Role of Stabilised Enzymes in Microbial Ecology and Enzyme Extraction from Soil with Potential Applications in Soil Proteomics (2006, background): “It is now established that also in soil microbiology there is a need to go beyond DNA analysis for better characterization of microbial functions in soil (Nannipieri et al. 2003).”
Laccases: toward disentangling their diversity and functions in relation to soil organic matter cycling (2010, background): “From an ecological point of view, this underlines the importance to link ecosystem processes to the biotic, especially microbial diversity and their enzyme activity (Leckie 2005; Nannipieri et al. 2003; Zak et al. 2006).”
Arbuscular mycorrhiza and soil nitrogen cycling (2012, background): “Spatial extension of the rhizosphere, a well known “hot spot” of microbial activity (Nannipieri et al., 2003), means that N-cycling processes may thus occur in a larger soil volume (Fig.”
Microbial hotspots and hot moments in soil: Concept & review (2015, background): “Nannipieri et al. (2003) concluded that less than 5% of the available soil space is occupied by microorganisms in hotspots.”
Role of Phosphatase Enzymes in Soil (2011, background): “by changes in composition, abundance or activity of the soil microflora; thus the intracelluler enzyme activity of active cells should be used as an indicator of nutrient dynamics and changes in soil functioning due to agricultural management and ecological factors because it is well established tha”
Interactions between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and phosphate-solubilizing fungus (Mortierella sp.) and their effects on Kostelelzkya virginica growth and enzyme activities of rhizosphere and bulk soils at different salinities (2011, background): “It is difficult to explain the different responses of enzyme activities of bulk and rhizosphere soils inoculated with PSF and AMF, because the measured enzyme activities depend on the contribution of both extracellular and intracellular enzyme activities (Nannipieri et al. 2003), and stable extracel”
Efficacy of Biofertilizers: Challenges to Improve Crop Production (2016, background): “This could derive from the observation that a key aspect determining the relationship of microorganisms with plants is not their taxonomic diversity, but rather their functional diversity (Nannipieri et al. 2003 ; Maherali and Klironomos 2007 ).”
Temperature sensitivity of soil organic matter decomposition—what do we know? (2009, background): “…the functional omnipotence of the soil microflora (Ottow 1997), indicating that microbial diversity generally does not alter the rate of processes such as C and N mineralisation (Nannipieri et al. 2003) because these processes can be carried out by most of the microbial species inhabiting soil.”
Community level functional diversity and enzyme activities in paddy soils under different long-term fertilizer management practices (2011, methodology): “However, the use of CLPPs has been criticized because it is culture dependent (Nannipieri et al. 2003) and for this reason the assay has been applied to soil (Degens and Harris 1997).”
Moss-dominated biocrusts increase soil microbial abundance and community diversity and improve soil fertility in semi-arid climates on the Loess Plateau of China (2017, background): “In this context, it is well believed that soil microbial community diversity provides the cornerstone for support of soil ecosystem services by key roles in soil organic matter turnover, C sequestration, and even water cycling (Nannipieri et al., 2003; Brussaard et al., 2007).”
Comparison on the structure and function of the rhizosphere microbial community between healthy and root-rot Panax notoginseng (2016, background): “Biolog plates are known to detect only fast-growing, aerobic, culturable heterotrophs (Nannipieri et al., 2003; Winding and Hendriksen, 1997).”
