Contrasting spring-fall microclimate and summer nutrient controls drive seasonal soil microbial biomass responses to nitrogen addition and grazing in a temperate meadow steppe

Frontiers in Environmental Science
IntroductionUnderstanding the season-dependent effects of land-use change and global change drivers on soil microbial biomass is critical for accurately estimating grassland carbon (C) sequestration, sustaining ecosystem services, and enhancing landscape

High Tree Species Diversity Promotes Thermal Enhancement Response of Microbial Carbon Use Efficiency

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Predicting soil carbon dynamics under warming is constrained by limited understanding of microbial thermal adaptation, particularly whether microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) can adapt to warming and how plant diversity modulates this response. Using soils from a natural tree species diversity gradient in a subtropical forest, we combined a

Dual‐Functional Silent‐Region SERS Nanoplatform for Real‐Time Bacterial Tracking and Wound Healing Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bacterial wound infections, particularly those caused by Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, are difficult to treat due to biofilm formation, multidrug resistance, and chronic inflammation. Here, we report a multifunctional nanoplatform based on a surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) probe that enables simultaneous photodynamic ...

A Comprehensive Microbial Gene Catalog of the Human Airway Microbiome Across Anatomical Sites and Geographic Regions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated Human Airway Microbiome Gene Catalog (iHAMGC) is constructed from 12,273 metagenomic airway samples, providing a high‐resolution reference of respiratory microbial genes. The catalog enables systematic exploration of taxonomic and functional variation across airway niches and geographic regions, revealing site‐specific and region ...

The Influence of Selected Meteorological Factors on Microbial Biomass and Mineralization of Two Organic Fertilizers

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2011
A mesocosm study was conducted in order to evaluate the effects of short-term rainfall and temperature variation on soil microbial biomass and bacteria to fungi ratio. In addition, the relation between the decomposition process of two organic fertilizers,

An Artificially Selected Cytokinin‐Pathway Transcription Factor Balances Soybean Yield and Pathogen Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A cytokinin pathway transcription factor, RR2b, was artificially selected during soybean domestication and improvement based on its differential transcriptional activity, which correlates with ATT repeat polymorphisms in its promoter. RR2b balances yield and defense by fine‐tuning its expression level and offers a promising target for decoupling trade ...

Straw return combined with water-saving irrigation increases microbial necromass accumulation by accelerating microbial growth-turnover in Mollisols of paddy fields

Geoderma
Soil microorganisms are key to the flow of carbon through soils. As the most carbon-rich soils, Mollisols are very sensitive to disturbance and more prone to be carbon sources than carbon sinks. To understand how the microbial physiology [i.e., microbial

Warming but Not Nitrogen Addition Alters the Linear Relationship Between Microbial Respiration and Biomass

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Soil contains a large amount of organic matter, which constitutes the largest terrestrial carbon pool. Heterotrophic or microbial respiration (Rh) that results from microbial decomposition of soil organic carbon (SOC) constitutes a substantial proportion

Disrupting Helicobacter pylori Iron Homeostasis With Bismuth Nanodrug‐Mediated Nutritional Trap for Targeted Gastric Infection Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A “nutritional trap” strategy centered on disrupting bacterial iron homeostasis is proposed. The synthesized Bi‐TP@FU (TBF) can target Helicobacter pylori, interfere with the bacterial iron uptake and utilization processes to disrupt its iron homeostasis, induce bacterial death, and meanwhile preserve the balance of the intestinal flora.
