Towards a microbial process-based understanding of the resilience of peatland ecosystem service provisioning–a research agenda
Peatlands are wetland ecosystems with great significance as natural habitats and as major
global carbon stores. They have been subject to widespread exploitation and degradation …

Metagenomics and metatranscriptomics as potential driving forces for the exploration of diversity and functions of micro-eukaryotes in soil
Micro-eukaryotes are ubiquitous and play vital roles in diverse ecological systems, yet their
diversity and functions are scarcely known. This may be due to the limitations of formerly …

Peatland microhabitat heterogeneity drives phototrophic microbe distribution and photosynthetic activity
Phototrophic microbes are widespread in soils, but their contribution to soil carbon (C)
uptake remains underexplored in most terrestrial systems, including C‐accreting systems …

Temperature and CO2 interactively drive shifts in the compositional and functional structure of peatland protist communities
Microbes affect the global carbon cycle that influences climate change and are in turn
influenced by environmental change. Here, we use data from a long‐term whole‐ecosystem …
