• Bacterial salt tolerance is unrelated to soil salinity across an arid agroecosystem salinity gradient (2011, background): “, 2009), the use of biomass responses (Sardinha et al., 2003; Wichern et al., 2006), relying on the lack of biomass accumulation in toxin treated samples to detect effects, and respiration measurements (Wichern et al.”
• Response of microbial activity and community structure to decreasing soil osmotic and matric potential (2011, background): “Salts in soil cause osmotic stress, which can reduce crop yields (Lambers 2003), and cause environmental problems such as erosion and eutrophication of waterways (West et al. 1994) and stress, or even kill, soil microorganisms ( Wichern et al. 2006a ) and therefore affect nutrient cycling.”
