Wetlands cover a small portion of the world, but have disproportionate influence on global
carbon (C) sequestration, carbon dioxide and methane emissions, and aquatic C fluxes …

Anoxia and harmful metabolites are two of several particularities that characterize wetland
soils and make their study so fascinating. Unique physiological and anatomical adaptations …

Seasonal dynamics of microbial community under frequently fluctuating oxidized and
reduced conditions in floodplain soils are poorly understood, but are considered to be …

Root exudation increases the concentration of readily available carbon (C) compounds in its
immediate environment. This creates 'hotspots' of microbial activity characterized by …

Availability of cadmium (Cd) and nitrate and their transfer to green leafy vegetables is highly
dependent on physical, chemical and biochemical conditions of the soil. The phenotypic …

The application of straw and biochar is widely practiced for the improvement of soil fertility.
However, its impact on microbial functional profiles, particularly with regard to paddy soils, is …

The application of nitrogen fertilizer is an important agronomic practice for stimulating plant
production but is also reported to affect soil microorganisms, either directly or indirectly, via …

Hydrological variations have substantial effects on the diversity and composition of soil
bacterial communities in wetlands. At the spatial scale, the responses of soil bacterial …

The relative contribution of different microbial groups to soil organic matter (SOM) turnover
and utilisation of rhizodeposits during a cropping season has remained largely unknown …

Tracking photosynthesized carbon (C) allocation into different C pools is crucial for
management of C sequestration, especially in agroecosystems. However, the effects of long …
