FEMS Microbiology Ecology Webinar on Ecology of Soil Microorganisms
Channel: FEMS Microbiology
Date: 2020-11-17

Soil is alive, and soil microorganisms are the driving force of elemental biogeochemical cycling and the bridge linking above- and below-ground ecosystem interactions. The microbial ecology of soils has the potential to answer multiple questions that not only advance our basic understanding of ecological principles, but are also relevant for the present focal areas of the anthropogenic effects, ecosystem productivity and other applied subjects.
