Soil reconstruction is a critical step in the restoration of environments affected by mining
activities. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the significant role that microbial …

Microbes inhabiting the above-and belowground tissues of forest trees and soils play a
critical role in the response of forest ecosystems to global climate change. However …

Mutualism is commonly observed in nature but not often reported for bacterial communities.
Although abiotic stress is thought to promote microbial mutualism, there is a paucity of …

Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in the environment and can potentially damage microbes
and plant root cells. Although the influence of MPs on soil parameters has been …

Nitrogen (N) enrichment poses threats to biodiversity and ecosystem stability, while
arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi play important roles in ecosystem stability and …

Application of biochar to soil has been recommended as a carbon sequestration approach
that can also improve soil physical and chemical properties. The addition of biochar to soil …

Gut microbiota are important in the adaptation of phytophagous insects to their plant hosts.
However, the interaction between gut microbiomes and pioneering populations of invasive …

Microplastics (MPs) are widespread in agricultural soil, potentially threatening soil
environmental quality and plant growth. However, toxicological research on MPs has mainly …

Biochar incorporation into soil has been found to benefit crop yield. However, the effects of
biochar application on crop root growth and morphology and root endophytic fungi in …

Microplastic contamination has become increasingly aggravated in coastal environments,
further affecting biogeochemical processes involved with microbial community shifts. As a …
