The relationship between metallic micronutrients and soil microorganisms, and thereby soil
functioning, has been little explored. Here, we investigate the relationship between metallic …

The chicken continues to hold its position as a leading model organism within many areas of
research, as well as being a major source of protein for human consumption. The First …

Plant terrestrialization brought forth the land plants (embryophytes). Embryophytes account
for most of the biomass on land and evolved from streptophyte algae in a singular event …

The importance of microbial community diversity for soil functioning is still debated. Here, we
used a dilution approach (undiluted, and 10− 4, 10− 8 and 10− 12) and supplementation of …

Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in the environment and can potentially damage microbes
and plant root cells. Although the influence of MPs on soil parameters has been …

Soil microbes play key roles that support forest ecosystem functioning, while their community
characteristics are strongly determined by tree species identity. However, the majority …

Functional genomic strategies have become fundamental for annotating gene function and
regulatory networks. Here, we combined functional genomics with proteomics by quantifying …

The widespread secondary microplastics (MPs) in urban freshwater, originating from plastic
wastes, have created a new habitat called plastisphere for microorganisms. The factors …

Hedgehog signaling mediates embryologic development of the central nervous system and
other tissues and is frequently hijacked by neoplasia to facilitate uncontrolled cellular …

Drought impacts on microbial activity can alter soil carbon fate and lead to the loss of stored
carbon to the atmosphere as CO2 and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Here we …
