  • Microbial anhydrobiosis 
    Bosch, Jason; Varliero, Gilda; Hallsworth, John E.; Dallas, Tiffany D.; Hopkins, David; Frey, Beat; Kong, Weidong; Lebre, Pedro H.; Makhalanyane, Thulani Peter; Cowan, Don A. (Wiley, 2021-11)
    The loss of cellular water (desiccation) and the resulting low cytosolic water activity are major stress factors for life. Numerous prokaryotic and eukaryotic taxa have evolved molecular and physiological adaptions to ...
  • Shotgun metagenomics of deep forest soil layers show evidence of altered microbial genetic potential for biogeochemical cycling 
    Frey, Beat; Varliero, Gilda; Qi, Weihong; Stierli, Beat; Walthert, Lorenz; Brunner, Ivano (Frontiers Media S.A., 2022-03-01)
    Soil microorganisms such as Bacteria and Archaea play important roles in the biogeochemical cycling of soil nutrients, because they act as decomposers or are mutualistic or antagonistic symbionts, thereby influencing ...
  • Shotgun metagenomics reveals distinct functional diversity and metabolic capabilities between 12 000-year- old permafrost and active layers on Muot da Barba Peider (Swiss Alps) 
    Perez-Mon, Carla; Qi, Weihong; Vikram, Surendra; Frossard, Aline; Makhalanyane, Thulani Peter; Cowan, Don A.; Frey, Beat (Microbiology Society, 2021-04-13)
    The warming-induced thawing of permafrost promotes microbial activity, often resulting in enhanced greenhouse gas emissions. The ability of permafrost microorganisms to survive the in situ sub-zero temperatures, their ...
  • Soil net nitrogen mineralisation across global grasslands 
    Risch, A.C.; Zimmermann, S.; Ochoa-Hueso, R.; Schutz, M.; Frey, Beat; Firn, J.L.; Fay, P.A.; Hagedorn, F.; Borer, E.T.; Seabloom, E.W.; Harpole, W.S.; Knops, Johannes M.H.; McCulley, R.L.; Broadbent, A.A.D.; Stevens, C.J.; Silveira, M.L.; Adler, P.B.; Baez, S.; Biederman, L.A.; Blair, J.M.; Brown, C.S.; Caldeira, M.C.; Collins, S.L.; Daleo, P.; Di Virgilio, A.; Ebeling, A.; Eisenhauer, N.; Esch, E.; Eskelinen, A.; Hagenah, Nicole; Hautier, Y.; Kirkman, K.P.; MacDougall, A.S.; Moore, J.L.; Power, S.A.; Prober, S.M.; Roscher, C.; Sankaran, M.; Siebert, J.; Speziale, K.L.; Tognetti, P.M.; Virtanen, R.; Yahdjian, L.; Moser, B. (Nature Research, 2019-10)
    Soil nitrogen mineralisation (Nmin), the conversion of organic into inorganic N, is important for productivity and nutrient cycling. The balance between mineralisation and immobilisation (net Nmin) varies with soil ...
