Although ice-free areas cover only about 0.1% of Antarctica and are characterized by harsh environmental conditions, these regions provide quite diverse conditions for the soil-forming process, having various physical geochemical properties, also assuring different living organisms. This study is aimed to determine existing soil microbial communities, their relationship with parameters influence anthropogenic activity in Larsemann Hills, Eastern Antarctica. The microbiome was investigated at...

The rhizosphere community represents an "ecological interface" between plant and soil, providing the with a number of advantages. Despite close connection mutual influence in this system, knowledge about diversity is still controversial. One most valuable factors uncertainty rough estimation diversity. NGS sequencing can make estimations more precise than classical geobotanical methods. We investigate fallow crop sites, which are similar terms environmental conditions soil legacy, yet at...

The collapse of collective farming in Russia after 1990 led to the abandonment 23% agricultural area. Microbial biomass is a transit pool between fresh and soil organic matter; therefore, structural changes microbial community determine carbon cycle processes caused by self-restoration arable lands abandonment. Here, we assessed influence monthly moisture temperature on bacterial structure abundance Retisols under long-term abandoned cropland. Two periods with pronounced differences...

High-throughput 16S rRNA sequencing was performed to compare the microbiomes inhabiting two contrasting soil types-sod-podzolic and chernozem-and corresponding culturome communities of potentially cellulolytic bacteria cultured on standard Hutchinson media. For each type, soil-specific microorganisms have been identified: for sod-podzolic soil-Acidothermus, Devosia, Phenylobacterium Tumebacillus, chernozem soil-Sphingomonas, Bacillus Blastococcus. The dynamics differences between types bulk...

Microbial biodiversity parameters for tropical rainforests remain poorly understood. Whilst the soil microbiome accounts up to 95% of total diversity microorganisms in terrestrial ecosystems, suspended soils formed by vascular epiphytes remains completely unexplored. Samples ground and were collected Cat Tien National Park, southern Vietnam. DNA extraction sequencing performed, libraries 16s rDNA gene sequences analyzed. Alpha indices highest forest soil. In general, microbiological all...

Restoration of anthropogenically disturbed soils is an urgent problem in modern ecology and soil biology. processes northern environments are especially important, due to the small amounts fertile land low levels natural succession. We analyzed microbiota, which one indicators succession process soil. Samples were obtained from three (self-overgrown reclaimed quarries), two undisturbed (primary secondary forests). Primary Forest had a well-developed profile, pH TOC (total organic carbon)...

Abstract Soil microbiome plays an important role in soil forming process as well functioning. This is especially relevant for initial stages of regeneration after strong anthropogenic impact (i.e., quarrying complexes). The study such areas crucial both understanding the forces driving formation and optimization reclamation techniques. aimed to investigate different ages on heaps limestone mines conditions boreal climate North-West Russia. analysis was performed using high-throughput...

Crop rotation is one of the oldest and most effective methods restoring soil fertility, which declines when same plant grown repeatedly. One reasons for a reduction in fertility accumulation pathogenic unfavorable microbiota. The modern crop schemes (a set species their order rotation) are highly but designed without considering microbiota dynamics. main goal this study was to perform short-term experiment with multiple combinations access microbiological effects rotation. It could be useful...
