Grazing of protozoa on rhizosphere bacteria alters growth and reproduction of Arabidopsis thalina
Abstract Plant roots are densely colonized by bacteria which form the basis of the rhizosphere bacterial food web with protozoa as most effective predators....

Effects of soil decomposer invertebrates (protozoa and earthworms) on an above-ground phytophagous insect (cereal aphid) mediated through changes in the host plant
Abstract We investigated if the activity of soil invertebrates (protozoa and earthworms) affected the performance of barley and if effects propagated higher up the above-ground...

Soil protists: a fertile frontier in soil biology research
Abstract Protists include all eukaryotes except plants, fungi and animals. They are an essential, yet often forgotten, component of the soil microbiome. Method developments have...
-
The impact of protozoa addition on the survivability of Bacillus inoculants and soil microbiome dynamics
Protists’ selective predation of bacterial cells is an important regulator of soil microbiomes, which might influence the success of bacterial releases in soils. For instance,...
-
Protists as main indicators and determinants of plant performance
Background Microbiomes play vital roles in plant health and performance, and the development of plant beneficial microbiomes can be steered by organic fertilizer inputs. Especially...
-
Trophic interactions between predatory protists and pathogen-suppressive bacteria impact plant health
Plant health is strongly impacted by beneficial and pathogenic plant microbes, which are themselves structured by resource inputs. Organic fertilizer inputs may thus offer a...
-
Protist feeding patterns and growth rate are related to their predatory impacts on soil bacterial communities
Predatory protists are major consumers of soil micro-organisms. By selectively feeding on their prey, they can shape soil microbiome composition and functions. While different protists...

Biocontrol Traits Correlate With Resistance to Predation by Protists in Soil Pseudomonads
Root-colonizing bacteria can support plant growth and help fend off pathogens. It is clear that such bacteria benefit from plant-derived carbon, but it remains ambiguous...

Soil protists: a fertile frontier in soil biology research
Abstract Protists include all eukaryotes except plants, fungi and animals. They are an essential, yet often forgotten, component of the soil microbiome. Method developments have...

Substrate heterogeneity and microfauna in soil organic ‘hotspots’ as determinants of nitrogen capture and growth of ryegrass
Abstract In this study we simultaneously manipulated the patchiness of complex organic resources and the composition of microfaunal populations (protozoa and nematodes) in soil, to...

Interactions of bacteria, protozoa and plants leading to mineralization of soil nitrogen
Abstract The capacity of bacteria and protozoa to mineralize soil nitrogen was studied in microcosms with sterilized soil with or without wheat plants. The effect...

The “soil microbial loop” is not always needed to explain protozoan stimulation of plants
Abstract Protozoa stimulate plant growth, but we do not completely understand the underlying mechanisms, and different hypotheses seek to explain this phenomenon. To test these hypotheses,...

Protozoa enhance foraging efficiency of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi for mineral nitrogen from organic matter in soil to the benefit of host plants
Summary Dead organic matter (OM) is a major source of nitrogen (N) for plants. The majority of plants support N uptake by symbiosis with...

Litter quality as driving factor for plant nutrition via grazing of protozoa on soil microorganisms
Abstract Plant residues provide a major source of nitrogen (N) for plant growth. Litter N mineralization varies with litter carbon-to-nitrogen (C-to-N) ratio and presence of...
