Soil is a living ecosystem, the health of which depends on fine interactions among its abiotic
and biotic components. These form a delicate equilibrium maintained through a multilayer …

Randomness is intrinsic to many natural processes. It is also clear that, under certain
conditions, disorders are not associated with functionality. Several examples in which …

The utilization of industrial and agricultural resources, such as desulfurization gypsum and
straw, is increasingly favored to improve saline alkali land. However, there is still a lack of …

Mangrove ecosystems in the intertidal zone are continually affected by tidal inundation, but

Mangrove forests are important biotic sinks of atmospheric CO2 and play an integral role in
nutrient-cycling and decontamination of coastal waters, thereby mitigating climatic and …

Microorganisms play an important role in litter decomposition. Bacteria and fungi colonize
litter during the decomposition process; therefore, understanding the interactions of bacterial …

Mangrove sediment ecosystems in the coastal areas of the Yucatan peninsula are unique
environments, influenced by their karstic origin and connection with the world's largest …

Although lignocellulose is the most abundant and renewable natural resource for biofuel

Mangrove forests are highly productive yet vulnerable ecosystems that act as important
carbon sinks (“blue carbon”). The objective of this work was to analyze the impact of …

Abstract Knowledge on how grassland microbiota responds on gene expression level to
winter-summer change of seasons is poor. Here, we used a combination of quantitative PCR …
