Experimental Warming Alters Nitrogen Cycle in a Humid Tropical Forest

Parker M. Bartz, Iana F. Grullón‐Penkova, Molly A. Cavaleri, Sasha C. Reed, Saima Shahid, Tana E. Wood, Bénédicte Bachelot

This study shows that experimental warming increases nitrogen fixation rates in soil and leaf litter of a tropical forest, altering microbial communities and tree dynamics.

Legacy of warming and microbial treatments shape root exudates and rhizosphere fungal communities of a tropical tree

Joel Okoyo Masanga, Parker M. Bartz, Gabriela Hernandes Villani, Iana F. Grullón‐Penkova, Bénédicte Bachelot, Jesse R. Lasky

The paper investigates how environmental changes and microbial treatments affect root exudates and fungal communities in a tropical tree, finding that soil microbial legacy and moisture influence metabolite diversity, while antimicrobial treatments alter metabolite composition and fungal community structure.

Tropical Forest Soil Microbiome Modulates Leaf Heat Tolerance More Strongly Under Warming than Ambient Conditions

Gabriela Hernandes Villani, Iana F. Grullón‐Penkova, Parker M. Bartz, Joel Okoyo Masanga, Jesse R. Lasky, Sasha C Reed, Molly A. Cavaleri, Tana E. Wood, Bénédicte Bachelot

This study shows that soil microbiome changes under warming conditions significantly affect leaf heat tolerance in tropical plants, with fungal pathogens playing a key role.
