The paper investigates how soil microenvironment and microbial community composition jointly influence carbon accrual in agricultural soils through a transplant experiment.

This study shows sponge-associated ammonia-oxidizing archaea use branched-chain amino acids as a carbon and nitrogen source, revealing a mixotrophic lifestyle and a new nutritional interaction in sponge holobionts.

This study identifies high richness and novel taxa of sulfoquinovose-degrading bacteria in cow rumen using yihQ-targeted amplicon sequencing and metagenomics.

Cyanate is a small but continuously available nitrogen source for soil microbes, contributing to a selective advantage of microorganisms capable of direct cyanate utilization.
