“…While soil microorganisms are the most diverse and most abundant organisms on the planet and are crucial drivers of a wide range of ecosystem functions (Singh et al ., 2010), the consequences of belowground microbial diversity loss for belowground ecosystem functions are not well understood. This is critical given the numerous anthropogenic threats to soil biodiversity (Wagg et al ., 2014, Cavicchioli et al ., 2019, Gallego et al ., 2021, Gallego and Martin-Laurent, 2020, Zak et al ., 2003). A belowground ecosystem function that is increasingly more studied due to its relevance for the climate system is soil carbon (C) cycling (Cavicchioli et al ., 2019, Domeignoz-Horta et al ., 2022, Cappelli et al ., 2022).…”

Biodiversity loss and climate change are two of the most alarming threats to ecosystem functioning and stability. These factors are, however, typically investigated separately, overlooking potential interactions between species extinctions and climate change on ecosystems. Here, we evaluated how different temperature regimes impact the relationship between microbial diversity and ecosystem functioning, in terms of temperature sensitivity of carbon (C) cycling functions. We hypothesized that more diverse soil communities promote the stability of C cycling functions under both temperature regimes. We did not observe a ubiquitous response of all C-cycling processes to temperature increases within the distinct community diversities. While growth was stable with increasing temperatures among the diversity levels, respiration rates increased more strongly at low diversity levels than high diversity levels at higher temperatures. Carbon use efficiency, which integrates both growth and respiration, tended to decrease with temperature at lower levels of diversity. Jointly, these results demonstrate the importance of belowground soil community diversity for maintaining C-cycling thermal response under changing climate.

“…Cycoń et al (2019) reviewed that antibiotics affect soil microorganisms by altering their biomass and the relative abundance as well as altering their enzyme activity and ability to metabolize diverse carbon sources. Soil bacterial and fungal community play key role in soil eco-services (Gallego andMartin-Laurent, 2021, Amoo et al, 2021). Hence, this study investigates the effect of pharmaceutical effluents on soil microbiome and physicochemical parameters of soil samples obtained in Ugbowo, Benin City, Nigeria.…”

Soil contamination from pharmaceuticals is an evolving issue, consequently measurable data on their microbial effects are deficient. Thus, this study investigated the effects of pharmaceutical effluents on soil microbiome and the physicochemical parameters of soil samples obtained from Ugbowo, Benin City, Nigeria using standard procedures. The experiment which lasted for four weeks consists of four treatments of soil samples with pharmaceutical effluents of different percentages and one soil sample without pharmaceutical effluents (control). These include: soil treated with 250 ml of pharmaceutical effluents (25%); soil treated with 500 ml of pharmaceutical effluents (50%); soil treated with 750 ml of pharmaceutical effluents (75%), soil treated with 1000 ml of pharmaceutical effluents (100%) and soil treated without pharmaceutical effluents (0%). There was significant increase in the soil microbial counts in all effluent treatments compared to the control soil. A total of 16 isolates were identified. Ten were isolates belonging to the genera Bacillus, Arthrobacter, Proteus, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, Escherichia, Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Streptococcus, and Chromobacterium, while Fusarium sp., Mucor sp., Saccharomyces sp., Aspergillus niger, Rhizopus sp. and Penicillium sp. were the observed fungal isolates. The mean values of the soil physicochemical properties were all significantly higher in the treated groups compared to the control. This study revealed that pharmaceutical effluents altered the soil microbiological and physicochemical properties. The possibility of these alterations was due to the high nutrient content of the effluent which enriched the soil with additional nutrients needed for microbial growth.
