Microbial Diversity Reduction in Soil by Long-Term Climate Warming by Mayank Dave, Kartika Panwar, Itika Dadhich, Yagya Sharma, Anupriya Malodia, Nagaraju Shaik

“…Organisms exist in intricate communities with thousands of different species, some of which are beneficial, some of which are destructive, and others of which have no influence at all. Because natural communities are made up of organisms with widely disparate life histories and modes of change, it is improbable that they will all react in the same manner to changes in the environment. …”
