Article Abstract

We present eight metatranscriptomic datasets of light algal and cyanolichen biological soil crusts from the Mojave Desert in response to wetting. These data will help us understand gene expression patterns in desert biocrust microbial communities after they have been reactivated by the addition of water.

Inter-laboratory replicability is crucial yet challenging in microbiome research. Leveraging microbiomes to promote soil health and plant growth requires understanding underlying molecular mechanisms using reproducible experimental systems. In a global collaborative effort involving five laboratories, we aimed to help advance reproducibility in microbiome studies by testing our ability to replicate synthetic community assembly experiments.

Rice Root Iron Plaque as a Mediator to Stimulate Methanotrophic Nitrogen Fixation.

Environ Sci Technol

September 2025

Fujian Provincial Key Laboratory of Soil Environmental Health and Regulation, College of Resources and Environment, Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, Fuzhou 350002, China.

Iron plaque (IP) on rice root surfaces has been extensively documented as a natural barrier that effectively reduces contaminant bioavailability and accumulation. However, its regulatory mechanisms in rhizospheric methane oxidation and biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) remain elusive. This study reveals a previously unrecognized function of IP: mediating methanotrophic nitrogen fixation through coupled aerobic methane oxidation and IP reduction (Fe-MOX).

The family , encompassing the genus and related taxa, comprises diverse Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacteria found in varied habitats, including air, soil, water and glaciers. Recent genomic-based taxonomic revisions have reclassified some species into new genera, such as and , due to polyphyletic relationships within the family . Certain species are known for forming biofilms or functioning as aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria, traits that enhance resilience in extreme environments like the cryosphere.

is a commensal bacterium that colonizes the gut of humans and animals and is a major opportunistic pathogen, known for causing multidrug-resistant healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). Its ability to thrive in diverse environments and disseminate antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) across ecological niches highlights the importance of understanding its ecological, evolutionary, and epidemiological dynamics. The CRISPR2 locus has been used as a valuable marker for assessing clonality and phylogenetic relationships in .
