Phototrophic and heterotrophic microorganisms coexist in complex and dynamic structures
called periphyton. These structures shape the biogeochemistry and biodiversity of aquatic …

As a pervasive microbial aggregate found at the water-soil interface in paddy fields,
periphyton plays crucial roles in modulating nutrient biogeochemical cycling. Consequently …

Salt stress is a major problem happening in almost all the world, affecting soil metabolism
and acting further negatively soil fertility and soil quality, causing land degradation and low …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) plays vital roles in carbon and other nutrient transformation
at soil-water interfaces (SWI) in paddy fields. It is associated with the growth and withering of …

It is of great interest to utilize saline fields to promote rice production in China. Previous
studies reported greater yield productivity of japonica/indica hybrids (JIH) over indica …

Phototrophic biofilms are easy to grow at sediment/soil–water interfaces (SWIs) in shallow
aquatic ecosystems and greatly impact nutrient biogeochemical cycles. However, the …

Periphyton plays a significant role in heavy metal transfer in wetlands, but its contribution to
cadmium (Cd) bioavailability in paddy fields remains largely unexplored. The main aim of …

Periphyton plays an indispensable role in coastal saline‐alkali land, but its function is poorly
understood. Soil physical and chemical properties (pH value, salinity, soil organic matter) …

Utilizing an acid-resistant biological soil crust (BSC) species that we discovered, we
developed a device capable of efficiently removing cadmium (Cd) from mine wastewater …

Soil salinization and water deficits in gully consolidation farmland including excavated
farmland (EF) and sediment deposited farmland (SF) have become an increasing concern in …
