A long-term field experiment demonstrates the influence of tillage on the bacterial potential to produce soil structure-stabilizing agents such as exopolysaccharides and lipopolysaccharides

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiome, 2019
Background Stable soil aggregates are essential for optimal crop growth and preventing soil erosion. However, tillage is often used in agriculture to loosen the soil, which disrupts the integrity of these aggregates.

The Influence of Kerosene on Microbiomes of Diverse Soils [PDF]

open access: yesLife, 2022
One of the most important challenges for soil science is to determine the limits for the sustainable functioning of contaminated ecosystems. The response of soil microbiomes to kerosene pollution is still poorly understood. Here, we model the impact of kerosene leakage on the composition of the topsoil microbiome in pot and field experiments with ...

Disentangling soil microbiome functions by perturbation [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, 2021
Summary Soil biota contribute to diverse soil ecosystem services such as greenhouse gas mitigation, carbon sequestration, pollutant degradation, plant disease suppression and nutrient acquisition for plant growth. Here, we provide detailed insight into different perturbation approaches to disentangle soil microbiome functions and to ...

Communication between plant roots and the soil microbiome; involvement in plant growth and development

open access: yesSymbiosis, 2023
Root-associated microbial communities have strong influences on the health and development of plants. Through the secretion of root exudates, the soil microbiome is impacted by plants, thereby steering plant-soil reactions.

Domestication Impacts the Wheat-Associated Microbiota and the Rhizosphere Colonization by Seed- and Soil-Originated Microbiomes, Across Different Fields

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The seed-transmitted microorganisms and the microbiome of the soil in which the plant grows are major drivers of the rhizosphere microbiome, a crucial component of the plant holobiont.

Cover crop root exudates impact soil microbiome functional trajectories in agricultural soils

open access: yesMicrobiome
Cover cropping is an agricultural practice that uses secondary crops to support the growth of primary crops through various mechanisms including erosion control, weed suppression, nutrient management, and enhanced biodiversity.

Microbiome composition of disturbed soils from sandy-gravel mining complexes with different reclamation approaches [PDF]

open access: yesOne Ecosystem, 2022
Activities connected to mineral mining disrupt the soil layer and bring parent rock material to the surface. It leads to altering the environmental conditions and leaves behind vast areas of disturbed lands. Returning these lands to natural ecosystems is

Core phylotypes enhance the resistance of soil microbiome to environmental changes to maintain multifunctionality in agricultural ecosystems

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2022
Agricultural ecosystems are facing increasing environmental changes. Revealing ecological stability of belowground organisms is key to developing management strategies that maintain agricultural ecosystem services in a changing world.

Soil Nitrogen Treatment Alters Microbiome Networks Across Farm Niches

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Agriculture is fundamental for food production, and microbiomes support agriculture through multiple essential ecosystem services. Despite the importance of individual (i.e., niche specific) agricultural microbiomes, microbiome interactions across niches
