Soil health is crucial for global food production in the context of an ever-growing population. Microbiomes, a combination microorganisms and their activities, play pivotal role by biodegrading contaminants, maintaining soil structure, controlling nutrients' cycles, regulating plant responses to biotic abiotic stresses. Microbiome-based solutions along soil-plant continuum, scaling up from laboratory experiments field applications, hold promise enhancing agricultural sustainability harnessing power microbial consortia. Synthetic communities, i.e., selected consortia, are designed perform specific functions. In contrast, natural communities leverage indigenous populations that adapted local conditions, promoting ecosystem resilience, reducing reliance on external inputs. The identification indicators requires holistic approach. It fundamental current understanding status providing comprehensive assessment sustainable land management practices conservation efforts. Recent advancements molecular technologies, such as high-throughput sequencing, revealed incredible diversity microbiomes. On one hand, metagenomic sequencing allows characterization entire genetic composition microbiomes, examination functional potential ecological roles; other culturomics-based approaches metabolic fingerprinting offer complementary information snapshots activities both

Coccidioidomycosis is a fungal disease affecting humans and other mammals caused by environmental pathogens of the genus Coccidioides. Human exposure to pathogen occurs via inhalation spores aerosolized from soil. Thus, understanding ecological factors that shape distribution Coccidioides in soils important for minimizing risk human exposure, though this task remains challenging due pathogen’s highly variable spatial distribution. Here, we examined associations between soil microbial community immitis’ presence within Carrizo Plain National Monument, minimally disturbed grassland ecosystem, site longitudinal study examining effects rodents their burrows on C. soils. Using internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) 16S amplicon sequencing characterize bacterial communities, found over 30 species, including several members Onygenales order, co-occurred with immitis more frequently than would be expected chance. Coccidioides-positive samples were significantly higher diversity negative samples, an association partly driven rodent compared surface Soil source (i.e., burrow versus soil) explained largest amount variation composition, collected having those adjacent While prior evidence mixed regarding relationship diversity, find favorable microhabitats, such as burrows, lead positive presence, particularly otherwise resource-limited natural environments.

ABSTRACT Sorghum bicolor, an important global crop, adapted to thrive in hotter and drier conditions than maize or rice, has deep roots that interact with a stratified soil microbiome plays crucial role plant health, growth, carbon storage. Microbiome studies on agricultural soils, particularly fields growing S. bicolor , have been mostly limited surface soils (<30 cm). Here we investigated the abiotic factors of properties, field location, depth, biotic sorghum type across 38 genotypes microbiome. Utilizing 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, our analysis reveals significant changes microbial composition decreasing diversity at increasing depths within fields, regardless genotype field, richness declining minimum 60–90 cm layer beyond 90 depth. Notably, specific families, such as Thermogemmatisporaceae unclassified family ABS-6 order, were enriched deeper layers 30 cm. These findings highlight importance depth studies. IMPORTANCE is valuable model for studying which enhancing sequestration systems. As look crops improved storage, it essential move traditional focus settings. This study shifts by investigating dynamics greater depths, revealing critical deep-soil microbiomes nutrient cycling deep-rooted crop . By exploring these processes this research supports development sustainable practices can better harness potential long-term
