Belowground biodiversity supports multiple ecosystem functions and services that humans rely on. However, there is a dearth of studies exploring the determinants biodiversity-ecosystem function (BEF) relationships, particularly in intensely managed agricultural ecosystems. Here, we reported significant positive relationships between soil organism groups 228 fields, relating to crop yield, nutrient provisioning, element cycling, pathogen control. The were influenced by types organisms...

Abstract Background Plant health and growth are negatively affected by pathogen invasion; however, plants can dynamically modulate their rhizosphere microbiome adapt to such biotic stresses. Although plant-recruited protective microbes be assembled into synthetic communities for application in the control of plant disease, microbial commonly contain some taxa at low abundance. The roles low-abundance remain unclear; it is also unclear whether all enriched enhance host adaptation environment....

The relative functional importance of rare and abundant species in driving relationships between biodiversity ecosystem functions (BEF) remains unknown. Here, we investigated the roles diversity (multitrophic soil organism groups) on multifunctionality derived from 16 228 agricultural fields relating to crop health. results revealed that species, rather than was positively related multifunctionality. Abundant taxa tended maintain a larger number taxa, while subcommunity contributed more...

Abstract As a global problem, environmental pollution is an important factor to shape the microbial communities. The elucidation of succession communities in response pollutants essential for developing bioremediation procedures. In present study, ten batches soil-enrichment subcultures were subjected four treatments: phenanthrene, n-octadecane, phenanthrene + or n-octadecane CdCl 2 . Forty pollutant-degrading consortia, corresponding each batch treatments obtained. High-throughput...

Revealing the ecological roles of core microbiota in maintenance functional stability soil microbiomes is crucial for sustainable ecosystem functioning; however, there a dearth whole-soil profile studies on fundamental topic microbial ecology, especially context restoration. Here, we explored whether influence temporal changes throughout (i.e., depths 0-300 cm) during natural succession restored ex-arable ecosystems, via high-throughput amplicon and metagenomic sequencing. We revealed that...

Seed-associated microorganisms play crucial roles in maintaining plant health by providing nutrients and resistance to biotic abiotic stresses. However, their functions seed germination disease remain poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the microbial community assembly features functional profiles of spermosphere endosphere microbiomes related germinated ungerminated seeds Astragalus mongholicus using amplicon shotgun metagenome sequencing techniques. Additionally, aimed...

Elucidating the mechanisms underlying microbial succession is a major goal of ecology research. Given increasing human pressure on environment and natural resources, responses to repeated introduction organic inorganic pollutants are particular interest. To investigate temporal dynamics communities in response pollutants, we analysed community structure batch microcosms that were inoculated with soil bacteria following exposure individual or combined (phenanthrene, n-octadecane, phenanthrene...

Abstract Aim Fresh carbon (C) inputs to the soil can have important consequences for decomposition rates of organic matter (priming effect), thereby impacting delicate global C balance at soil–atmosphere interface. Yet, environmental factors that control priming effect intensity remain poorly understood a scale. Location Global. Time period 1980–2020. Major taxa studied Soil intensity. Methods We conducted dataset CO 2 effluxes in 711 pairwise soils with 13 or 14 simple sources and without...

Aridity, which is increasing worldwide due to climate change, affects the biodiversity and functions of dryland ecosystems. We provided first statistical evidence for abrupt changes species coexistence, ecological processes, niche conservation abundant rare soil bacteria triggered by diversity increases in aridity.

Allelopathy is closely associated with rhizosphere biological processes, and microbial communities are essential for plant development. However, our understanding of rhizobacterial under influence allelochemicals in licorice remains limited. In the present study, responses effects on allelopathy were investigated using a combination multi-omics sequencing pot experiments, allelochemical addition inoculation treatments.

Although studies of biogeography in soil bacterial communities have attracted considerable attention, the generality these patterns along with assembly processes and underlying drivers is poorly understood inner tissues plants. Plant provide unique ecological habitats for microorganisms, which play an essential role plant performance. Here, we compared core among five soil-plant associated compartments common bean across sampling sites China. Neutral null modelling consistently suggested...

Body size is a key ecological trait of soil microorganisms related to their adaptation environmental changes. In this study, we reveal that the smaller show stronger community resistance than larger organisms in both maize and rice soil. Compared with organisms, have higher diversity broader niche breadth deploy survival strategies, because which they are less affected by selection thus survive complex various kinds environments. addition, strong correlation between ecosystem functions...
