Microbes as engines of ecosystem function: When does community structure enhance predictions of ecosystem processes?

Emily B. Graham, +52 more
TL;DR: In this article, a statistical analysis investigating the value of environmental data and microbial community structure independently and in combination for explaining rates of carbon and nitrogen cycling processes within 82 global datasets is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibiotic resistance, antimicrobial residues and bacterial community composition in urban wastewater.

TL;DR: A relationship between antibiotic residues, bacterial community structure and composition and antibiotic resistance is demonstrated and further studies, involving more wastewater treatment plants may help to elucidate this complex relationship.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wastewater reuse in irrigation: a microbiological perspective on implications in soil fertility and human and environmental health.

TL;DR: The maintenance of a rich and diversified autochthonous soil microbiota and the use of treated wastewater with minimal levels of potential soil contaminants are proposed as sine qua non conditions to achieve a sustainable wastewater reuse for irrigation.
