Determinants of the Bacterial Diversity in Manipulated and Natural Soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Soils harbor highly diverse bacterial communities. It is still poorly understood whether functional redundancy or a multitude of ecological niche modify the abundance and community composition of bacteria in soil. Understanding why soil microorganisms are so diverse and which factors control their community composition is of importance because they are

Bacteria in heavy metal contaminated soil: diversity, tolerance and use in remediation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The objectives of this project were to determine the bacterial diversity in a heavily contaminated metal region of Portugal. Both traditional and molecular based methods were used to identify tolerant strains and species. The most tolerant species were

Mechanisms of soil acidification reducing bacterial diversity

open access: yesSoil Biology and Biochemistry, 2015
Abstract A central goal in soil microbial ecology research is to identify the biodiversity patterns and reveal the underlying mechanisms. Long-term soil acidification is known to reduce soil bacterial diversity, but the mechanisms responsible for this pattern have not been well explored.

Effects of biodegradable film mulching on bacterial diversity in soils [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Microbiology, 2021
Abstract The spread of biodegradable plastic film (BDFs) not only increase grain yield but also reduce the environmental pollution from plastic film to a large extent. Soil microbes have been considered to be involved in biodegradation processes.

The diversity and biogeography of soil bacterial communities [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2006
For centuries, biologists have studied patterns of plant and animal diversity at continental scales. Until recently, similar studies were impossible for microorganisms, arguably the most diverse and abundant group of organisms on Earth.

Micro-scale determinants of bacterial diversity in soil [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2013
Soil habitats contain vast numbers of microorganisms and harbor a large portion of the planet's biological diversity. Although high-throughput sequencing technologies continue to advance our appreciation of this remarkable phylogenetic and functional diversity, we still have only a rudimentary understanding of the forces that allow diverse microbial ...

Diversity rankings among bacterial lineages in soil [PDF]

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2008
Abstract We used rarefaction curve analysis and diversity ordering-based approaches to rank the 11 most frequently encountered bacterial lineages in soil according to diversity in 5 previously reported 16S rRNA gene clone libraries derived from agricultural, undisturbed tall grass prairie and forest soils (n=26,140, 28 328, 31 818, 13 ...

Effects of precipitation changes on soil bacterial community composition and diversity in the Junggar desert of Xinjiang, China [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Variation in precipitation can markedly affect the structure and function of soil microbial communities, especially in arid areas which are limited by water resources.

pH-Related Changes in Soil Bacterial Communities in the Sanjiang Plain, Northeast China

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Soil bacteria are crucial components of terrestrial ecosystems, playing an important role in soil biogeochemical cycles. Although bacterial community diversity and composition are regulated by many abiotic and biotic factors, how soil physiochemical ...
