Assessing bacterial diversity in soil (2008, background): “Nevertheless, only 0.1–1% of soil bacteria are accessible by these approaches (Hill et al. 2000), which make the wide phylogenetic diversity remaining sparsely studied (Kaiser et al. 2001; Smit et al. 2001 ).”
Soil carbon quality and nitrogen fertilization structure bacterial communities with predictable responses of major bacterial phyla (2014, background): “It has been proposed that the ratio between Proteobacteria or Alphaproteobacteria and Acidobacteria reflects the trophic status of the soil, with lower ratios found in oligotrophic environments (Hartman et al., 2008; Smit et al., 2001).”
Effects of transgenic potatoes with an altered starch composition on the diversity of soil and rhizosphere bacteria and fungi (2005, background): “Pseudomonas populations are supposed to be directly influenced and greatly stimulated by plant root exudates which favour microorganisms with high intrinsic growth rates (Smit et al., 2001).”
Members of soil bacterial communities sensitive to tillage and crop rotation (2010, background): “Acidobacteria have been found in wheat fields (Smit et al., 2001), associated with the later stages of take-all decline (Sanguin et al.”
The bacterial biogeography of British soils. (2011, background): “…at low pH) dominate Acidobacteria in soils with high nutrient availability, and the relative abundances of these taxa have been associated with broad measures of ecosystem functioning such as carbon cycling (Smit et al., 2001; Griffiths et al., 2006; Fierer et al., 2007; Thomson et al., 2010).”
Screening for plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria in Chamaecytisus proliferus (tagasaste), a forage tree-shrub legume endemic to the Canary Islands (2005, background): “To date, only limited information exists on microbial diversity and dynamic of population in agricultural soil (Dunbar et al., 2000; Normander and Prosser, 2000; Smit et al., 2001).”
Soil Microbial Community Responses to Multiple Experimental Climate Change Drivers (2009, background): “Moreover, it has been proposed that the ratio of acidobacteria to proteobacteria could be used as indicator of the trophic level of soils (52), and the ratios we observed would thus suggest that the dry treatments are indeed more oligotrophic than the wet treatments.”
