Land use intensification in the humid tropics increased both alpha and beta diversity of soil bacteria [PDF]

, 2016
Anthropogenic pressures on tropical forests are rapidly intensifying, but our understanding of their implications for biological diversity is still very limited, especially with regard to soil biota, and in particular soil bacterial communities.

Pedogenesis of typical zonal soil drives belowground bacterial communities of arable land in the Northeast China Plain

Scientific Reports, 2023
Belowground bacterial communities play essential roles in maintaining ecosystem multifunction, while our understanding of how and why their distribution patterns and community compositions may change with the distinct pedogenetic conditions of different ...

Soil bacterial community responses to short-term grazing exclusion in a degraded alpine shrubland – grassland ecotone

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Grazing exclusion by fencing is a common and effective grassland management strategy for degraded grassland restoration. Soil bacteria, the most important decomposers of soil organic matter, is the linkage between plant and soil.

Meta-scale mountain grassland observatories uncover commonalities as well as specific interactions among plant and non-rhizosphere soil bacterial communities. [PDF]

, 2018
Interactions between plants and bacteria in the non-rhizosphere soil are rarely assessed, because they are less direct and easily masked by confounding environmental factors.

Effect of fungicide iprodione on soil bacterial community

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2004
The effect of the fungicide iprodione on soil bacterial communities was studied by treating two kinds of soils with different concentrations of iprodione. Degradation rates of iprodione in sterile and unsterile soils were also investigated. Residues of iprodione were measured by using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and a change of ...

Plant and soil microbe responses to light, warming and nitrogen addition in a temperate forest [PDF]

, 2018
1. Temperate forests across Europe and eastern North America have become denser since the 1950s due to less intensive forest management and global environmental changes such as nitrogen deposition and climate warming. Denser tree canopies result in lower

Soil Property and Plant Diversity Determine Bacterial Turnover and Network Interactions in a Typical Arid Inland River Basin, Northwest China

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Water sources from the lower reaches of the Heihe River northwest China, located in an arid area impacted by environmental stresses, have promoted changes to the local soil and plant conditions; however, our understanding of variations and drivers of ...

Topological data analysis of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and non-O157 survival in soils. [PDF]

, 2014
Shiga toxin-producing E. coli O157:H7 and non-O157 have been implicated in many foodborne illnesses caused by the consumption of contaminated fresh produce.

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...
