TLDR
It is concluded that the commercial formulation of glyphosate has a benign affect on community structure when applied at the recommended field rate, and produces a non-specific, short-term stimulation of bacteria at a high concentration.About:

Resistance, resilience, and redundancy in microbial communities
TL;DR: It is found that the composition of most microbial groups is sensitive and not immediately resilient to disturbance, regardless of taxonomic breadth of the group or the type of disturbance, and a simple framework to incorporate microbial community composition into ecosystem process models is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fate of glyphosate in soil and the possibility of leaching to ground and surface waters: a review.
TL;DR: The aim of this review is to present and discuss the state of knowledge on sorption, degradation and leachability of glyphosate in soils, which suggests that glyphosate leaching seems mainly determined by soil structure and rainfall.

TL;DR: It is shown experimentally that increasing the number of simultaneous global change factors caused increasing directional changes in soil properties, soil processes, and microbial communities, though there was greater uncertainty in predicting the magnitude of change.

Direct and Indirect Effects of Invasive Plants on Soil Chemistry and Ecosystem Function
TL;DR: The literature indicates that invasive species can alter the biogeochemistry of ecosystems, that secondary metabolites released by invasive species may play important roles in soil chemistry as well as plant-plant and plant-microbe interactions, and that the herbicides used to control invasive speciesCan impact plant chemistry and ecosystems in ways that have yet to be fully explored.

Factors affecting soil microbial community structure in tomato cropping systems
TL;DR: The imposed treatments were much more significant than soil temperature, moisture, pH, and texture in controlling microbial biomass and community structure in a tomato production agroecosystem.

The use of phospholipid fatty acid analysis to estimate bacterial and fungal biomass in soil
Åsa Frostegård,Erland Bååth +1 more
TL;DR: The cell content of 12 bacterial phospholipid fatty acids (PLFA) was determined in bacteria extracted from soil by homogenization/centrifugation and the soil content of the PLFA 18:2ω6 was correlated with the ergosterol content, which supports the use of this PLFA as an indicator of fungal biomass.

Classification and characterization of heterotrophic microbial communities on the basis of patterns of community-level sole-carbon-source utilization.
Jay L. Garland,Aaron L. Mills +1 more
TL;DR: Intensive spatial and temporal analysis of microbial communities with this technique can produce ecologically relevant classifications of heterotrophic microbial communities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phospholipid Fatty Acid composition, biomass, and activity of microbial communities from two soil types experimentally exposed to different heavy metals.
TL;DR: Effects on the PLFA patterns were found at levels of metal contamination similar to or lower than those at which effects on ATP content, soil respiration, or total amount of PLFAs had occurred.
