Response of Fecal Bacteria and Fungi to Tannin‐Rich Diets in Sika Deer (Cervus nippon): Evidence from Both Feeding Experiments and Field Investigations

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Feeding with tannin‐rich diets altered the fecal microbial composition and increased the relative abundance of tannin‐degrading microbes. We hypothesize that fecal bacteria and fungi may play important roles in helping herbivores adapt to tannin‐rich diets but respond to different tannin concentrations varies.

Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological diversity in mountain ecosystems has been increasingly studied over the last decade. This is also the case for mountain soils, but no study to date has provided an overall synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Here we fill this gap with a first global analysis of published research on cryptogams, microorganisms, and fauna in ...

Secondary Decomposers Meet Their Predators: Decomposition Stage and Substrate Quality Jointly Structure Microbial Brown Food Webs During Fungal Necromass Decay

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mycelial residues, also known as fungal necromass, represent a substantial fraction of soil organic matter (SOM) pools in terrestrial ecosystems worldwide. Although microbial decomposers are increasingly recognised as key drivers of fungal necromass carbon stock formation, the diversity and composition of their microbial predators—and the ...

Microbial drivers of root plasticity

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Soils are highly heterogeneous and dynamic systems, experiencing a constant flow of plant root exudates and moisture fluctuations that affect nutrient distribution, soil physicochemical properties, and microbial metabolisms. Plant roots adjust their development within the soil matrix (growth, branching, root angle, and anatomical features) by ...

Synthetic Polyploidisation Enhances Fusarium graminearum Tolerance in Wheat by Reshaping the Transcriptome and Strengthening the Microbiome

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyploidisation is a natural evolutionary mechanism that enhances plant stress tolerance and environmental adaptability; however, its impact on microbiome homeostasis remains poorly understood. In this study, we selected a nascent euploid synthetic hexaploid wheat line (HG116; 2n = 6x = 42, BBAADD) by selfing a triploid F1 hybrid of Triticum ...

Trichoderma-Based Biostimulants Modulate Rhizosphere Microbial Populations and Improve N Uptake Efficiency, Yield, and Nutritional Quality of Leafy Vegetables

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Microbial inoculants such as Trichoderma-based products are receiving great interest among researchers and agricultural producers for their potential to improve crop productivity, nutritional quality as well as resistance to plant pathogens/pests and ...

Deciphering the Distribution Patterns of Pathogens Associated With Esca and Petri Diseases in Rootstock Mother Vines Potentiates the Development of Alternative Control Strategies in Grapevine Nurseries

open access: yesPlant Pathology, EarlyView.
Use of rootstock cane tip sections, and removal of rootstock mother vines heavily infected by Petri and esca disease‐related pathogens, could lead to the production of healthier grapevine propagation material. ABSTRACT The widespread emergence of Phaeomoniella chlamydospora and Phaeoacremonium minimum in grapevine nurseries over the past two decades ...

Biocontrol Potential of Trichoderma Ghanense and Trichoderma Citrinoviride toward Pythium aphanidermatum

open access: yesJournal of Fungi
Pythium-induced damping-off of cucumber is a major constraint to cucumber production in different parts of the world. Although chemical fungicides are used for managing this disease, they have many drawbacks to the environment. The ability of the antagonistic fungi isolated from the rhizosphere and endosphere of Dactyloctenium robecchii and Moraea ...
