Root carbon interaction with soil minerals is dynamic, leaving a legacy of microbially-derived residues

R. A. Neurath, J. Pett-Ridge, I. Chu-Jacoby, D. J. Herman, T. Whitman, P. S. Nico, A. S. Lipton, J. Kyle, M. M. Tfaily, A. Thompson, M. K. Firestone

The paper investigates how plant-derived carbon interacts with soil minerals and microbial activity, finding that rhizosphere conditions shape the chemistry of mineral-associated organic matter.

Routes to Roots: Direct Evidence of Water Transport by Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi to Host Plants

A. Kakouridis, J. A. Hagen, M. P. Kan, S. Mambelli, L. J. Feldman, D. J. Herman, J. Pett-Ridge, M. K. Firestone

The paper directly tracks and quantifies water transport by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to host plants using isotopically-labeled water and a fluorescent dye in a greenhouse experiment.

Microbial extracellular polysaccharide production and aggregate stability controlled by Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) root biomass and soil water potential

Y. Sher, N. R. Baker, D. J. Herman, C. Fossum, L. Hale, X.-X. Zhang, E. E. Nuccio, M. C. Saha, J. Zhou, J. Pett-Ridge, M. K. Firestone

This study shows switchgrass cultivation increases microbial extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) production and water-stable soil aggregates in marginal soils, driven by root biomass and soil water potential.

Stable isotope informed genome-resolved metagenomics reveals that Saccharibacteria utilize microbially processed plant derived carbon

E. P. Starr, S. Shi, S. J. Blazewicz, A. J. Probst, D. J. Herman, M. A. Firestone, J. F. Banfield

The paper identifies a Saccharibacteria genome in rhizosphere soil that relies on externally-derived nucleotides and utilizes plant-derived carbon through fermentation and potential aerobic respiration.
