Despite growing interest in soil microbial resource limitation (MRL), the impacts of clipping-and-burning on bacterial resource acquisition and its soil carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorous stoichiometry (C:N:P) remain unclear, yet are critical for nutrient cycling and SOC accumulation in vegetation restoration. We examined the soil C:N:P and eco-enzymatic stoichiometry, bacterial life-history strategies, and bacterial resource limitation under the influence of clipping-and-burning management practices: high-intensity fire (HIF), low-intensity fire (LIF), clipping-and-fire (CF), clipping (CP), and an undisturbed control (CK) in a Karst site in southwest China. The results showed that SOC, TN, and TP in HIF and LIF were significantly (p < 0.05) reduced (by 64%, 97%, and 99%) compared to CK. However, soil C:N, C:P, and N:P ratios were surprisingly higher (18.1, 56, and 3.08) in CF than in CK. The ratios of soil microbial biomass carbon (MBC) and nitrogen (MBN) were higher (4.8) under clipping. In contrast, their ratios with microbial biomass phosphorus (MBP) were observed to be higher (22.3 and 6.4) under high-intensity fire compared to CK. Moreover, results show that there is a higher percentage of species linked with oligotroph bacteria of Rickettsiales in CF treatments than CK. Soil bacterial communities in CF treatments exhibited co-limitation by C and P, whereas N limitation was more pronounced under low-intensity fire conditions. In conclusion, the evidence links MRL to soil C:N:P stoichiometry, underscoring the critical role of oligotrophic bacteria in mediating soil nutrient dynamics under clipping-and-burning disturbances. These findings improve our understanding of MRL over the Karst region under clipping-and-burning treatments, shedding light on its relationship with soil C:N:P, eco-enzymatic stoichiometry, and bacterial life-history strategies.

Degumming, a process of removing gummy substances surrounding fiber, plays a crucial role in preparing plant fibers. This study clearly clarified that the multiple degumming enzymes by Bacillus subtilis XW-18 acted as a decisive factor for driving bio-degumming process of raw pineapple leaves. Firstly, PCR analysis verified that B.

Decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE) is one of the most extensively used novel brominated flame retardants, and it has been frequently detected in the global environment. Although organisms encounter various pollutants through the intestine, the toxicity effects of DBDPE exposure on the intestine and the potential mechanisms remain unclear. Here, by morphological observation, histopathology, high-throughput sequencing, and transcriptomics methods, we evaluated the effects of environmental (0.

One new azaphilone derivative () from in ordinary medium, one new phthalide derivative (), a microbial transformation product of ingredients by , a pair of new austdiol enantiomers (+)- and (-)-, one new epsilon-caprolactone derivative (), and one new ophiobolin-type sesterterpenoid () from the in host medium were reported. The structures were determined by spectroscopic analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds - could completely inhibit the germination of rice seeds at 50 μg/mL, which is higher than that of the positive control.

Considering that the human microbiota plays a critical role in health and disease, an accurate and high-resolution taxonomic classification is thus essential for meaningful microbiome analysis. In this study, we developed an automatic system, named MultiTax pipeline, for generating taxonomy from full-length 16S rRNA sequences using the Genome Taxonomy Database and other existing reference databases. We first constructed the MultiTax-human database, a high-resolution resource specifically designed for human microbiome research and clinical applications.

The agricultural sector of any country plays a pivotal role in its economy. Irrigation and the provision of appropriate nutrient levels in soil are essential for optimizing plant growth and enhancing crop productivity. To support the increasing need for food due to the growing population worldwide, synthetic fertilizers have been widely used in the agricultural sector.
