Global Change and the Soil Microbiome: A Human-Health Perspective
The importance of the gut and the soil microbiomes as determinants of human and ecosystem health, respectively, is gaining rapid acceptation in the medical and ecological literatures. This suggests that there is a wealth of highly transferable knowledge about the microbial ecology of human and non-human ecosystems that is currently being generated in parallel, but mostly in isolation from one a...
متن کاملThe Soil Microbiome Influences Grapevine-Associated Microbiota
UNLABELLED Grapevine is a well-studied, economically relevant crop, whose associated bacteria could influence its organoleptic properties. In this study, the spatial and temporal dynamics of the bacterial communities associated with grapevine organs (leaves, flowers, grapes, and roots) and soils were characterized over two growing seasons to determine the influence of vine cultivar, edaphic par...
متن کاملAssessing Soil Health for Tree Fruit and Vine Crops
What is soil health? The objective of this presentation is to present information on the types of measurements of soil biological properties that might be useful as bio-indicators of soil health. First, however, it is necessary to discuss what soil health means. Scientists, farmers and land managers have long known that there is more to the productive capacity of soil than what can be predicted...
متن کاملAssessing Relation of Soil Hydrophobicity and Soil Water Content and Determining Threshold Moisture of Organic Soil Samples
Soil water content is the most effective factor associated with the hydrophobic and hydrophilic changes in a soil. Water repellency in soils, is not a permanent feature; it can be reached in the dry season and reduced or eliminated in the wet season It can be said that in terms of moisture, there is a critical region that is defined as the threshold moisture content, where in lower moisture, th...
متن کاملSignificant Impacts of Increasing Aridity on the Arid Soil Microbiome
Global deserts occupy one-third of the Earth's surface and contribute significantly to organic carbon storage, a process at risk in dryland ecosystems that are highly vulnerable to climate-driven ecosystem degradation. The forces controlling desert ecosystem degradation rates are poorly understood, particularly with respect to the relevance of the arid-soil microbiome. Here we document correlat...
