Drought stress negatively impacts microbial activity, but the magnitude of stress responses are likely dependent on a diversity of below ground interactions. Populus trichocarpa individuals and no plant bulk soils were exposed to extended drought (~0.03% gravimetric water content (GWC) after 12d)...
Garrod’s concept of “chemical individuality” has contributed to comprehension of the molecular origins of human diseases. Untargeted high-throughput metabolomic technologies provide an in-depth snapshot of human metabolism at scale. We studied the genetic architecture of the human plasma metabolo...
Background:
Lignocellulose represents a primary input of organic carbon (C) into soils, yet the identity of specific microorganisms and genes which drive lignocellulose turnover in soils remain poorly understood. To address this knowledge gap, we used a 10-year grassland plant-exclusion exp...
