Like all higher organisms, plants have evolved in the context of a microbial world, shaping
both their evolution and their contemporary ecology. Interactions between plant roots and soil …

The Park Grass experiment (PGE) in the UK has been ongoing since 1856. Its purpose is to
study the response of biological communities to the long-term treatments and associated …

Root exudates are plant-derived, exported metabolites likely shaping root-associated
microbiomes by acting as nutrients and signals. However, root exudation dynamics are unclear …

Abstract Changes within the environment by mining processes include increased soil
acidification, compaction, erosion, and air and water pollution. As it affects directly the soil …

Soil ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) are highly abundant and play an important role in
the nitrogen cycle. In addition, AOA have a significant impact on soil quality. Nitrite produced …

Agricultural management alters physical and chemical soil properties, which directly affects
microbial life strategies and community composition. The microbial community drives …

The activity of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) leads to the loss of nitrogen from soil,
pollution of water sources and elevated emissions of greenhouse gas. To date, eight AOA …

Agricultural land management, such as fertilization, liming, and tillage affects soil properties,
including pH, organic matter content, nitrification rates, and the microbial community. Three …

Beneficial plant-microbe interactions offer a sustainable biological solution with the potential
to boost low-input food and bioenergy production. A better mechanistic understanding of …

There is a dynamic reciprocity between plants and their environment: soil physiochemical
properties influence plant morphology and metabolism, and root morphology and exudates …
