Change in soil microbial biomass along a rural-urban gradient in Varanasi (U.P., India)
Geology, Ecology, and Landscapes, 2018 Soil microbial biomass has been used as an early indicator of change in soil properties resulting from urbanization. We analyzed the effect of urbanization along a rural–urban gradient on soil microbial biomass and physico-chemical properties of the soil.

The changes in microbial biomass C and N in long-term field experiments
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2008 Microbial biomass nitrogen and carbon were studied in long-term field experiments with continuous cultivation of silage maize and with crop rotation. A positive effect of organic fertilizers on the microbial biomass nitrogen and the carbon content in ...

Microbial Biomass in Paddy Soil [PDF]
Soil Science and Plant Nutrition, 1985 The authors investigated the role of microorganisms in the paddy soil ecosystem and the influence of fertilizer and manure application on the soil “microbial biomass” in paddy soils using Jenkinson’s fumigation method. The results obtained are summarized as follows.

The Automated Root Exudate System (ARES): a method to apply solutes at regular intervals to soils in the field. [PDF]
, 2017 Root exudation is a key component of nutrient and carbon dynamics in terrestrial ecosystems. Exudation rates vary widely by plant species and environmental conditions, but our understanding of how root exudates affect soil functioning is incomplete, in ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting
