Journal ArticleDOI
Mineral weathering by bacteria: ecology, actors and mechanisms.
TL;DR: The ecological relevance of bacterial weathering, mainly in the soil and especially in acidic forest ecosystems, which strongly depend on mineral weathering for their sustainability are discussed and the potential applications of genomic resources to the study ofacterial weathering are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of the mycorrhizosphere on the genotypic and metabolic diversity of the bacterial communities involved in mineral weathering in a forest soil.
Stéphane Uroz,Christophe Calvaruso,Marie-Pierre Turpault,J-Claude Pierrat,Christian Mustin,Pascale Frey-Klett +5 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that by its carbon metabolism this fungus selects in the bulk soil reservoir a bacterial community with high weathering potential is supported, and the question of functional complementation between mycorrhizal fungi and bacteria in the ectomycorrhIZal complex for the promotion of tree nutrition is addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Root-Associated Bacteria Contribute to Mineral Weathering and to Mineral Nutrition in Trees: a Budgeting Analysis
TL;DR: It is proposed that the growth-promoting effect of B. glathei PML1(12) mainly resulted from the improved plant nutrition via increased mineral weathering, which was observed when the seedlings were supplied with all the nutrients necessary for pine growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of ectomycorrhizosphere on the functional diversity of soil bacterial and fungal communities from a forest stand in relation to nutrient mobilization processes.
TL;DR: This work highlights the consistency of the mycorrhizosphere effect on the functional diversity of bacterial and fungal communities in relation to the mineral weathering process, no matter the fungal symbiont, the age and species of the host tree, the environment (nursery vs forest).
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid Clay Weathering in the Rhizosphere of Norway Spruce and Oak in an Acid Forest Ecosystem
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the mineralogy of bulk and rhizosphere soils to assess the effect of roots on mineral weathering in a Typic Dystrochrept supporting Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst) and oak (Quercus sessilifl ora Smith).
