DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.8b03606
Abstract: Microbial strains and indigenous microbiota in soil slurries have been reported to use electrons from electrodes for nitrate (NO3-) reduction. However, few studies have confirmed this in a soil matrix hitherto. This study investigated if,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/01647954.2020.1804997
Abstract: ABSTRACT Forests create harbour different soil mite communities due to their high spatial heterogeneity, within which microhabitats become biodiversity hotspots or refugia. This study aimed to characterize and contrast the mesostigmatid mite communities in the… read more here.
