Climate change and the increasing frequency severity of drought events pose significant challenges for sustainable agriculture worldwide. Soil microorganisms, both beneficial pathogenic, play a crucial role in mediating plant-environment interactions shaping overall functioning agroecosystems. This review synthesizes current knowledge on contrasting adaptive mechanisms utilized by different groups plant-soil microorganisms focusing pathogenic bacterial fungal communities response to desiccation stresses. The examines common survival strategies employed microbes specifically rhizobacteria arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, such as production osmoprotectants, altered gene expression, biofilm formation. It also highlights distinct versus mutualistic microbes, with pathogens tending prioritize virulence factors suppress plant growth, while enhance growth stress tolerance. Genetic exchange horizontal transfer (HGT) is identified key mechanism, allowing non-pathogenic acquire traits like tolerance factors. Environmental stressors can promote increased genetic spread within soil microbiome. complex interplay between drought-adapted their plants discussed, emphasizing need deeper understanding microbiome dynamics under climate change. be agricultural practices mitigate impacts health productivity. provides insights into divergent desiccation, managing resilience agroecosystems

Fungi are highly diverse organisms, which provide multiple ecosystem services. However, compared with charismatic animals and plants, the distribution patterns conservation needs of fungi have been little explored. Here, we examined endemicity patterns, global change vulnerability priority areas for functional groups soil based on six surveys using a high-resolution, long-read metabarcoding approach. We found that all most peaks in tropical habitats, including Amazonia, Yucatan, West-Central Africa, Sri Lanka, New Caledonia, negligible island effect plants animals. also predominantly vulnerable to drought, heat land-cover change, particularly dry regions high human population density. Fungal highest include herbaceous wetlands, forests, woodlands. stress more attention should be focused fungi, especially root symbiotic arbuscular mycorrhizal ectomycorrhizal as well unicellular early-diverging macrofungi general. Given low overlap between macroorganisms, but both groups, detailed analyses requirements warranted other microorganisms organisms.

ABSTRACT Climate change significantly impacts terrestrial ecosystems by altering soil moisture, temperature regimes, rainfall patterns, and frequency of extreme weather events. These disruptions lead to shifts in community structures, accelerates land degradation processes, which turn exacerbate the global food crisis. This review explores roles earthworms fungi improving health mitigating insecurity through their contributions nutrient cycling, fertility, plant growth. Earthworms recognized as key biological agents structures enhancement, carbon sequestration. They play crucial heavy metal remediation, quality, fostering sustainable agricultural practices such organic farming. The emphasizes influence on dynamics, particularly response residues management, characteristics, field conditions. Earthworm activity positively affects microbial communities, growth, even under stress factors like contamination extremes.
