Quantitative stable-isotope probing (qSIP) with metagenomics links microbial physiology and activity to soil moisture in Mediterranean-climate grassland ecosystems

A. Greenlon, E. T. Sieradzki, O. Zablocki, B. J. Koch, M. M. Foley, J. A. Kimbrel, B. A. Hungate, S. J. Blazewicz, E. E. Nuccio, C. L. Sun, A. Chew, C.-J. Mancilla, M. B. Sullivan, M. K. Firestone, J. Pett-Ridge, J. F. Banfield

This study uses qSIP with metagenomics to link microbial activity and physiology to soil moisture in Mediterranean grasslands, finding that precipitation levels influence microbial growth and phage dynamics.

Active communities and growth of soil microorganisms are framed by mean annual precipitation in three California annual grasslands

M. M. Foley, S. J. Blazewicz, K. J. McFarlane, A. Greenlon, M. Hayer, J. A. Kimbrel, B. J. Koch, V. Monsaint-Queeney, K. Morrison, E. M. Morrissey, B. A. Hungate, J. Pett-Ridge

The paper examines how mean annual precipitation affects microbial community growth and soil carbon cycling in three California grasslands, finding that growth rates and community composition vary with precipitation.

The Functional Significance of Bacterial Predators

B. A. Hungate, J. C. Marks, M. E. Power, E. Schwartz, K. J. van Groenigen, S. J. Blazewicz, P. F. Chuckran, P. Dijkstra, B. K. Finley, M. K. Firestone, M. M. Foley, A. Greenlon, M. Hayer, K. Hofmockel, B. J. Koch, , J. Pett-Ridge

This study quantifies the growth and carbon assimilation rates of predatory bacteria across 15 sites, showing obligate predators grow faster and assimilate more carbon than non-predatory bacteria.
