Life and death in the soil microbiome: how ecological processes influence biogeochemistry

Noah W. Sokol et al.

Summary: Soil microorganisms play a critical role in global biogeochemical cycles, and their metabolic functions are influenced by ecological interactions and the surrounding environment. Understanding microbial life and death can help predict soil biogeochemical dynamics.

Earthworms exert long lasting afterlife effects on soil microbial communities

Jiani Lin et al.

Summary: The decomposition of earthworm cadavers decreased the diversity and composition of soil microbial communities, with significant shifts in fungal and protistan communities towards r-selected copiotrophic strategists. The results suggest that dead earthworms play a distinct role in influencing soil microbial communities and associated functioning, highlighting the need to consider the afterlife effects of soil biota.

Steering microbiomes by organic amendments towards climate-smart agricultural soils

Kristof Brenzinger et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that steering soil microbiome through application of specific organic amendments can reduce greenhouse gases emissions, increase soil carbon content, and promote crop growth. Organic amendments have the potential to modulate the microbial community in soils, making them more climate-smart compared to conventional use of mineral fertilizers.

Soil fauna diversity and chemical stressors: a review of knowledge gaps and roadmap for future research

Lea Beaumelle et al.

Summary: Current knowledge about the effects of chemicals on soil fauna communities is limited, with research having a limited spatial scope and notable gaps. Future research should address biases in spatial distribution of studies, consider more taxonomic groups and chemical compounds, and emphasize indirect effects mediated by species interactions, ecosystem functioning, and interactive effects of stressors and climate change.

Effects of the earthworm Pontoscolex corethrurus on rice P nutrition and plant-available soil P in a tropical Ferralsol

Jean Trap et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that the endogeic earthworm Pontoscolex corethrurus significantly increased rice shoot biomass and P nutrition in P-deficient Ferralsol soil. The calculation of L-value is subject to various uncertainties, which should be considered in further research.

Long-term elevated CO2 and warming enhance microbial necromass carbon accumulation in a paddy soil

Zhiwei Liu et al.

Summary: Soil microbial necromass plays a critical role in soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration, with elevated CO2 increasing fungal-derived C and warming increasing bacterial-derived C in SOC. The combination of elevated CO2 and warming resulted in the highest total microbial necromass and SOC accumulation, with root biomass indirectly affecting total amino sugar concentration through increased microbial biomass. Further research involving multiple sampling times is needed to understand the temporal dynamics of these properties.

Microbial Community Resilience across Ecosystems and Multiple Disturbances

Laurent Philippot et al.

Summary: The ability of ecosystems to withstand disturbances and recover their functions is increasingly tested under global environmental change. Microorganisms play a crucial role in ecosystem functioning, and understanding how they respond to multiple disturbances is essential for predicting ecosystem resilience.

Diversity and asynchrony in soil microbial communities stabilizes ecosystem functioning

Cameron Wagg et al.

Summary: Both theoretical and empirical research have shown the importance of biodiversity for stabilizing ecosystem functions over time. Experimental results indicate that microbial diversity plays a crucial role in enhancing the temporal stability of ecosystem functions, with asynchrony among microbial taxa serving as a key mechanism for the stabilizing effect of soil biodiversity.
