Building a genome-based understanding of bacterial pH preferences
The environmental preferences of many microbes remain undetermined. This is the case for
bacterial pH preferences, which can be difficult to predict a priori despite the importance of …

[HTML][HTML] Distribution of phosphorus cycling genes across land uses and microbial taxonomic groups based on metagenome and genome mining
Phosphorus (P) is an essential and limiting nutrient in soil and is tightly linked to soil fertility
and productivity. Microorganisms have developed different mechanisms to respond to P …

Bacterial genome size and gene functional diversity negatively correlate with taxonomic diversity along a pH gradient
Bacterial gene repertoires reflect adaptive strategies, contribute to ecosystem functioning
and are limited by genome size. However, gene functional diversity does not necessarily …

A review of the reactivity of phosphatase controlled by clays and clay minerals: implications for understanding phosphorus mineralization in soils
A Chen, Y Arai - Clays and Clay Minerals, 2023 - cambridge.org
Mineralizable macronutrients (eg C, N, P, and S) are sorbed readily (ie adsorption and
precipitation) in clays and clay minerals. Phosphorus (P) is one of the limiting macronutrients …
