Abstract:
... Mineral weathering bacteria play essential roles in nutrient cycling and plant nutrition. However, we are far from having a comprehensive view of the factors regulating their distribution and the molecular mechanisms involved. In this review, we highlight the extrinsic factors (i.e., nutrient availability, carbon source) and the intrinsic properties of minerals explaining the distribution and func ...

The considerations against its importance are that (i) enzymes benefit their producers the most when they remain in close proximity; and (ii) enzymes are large molecules with low mobility due to high affinity to fine soil particles and organic matter. However, soil mineral colloids (SMC), to which extracellu ...

Abstract:
... Climate change affects the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions by exposing previously frozen permafrost to thaw, unlocking soil nutrients, changing hydrological processes, and boosting plant growth. As a result, sub-Arctic tundra is subject to a shrub expansion, called “shrubification”, at the expense of sedge species. Depending on the intrinsic foliar properties of these plant species, changes in folia ...
