The impacts of the discontinuation of dual nomenclature of pleomorphic fungi: the trivial facts, problems, and strategies by U. Braun

“…It is up to the taxonomist to select appropriate methods and to decide which data are sufficient to introduce new taxa. Some future problems and strategies around the application of anamorph- and teleomoph-typified taxon names (genera and species), are discussed here, using the recently monographed powdery mildews (Erysiphales) as an example.…”

Long journey of 16S rRNA‐amplicon sequencing toward cell‐based functional bacterial microbiota characterization by Jianshi Jin, Xiongduo Liu, Katsuyuki Shiroguchi

“…Abstract Bacteria often exist and function as a community, known as the bacterial microbiota, which consists of vast numbers of bacteria belonging to many bacterial species (taxa). Characterizing the bacterial microbiota needs high‐throughput approaches that enable the identification and quantification of many bacterial cells, and such approaches have been under development for more than 30 years. …”

Effects of Grazing Intensity on Microbial Diversity at Different Soil Depths in Desert Steppe Soils by Yuxin Wang, Xin Ju, Qian Wu, Guodong Han

“…CK and LG treatments supported higher microbial diversity, especially in surface layers, while heavy grazing was associated with a shift in community composition toward stress-tolerant taxa like Acidobacteriota and Blastocatella. Non-metric multidimensional scaling analysis revealed differences in microbial community structure between soil depths, with the effects of grazing diminishing with depth. …”
