Microbiology investigates the complexities of interactions among different microbial species and their higher eukaryotic ...

The phycosphere region surrounding microalgal cells is the epicenter of intricate and complex interactions between heterotrophic microbes and microalgae, ranging from mutualism to competition. These ...

Soils release approximately 40–60 petagrams (Pg) of carbon annually into the atmosphere through microbial metabolism. Climate warming is projected to further enhance soil microbial respiration, ...

Harmful algal blooms are not all the same. That's true even of the blooms within northwest Ohio, where researchers have long known that the strain of cyanobacteria that typically dominates blooms in ...

In a new study, researchers have determined through both statistical analysis and in experiments that soil pH is a driver of microbial community composition -- but that the need to address toxicity ...

A new study shows that real-world ocean conditions make a huge difference in how viral infection affects host bacteria. The findings indicate it is very important to study cells and virocells under ...

Researchers have mapped how microbes underpin our food systems—and how we can stop their decline. Published in Frontiers in Science, their map of "agri-food system microbiomes" reveals how players at ...

Microplastics in soil can create tiny microbial hotspots, potentially reshaping soil health and the long-term sustainability ...

Microplastics are widely recognized as pollutants in oceans and waterways, but scientists are increasingly discovering that they are also accumulating in agricultural soils. A new scientific review ...
