Resistance and resilience responses of a range of soil eukaryote and bacterial taxa to fungicide application [PDF]
The application of plant protection products has the potential to significantly affect soil microbial community structure and function. However, the extent to which soil microbial communities from different trophic levels exhibit resistance and ...

A meta-analysis of soil microbial biomass responses to forest disturbances
Climate warming is likely to increase the frequency and severity of forest disturbances, with uncertain consequences for soil microbial communities and their contribution to ecosystem C dynamics.

Soil microbial biomass and function are altered by 12 years of crop rotation [PDF]
Declines in plant diversity will likely reduce soil microbial biomass, alter microbial functions, and threaten the provisioning of soil ecosystem services.

Measuring soil microbial biomass using an automated procedure
Here we outline the development of the first automated procedure for measuring soil microbial biomass carbon (biomass C) by Fumigation–Extraction (FE) and on which this Citation Classic is based. The method (and its later variations) has been used widely

Effects of initial microbial biomass abundance on respiration during pine litter decomposition.
IMPORTANCE:Microbial biomass is one of the most common microbial parameters used in land carbon (C) cycle models, however, it is notoriously difficult to measure accurately.
