DOI: 10.1007/s11676-021-01368-y
Abstract: Vegetation types alter soil ecosystems by changing soil fauna community activities and soil physical–chemical properties. However, it is unclear how tree species (natural forest, native and exotic tree plantations) promote changes in the soil ecosystem,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12550-020-00393-w
Abstract: Aflatoxins are secondary metabolites produced by specific strains of fungi, especially Aspergillus spp. These natural toxins are mainly found in soil, decaying vegetation and food storage systems and are particularly abundant during drought stress. Aflatoxin… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/agronomy13041110
Abstract: Microorganisms play essential roles in soil-ecosystem multifunctionality. However, the contribution of their community assembly processes, composition, diversity, and keystone species to ecosystem multifunctionality is unclear, especially in tea-plantation ecosystems. In order to assess the effects… read more here.

Effects of Insect-Resistant Maize 2A-7 Expressing mCry1Ab and mCry2Ab on the Soil Ecosystem
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Plants"
DOI: 10.3390/plants11172218
Abstract: Transgenic maize 2A-7 expressing mCry1Ab and mCry2Ab has excellent resistance to lepidopteran pests. Previous studies have investigated the effects of several Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) proteins on the soil. However, the effects of artificially modified Bt… read more here.
