This project investigates the role of dormant microorganisms in soil ecosystems, focusing on how environmental cues can activate these microbes to perform essential functions. By analyzing microbial dynamics and genetics, it aims to enhance understanding of ecosystem stability and microbial diversity.
Soils are considered the last scientific frontiers that harbor one of the most diverse microbial communities on Earth.
It is hypothesized that this diversity allows for redundancy in microbial key processes, thereby ensuring ecosystem stability.
Much of this functional redundancy is embodied in non-active, dormant microorganisms that represent the ‘microbial seed bank’, which is characterized by a high number of low abundant taxa.
Based on the recent theory of a ‘dynamic rank-abundance curve’, i…
