Soil extracellular enzyme activities correspond with abiotic factors more than fungal community composition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Soil extracellular enzymes are the proximal drivers of decomposition. However, the relative influence of climate, soil nutrients and edaphic factors compared to microbial community composition on extracellular enzyme activities (EEA) is poorly resolved ...

Carbon-to-nutrient stoichiometry shapes microbial carbon utilization and soil organic carbon storage in agricultural soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Den meisten Agrarökosystemen werden anthropogene Nährstoffe zugeführt, was einen wichtigen Einfluss auf die organische Bodensubstanz (SOM) und das Pflanzenwachstum in landwirtschaftlichen Böden hat.

Revealing microbial processes and nutrient limitation in soil through ecoenzymatic stoichiometry and glomalin-related soil proteins in a retreating glacier forefield [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The glacial retreat is observed and predicted to increase in intensity especially in high-elevation areas as a result of global warming, which leaves behind a primary succession along soil chronosequences.

Research characteristics and hotspots of the relationship between soil microorganisms and vegetation: A bibliometric analysis

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2022
Soil microorganisms are an important part of terrestrial ecosystems; they are influenced by and react to vegetation via changes in their physicochemical properties, thereby forming an interactive feedback system with vegetation.

Benthic algae stimulate leaf litter decomposition in detritus-based headwater streams: a case of aquatic priming effect? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In detritus-based ecosystems, autochthonous primary production contributes very little to the detritus pool. Yet primary producers may still influence the functioning of these ecosystems through complex interactions with decomposers and detritivores ...

Enhanced carbon acquisition and use efficiency alleviate microbial carbon relative to nitrogen limitation under soil acidification

open access: yesEcological Processes, 2021
Background Soil microbial communities cope with an imbalanced supply of resources by adjusting their element acquisition and utilization strategies.

Dependence of ombrotrophic peat nitrogen on phosphorus and climate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Nitrogen (N) is a key, possibly limiting, nutrient in ombrotrophic peat ecosystems, and enrichment by pollutant N in atmospheric deposition (Ndep, g m-2 a-1) is of concern with regard to peatland damage.

Simple measurements in a complex system: soil community responses to nitrogen amendment in a Pinus taeda forest

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2019., 2019
Abstract Microorganisms regulate the decomposition of soil organic matter and the flow of plant‐available nutrients. In a temperate pine forest in North Carolina, USA, where nitrogen (N) had been experimentally added for eight years, we combined DNA‐based measures of fungal and bacterial biomass and composition with measures of seven extracellular ...

Morphological optimization for access to dual oxidants in biofilms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A major theme driving research in biology is the relationship between form and function. In particular, a longstanding goal has been to understand how the evolution of multicellularity conferred fitness advantages.

Geochemistry of three contrasting British peatlands: Complex patterns of cation availability and implications for microbial metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
ISTO = present addressInternational audienceCation availability in peat may limit CH4 production and microbial activity and thereby impact on rates of organic matter accumulation and the chemical character of the peat.
