The soil microbiome as an indicator of ecosystem multifunctionality in European soils. [PDF]
The role of soil microorganisms in supporting multiple ecosystem functions (multifunctionality) remains poorly understood across diverse environmental conditions. Here, we investigate 484 soils from 27 European countries spanning a range of climatic and edaphic contexts. We assess the contribution of climate, soil properties, and soil microbiome traits

Soil-borne pathogens pose a major threat to food production worldwide, particularly under global change and with growing populations. Yet, we still know very little about how the soil microbiome regulates the abundance of soil pathogens and their impact ...

Specialized metabolic functions of keystone taxa sustain soil microbiome stability
Background The relationship between biodiversity and soil microbiome stability remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated the impacts of bacterial phylogenetic diversity on the functional traits and the stability of the soil microbiome. Communities

Enhancing soil microbiome resilience: the mitigating role of silicon against environmental stresses
The soil microbiome plays a pivotal role in the functioning and resilience of agricultural ecosystems, contributing to critical processes such as organic matter decomposition, nutrient cycling, and plant growth promotion.

Metallic micronutrients are associated with the structure and function of the soil microbiome
The relationship between metallic micronutrients and soil microorganisms, and thereby soil functioning, has been little explored. Here, we investigate the relationship between metallic micronutrients (Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Mo and Ni) and the abundance ...

Microbiome predators in changing soils
Abstract Microbiome predators shape the soil microbiome and thereby soil functions. However, this knowledge has been obtained from small‐scale observations in fundamental rather than applied settings and has focused on a few species under ambient conditions.

The soil microbiome of the Caatinga drylands in Brazil. [PDF]
Abstract Drylands represent a significant part of the Earth's surface and include essential and vulnerable ecosystems for the global ecological balance. The Caatinga, with its unique biodiversity adapted to the extreme conditions of this semi-arid region, offers a valuable opportunity to expand our knowledge about these ecosystems.

Global projections of the soil microbiome in the Anthropocene [PDF]
AbstractAimSoil microbes are essential for maintenance of life‐supporting ecosystem services, but projections of how these microbes will be affected by global change scenarios are lacking. Therefore, our aim was to provide projections of future soil microbial distribution using several scenarios of global change.LocationGlobal.Time period1950–2090 ...
