Glacier shrinkage will accelerate downstream decomposition of organic matter and alters microbiome structure and function

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Susheel Bhanu Busi, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Leïla Ezzat, Massimo Bourquin, Nicola Deluigi, Matteo Tolosano, Tyler Joe Kohler, Jade Brandani

The shrinking of glaciers is among the most iconic consequences of climate change. Despite this, the downstream consequences for ecosystem processes and related microbiome structure and function remain poorly understood. Here, using a space-for-time substi ...

Nutrient Availability Does Not Affect Community Assembly in Root-Associated Fungi but Determines Fungal Effects on Plant Growth

Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Bing Bai

Nonmycorrhizal root-colonizing fungi are key determinants of plant growth, driving processes ranging from pathogenesis to stress alleviation. Evidence suggests that they might also facilitate host access to soil nutrients in a mycorrhiza-like manner, but t ...

The methylome of the model arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus, Rhizophagus irregularis, shares characteristics with early diverging fungi and Dikarya

Natalia Gasilova, Laure Menin

Early-diverging fungi (EDF) are distinct from Dikarya and other eukaryotes, exhibiting high N6-methyldeoxyadenine (6mA) contents, rather than 5-methylcytosine (5mC). As plants transitioned to land the EDF sub-phylum, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF; Glom ...

Genetically Different Isolates of the Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungus Rhizophagus irregularis Induce Differential Responses to Stress in Cassava

Constant Signarbieux

Water scarcity negatively impacts global crop yields and climate change is expected to greatly increase the severity of future droughts. The use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can potentially mitigate the effects of water stress in plants. Cassava i ...

Species identity, rather than species mixtures, drives cover crop effects on nutrient partitioning in unfertilized agricultural soil

Alexandre Buttler, Pierre Rémi Mariotte, Mathieu Raymond Santonja, Lucas Georges Jean-Paul Freund

Aims Previous cover crop studies mainly focused on the links between plant uptake and soil fertility, and there is a clear knowledge gap regarding the role of microbes in these processes. Our aim was then to better understand the effects of plant mixtures ...

Transport and Water Age Dynamics in Soils: A Comparative Study of Spatially Integrated and Spatially Explicit Models

Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Benettin, Mitra Asadollahi

We address transport by transit times (i.e., the age of water parcels leaving a storage as discharge, deep loss, or evapotranspiration) in subvertical soil systems, key to our understanding of water quality in catchments and streams. While the use of field ...

Drivers of soil carbon stabilization in oil palm plantations

Alexandre Buttler, Thomas Guillaume, Mathieu Raymond Santonja, Juan Carlos Quezada Rivera, Johanna Katharina Rüegg

Increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) in agroecosystems is necessary to mitigate climate change and soil degradation. Management practices designed to reach this goal call for a deeper understanding of the processes and drivers of soil carbon input stabiliz ...

Sphagnum Species Modulate their Phenolic Profiles and Mycorrhizal Colonization of Surrounding Andromeda polifolia along Peatland Microhabitats

Alexandre Buttler, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey

Sphagnum mosses mediate long-term carbon accumulation in peatlands. Given their functional role as keystone species, it is important to consider their responses to ecological gradients and environmental changes through the production of phenolics. We compa ...

Seasonality alters drivers of soil enzyme activity in subalpine grassland soil undergoing climate change

Alexandre Buttler, Konstantin Svetlozarov Gavazov, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Thomas Spiegelberger, Robert Thomas Edmund Mills

In mountain ecosystems with marked seasonality, climate change can affect various processes in soils, potentially modifying long-term key soil services via change in soil organic carbon (C) storage. Based on a four-year soil transplantation experiment in S ...

Contrasting responses of bacterial and fungal communities to plant litter diversity in a Mediterranean oak forest

Mathieu Raymond Santonja

Tree species diversity of forested ecosystems control the diversity of leaf litter inputs to the soil, with cascading effects on the microbial communities colonizing decomposing litter. However, the extent to which bacterial and fungal communities inhabiti ...
