Lignin is the second most abundant polymer in nature, which is also widely generated
during biomass fractionation in lignocellulose biorefineries. At present, most of technical …

Bacteria can regulate cell morphology in response to environmental conditions, altering their
physiological and metabolic characteristics to improve survival. Conditional filamentation, in …

Global climate warming may induce a positive feedback through increasing soil carbon (C)
release to the atmosphere. Although warming can affect both C input to and output from soil …

Unravelling biosphere feedback mechanisms is crucial for predicting the impacts of global
warming. Soil priming, an effect of fresh plant-derived carbon (C) on native soil organic …

Climate projection requires an accurate understanding for soil organic carbon (SOC)
decomposition and its response to warming. An emergent view considers that environmental …

Introduction The functions of terrestrial ecosystems are mainly maintained by bacteria, as a
key component of microorganisms, which actively participate in the nutrient cycling of …

Climate change is strongly affecting high‐mountain soils and warming in particular is
associated with pronounced changes in microbe‐mediated C and N cycling, affecting plant …

Identification of the core functional microorganisms in food fermentations is necessary to
understand the ecological and functional processes for making those foods. Wheat qu …

Identifying the core taxa involved in the utilization of plant straw or/and rhizodeposits is key
to understanding the microbial mechanisms underlying the turnover of these plant-derived …

The priming effect is a pivotal mechanism for microbial regulation of soil C cycling; however,
the microbial mechanisms underlying priming effects remain elusive. Here, we combined an …
