Soil bacterial communities associated with multi-nutrient cycling under long-term warming in the alpine meadow

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionThe functions of terrestrial ecosystems are mainly maintained by bacteria, as a key component of microorganisms, which actively participate in the nutrient cycling of ecosystems.

Nutrient Cycling in Aquaponics Systems [PDF]

Aquaponics Food Production Systems, 2019
AbstractIn aquaponics, nutrients originate mainly from the fish feed and water inputs in the system. A substantial part of the feed is ingested by the fish and either used for growth and metabolism or excreted as soluble and solid faeces, while the rest of any uneaten feed decays in the tanks.

Mesophilic and thermophilic viruses are associated with nutrient cycling during hyperthermophilic composting. [PDF]

ISME J, 2023
While decomposition of organic matter by bacteria plays a major role in nutrient cycling in terrestrial ecosystems, the significance of viruses remains poorly understood.

Heat stress destabilizes symbiotic nutrient cycling in corals

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Ocean warming is causing repeated mass coral bleaching, leading to catastrophic losses of coral reefs worldwide. Our ability to slow or revert this decline is hampered by an incomplete understanding of the processes underlying the breakdown ...

Association of biochar properties with changes in soil bacterial, fungal and fauna communities and nutrient cycling processes

Biochar, 2021
Soil microorganisms play crucial roles in soil nutrient cycling, carbon sequestration, fertility maintenance and crop health and production. To date, the responses of microorganisms, such as microbial activity, diversity, community structure and nutrient

Linking Bacterial-Fungal Relationships to Microbial Diversity and Soil Nutrient Cycling

mSystems, 2021
The relationships between soil biodiversity and ecosystem functions are an important yet poorly understood topic in microbial ecology. This study presents an exploratory effort to gain predictive understanding of the factors driving the relationships ...

Soil–Plant–Microbe Interactions Determine Soil Biological Fertility by Altering Rhizospheric Nutrient Cycling and Biocrust Formation

Sustainability, 2022
Understanding soil–plant–microbe inter- and intra- interactions are essential for ensuring proper soil health, quality, and soil-mediated ecosystem services (e.g., nutrient cycling) required for human–plant–animal life.

Microbial river-to-sea continuum: gradients in benthic and planktonic diversity, osmoregulation and nutrient cycling

Microbiome, 2021
Coastal aquatic ecosystems include chemically distinct, but highly interconnected environments. Across a freshwater-to-marine transect, aquatic communities are exposed to large variations in salinity and nutrient availability as tidal cycles create ...

Contributions of external nutrient loading and internal cycling to cyanobacterial bloom dynamics in Lake Taihu, China: Implications for nutrient management

Limnology and Oceanography, 2021
Harmful cyanobacterial blooms (CyanoHABs) are linked to increasing anthropogenic nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) inputs. However, CyanoHABs in many large lakes continue despite extensive abatement efforts, mostly focused on external P loading.

Biofilms for babies: introducing microbes and biofilms to preschool-aged children [PDF]

, 2017
Microbes are beneficial to life on our planet as they facilitate natural processes such as global nutrient cycling in our environment. This article details a 30-minute activity to introduce pre-school children ranging from 3 to 5 years of age to microbes
