Plant disease outbreaks pose significant risks to global food security and environmental
sustainability worldwide, and result in the loss of primary productivity and biodiversity that …

The concept of one health highlights that human health is not isolated but connected to the
health of animals, plants and environments. In this Review, we demonstrate that soils are a …

Forests influence climate and mitigate global change through the storage of carbon in soils.
In turn, these complex ecosystems face important challenges, including increases in carbon …

Climate change challenges efforts to maintain and improve crop production in many regions.
In this Review, we examine yield responses to warmer temperatures, elevated carbon …

Climate change is increasing global temperatures and the frequency and severity of
droughts in many regions. These anthropogenic stresses pose a significant threat to plant …

Soil-borne pathogens pose a major threat to food production worldwide, particularly under
global change and with growing populations. Yet, we still know very little about how the soil …

Factors driving microbial community composition and diversity are well established but the
relationship with microbial functioning is poorly understood, especially at large scales. We …

Soil fungi are fundamental to plant productivity, yet their influence on the temporal stability of
global terrestrial ecosystems, and their capacity to buffer plant productivity against extreme …

Soils are the foundation of all terrestrial ecosystems. However, unlike for plants and animals,
a global assessment of hotspots for soil nature conservation is still lacking. This hampers our …

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR)—the ability of microorganisms to adapt and survive under
diverse chemical selection pressures—is influenced by complex interactions between …
