Urban trees are crucial in delivering essential ecosystem services, including air pollution mitigation. This service is influenced by plant associated microbiomes, which can degrade hydrocarbons, support tree health, and influence ecological processes. Yet, our understanding of microbiomes remains limited, thus affecting ability to assess quantify the services provided as complex systems. The main hypothesis this work was that concur hydrocarbon biodegradation, tested through three case studies, collectively investigated two micro-habitats (phyllosphere cavity organic soil-TCOS) under various conditions representing diverse scenarios, applying different culture-based molecular techniques at scales. integration all results a more comprehensive role urban trees. Firstly, bacterial strains isolated from phyllosphere

Macadamia nut plantings in China are expanding year by year. In order to breed and promote superior varieties, this study analyzed the effects of different rootstocks scions on survival rate grafted seedlings, then selected best substrate composition for plant growth. The results showed that HAES788 variety as rootstock Guire No. 1 scion was highest, reaching 96%. optimal grafting time December better than March. Furthermore, among 16 formulations, T12, T13, T15, T16 had advantages agglomerated soil more well-developed root systems compared CK made loess. height, stem diameter, leaf length, width, dry weight aboveground underground parts seedlings planted these formulations were significantly higher those plants CK. addition, improved organic matter, total nitrogen, potassium content soils, but little improvement observed phosphorus after 13 months. Overall, macadamia times December, with being scion. T16. This provides a solid foundation production high-quality plants.
