Abstract:
... Fungal endophyte community amplicon sequencing can lose a significant number of informative reads due to host-plant co-amplification. Blocking of plant-specific sequences with peptide nucleic acid (PNA) clamps has been shown to improve metrics of detected microbial diversity in studies targeting 16S and 18S regions of rRNA genes. However, PNA clamping has not been applied to the plant ITS region o ...

Abstract:
... Microorganisms govern soil nutrient cycling. It is therefore critical to understand their responses to human-induced increases in N and P inputs. We investigated microbial community composition, biomass, functional gene abundance, and enzyme activities in response to 10-year N and P addition in a primary tropical montane forest, and we explored the drivers behind these effects. Fungi were more sen ...

We attempted to clarify this question by establishing an experiment in which the understory vegetation was either removed or maintained as controls in a primary tropical forest in south China. The results showed that re ...

These impacts on diversity are likely to be scale-dependent and thus affect different aspects of diversity (i.e. beta, gamma and alpha). For example, the widespread invasion of non-native pine trees causes a loss of plant gamma diversity; however, the effects of this invasion an ...
