Under our feet, in the soil, is a wealth of microbial activity. Just like humans have different metabolisms and food choices, so do those microbes. In fact, microbes play an important role in making ...
Soil nitrogen-hydrolyzing enzymes catalyzes a key rate-limiting step in regulating the circulation of soil nutrient elements. The response of soil nitrogen (N)-hydrolyzing enzyme activities to ...
When soil microbes eat plant matter, the digested food follows one of two pathways. Either the microbe uses the food to build its own body, or it respires its meal as carbon dioxide (CO 2) into the ...
June 7 (UPI) --Across the globe, just a handful of common bacteria taxa account for the use of carbon in the soil. According to a new survey, published Monday in the journal Nature Communications, the ...
Historically neglected by microbial ecologists, soil viruses are now thought to be critical to global biogeochemical cycles. However, our understanding of their global distribution, activities and ...
Soil erosion is widely known for degrading land and reducing agricultural productivity. But new research shows it may also play a far more complex and important role in regulating the global nitrogen ...
Carbon emissions from cars and factories often are blamed for creating the climate crisis, yet food waste contributes the most greenhouse gases in the world. “Methane gas is a greenhouse gas,” said ...
Most gardeners spend a surprising amount of energy hauling pruned branches, stems, and leaves away from their beds, only to ...
Under our feet, in the soil, is a wealth of microbial activity. Just like humans have different metabolisms and food choices, so do those microbes. In fact, microbes play an important role in making ...
But different microbes have distinct roles to play, and environmental factors influence activity. Under our feet, in the soil, is a wealth of microbial activity. Just like humans have different ...
