TL;DR: As the most comprehensive survey of soil taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional diversity to date, this study demonstrates that metagenomic approaches can be used to build a predictive understanding of how microbial diversity and function vary across terrestrial biomes.

TL;DR: High-resolution spatial maps of the global abundance of soil nematodes and the composition of functional groups show that soil nematode are found in higher abundances in sub-Arctic regions, than in temperate or tropical regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diversity and distribution of Victoria Land biota

Fell,Francesco Frati,Ian D. Hogg,Kevin K. Newsham,Anthony G. O'Donnell,Nicholas J. Russell,Rodney D. Seppelt,Mark I. Stevens +18 more
TL;DR: The soil ecosystems of Victoria Land (VL) Antarctica should play a major role in exploring the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, and in monitoring the effects of environmental change on soil processes in real time and space.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Entomopathogenic Nematode by Any Other Name
Adler R. Dillman,John M. Chaston,Byron J. Adams,Todd A. Ciche,Heidi Goodrich-Blair,S. Patricia Stock,Paul W. Sternberg +6 more
TL;DR: It is argued that EPNs must rapidly kill their hosts with the aid of bacterial partners and must pass on the associated bacteria to future generations and clarify the meaning of “entomopathogenic” in nematology.
