pollen, on which a variety of bacteria exist.

Multifunctionality and Diversity in Bacterial Biofilms

PLoS ONE, 2011
Bacteria are highly diverse and drive a bulk of ecosystem processes. Analysis of relationships between diversity and single specific ecosystem processes neglects the possibility that different species perform multiple functions at the same time. The degradation of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) followed by respiration is a key bacterial function that ...

Responses of Bacterial Communities in Soils under Winter Wheat to Nightly Warming and Nitrogen Addition

Agronomy, 2022
Understanding soil bacterial diversity under global warming is necessary because of its crucial role in soil nitrogen cycling. However, the interaction effect of warmer temperatures and nitrogen application on bacterial communities in the soils of winter

A PL1 family pectate lyase CP966_RS08110 gene was the pathogenic factor of Streptomyces galilaeus 5T-1 causing potato common scab

Frontiers in Microbiology
Pectate lyases (PL), as important polysaccharide lyases, play an important role in the infection of host plants by pathogenic. A previous study found that the PL gene CP966_RS08110 was up-regulated in the interaction between Streptomyces galilaeus 5T-1 ...

Influence of plant diversity and elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide levels on belowground bacterial diversity

BMC Microbiology, 2006
Background Changes in aboveground plant species diversity as well as variations of environmental conditions such as exposure of ecosystems to elevated concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide may lead to changes in metabolic activity, composition and
