Root traits explain rhizosphere fungal community composition among temperate grassland plant species

Christopher J. Sweeney et al.

Summary: Plant species identity, phylogeny, and functional traits all play a role in shaping rhizosphere fungal communities, with root traits being stronger predictors than leaf traits. These relationships remain consistent regardless of environmental changes, highlighting the key role of plant root traits in driving fungal community composition.

Can We Use Functional Annotation of Prokaryotic Taxa (FAPROTAX) to Assign the Ecological Functions of Soil Bacteria?

Chakriya Sansupa et al.

Summary: This study assessed the application of FAPROTAX in soil environments and found that over 97% of the FAPROTAX assigned OTUs may potentially perform functions in agricultural and forest soils. The study suggests that FAPROTAX can be used for a fast-functional screening of bacterial data from terrestrial ecosystems and improving taxonomic and functional reference databases can enhance its performance.

Effects of Residue Retention and Removal Following Thinning on Soil Bacterial Community Composition and Diversity in a Larix olgensis Plantation, Northeast China

Xue Dong et al.

Summary: The research found that retention of thinning residues increased resource availability to the soil bacterial community, leading to changes in bacterial community structure. Acidobacteria were enriched in the RM treatment, while Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Bacteroidetes were more abundant in the RT treatment.

Physical and Biogeochemical Regionalization of the Southern Ocean and the CCAMLR Zone 48.1

Giovanni Testa et al.

Summary: The Southern Ocean and the 48.1 CCAMLR zone were analyzed to investigate the correlation between physical and biogeochemical variability. Bathymetry and sea ice coverage were identified as major factors explaining the biogeochemical variability in the region, with physical variables explaining a significant portion of the variance.

Mixed plantations of Metasequoia glyptostroboides and Bischofia polycarpa change soil fungal and archaeal communities and enhance soil phosphorus availability in Shanghai, China

Weiwei Zhang et al.

Summary: The study found that mixed plantations of Metasequoia glyptostroboides and Bischofia polycarpa can increase soil available phosphorus content, enhance fungal abundance, and alter the community compositions of archaea and fungi while increasing alkaline phosphatase activity. However, the effects on bacterial and archaeal communities in soil were not significant.
