Soil microbial community under a nurse-plant species changes in composition, biomass and activity as the nurse grows (2013, methodology): “However, we can exclude the effect of soil pH, which has shown to be a key factor in regulating microbial communities in other systems (Lauber et al., 2009; Rousk et al., 2010), since it remained between 7.7 and 8.0 in our treatments.”
Methods for the extraction, storage, amplification and sequencing of DNA from environmental samples (2018, background): “2013), pH (Lauber et al. 2009) and pollution gradients (Yergeau et al.”
Phenol oxidase, peroxidase and organic matter dynamics of soil (2010, background): “Finally, recent studies identify pH as a prominent predictor of microbial diversity (Fierer and Jackson, 2006; Lauber et al., 2008, 2009a; Hartman et al., 2008).”
Patterns and drivers of soil microbial communities in Tibetan alpine and global terrestrial ecosystems (2016, background): “Previous studies have illustrated that abiotic factors (edaphic and climatic variables) play important roles in determining soil microbial communities at the regional scale (Fierer & Jackson, 2006; Lauber et al., 2009; de Vries et al., 2012; Chen et al., 2014a).”
Consistent responses of soil microbial communities to elevated nutrient inputs in grasslands across the globe (2015, background): “001), and pH has been shown to strongly drive shifts in soil bacterial communities (42, 50, 51).”
Impact of inorganic nitrogen additions on microbes in biological soil crusts (2015, neutral): “structure (Lauber et al., 2009).”
Generation of Multimillion-Sequence 16S rRNA Gene Libraries from Complex Microbial Communities by Assembling Paired-End Illumina Reads (2011, background): “These approaches have provided a new window into the diversity and composition of microbial communities (11, 25, 31), increased sample throughput by use of indexing (1, 10, 19), and sparked interest in elucidating the members of the rare biosphere, which are microorganisms that exist at low relative”
Potential Benefits and Risks for Soil Health Derived From the Use of Organic Amendments in Agriculture (2019, background): “Several authors [121,122] evidenced the key role of soil pH for both microbial community structure and function.”
Forest Soil Bacteria: Diversity, Involvement in Ecosystem Processes, and Response to Global Change (2017, background): “where both the content of organic matter and the allocation of C by tree roots are high (43, 103).”
