  1. ncbi Growth of saprotrophic fungi and bacteria in soil
    Johannes Rousk
    Microbial Ecology, Department of Biology, Ecology Building, Lund University, Lund, Sweden
    FEMS Microbiol Ecol 78:17-30. 2011
    ..Finally, we predict that growth methods will be an important complement to molecular approaches to elucidate fungal and bacterial ecology, and we identify methodological concerns and how they should be addressed...
  2. ncbi Fungal and bacterial growth responses to N fertilization and pH in the 150-year 'Park Grass' UK grassland experiment
    Johannes Rousk
    Microbial Ecology, Department of Biology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden
    FEMS Microbiol Ecol 76:89-99. 2011
    ..There are 30-50-fold increases in the relative importance of fungi between high (7.4-8.3) and low (3.3-4.5) pH with concomitant reductions of respiration by 30-70%...
  3. ncbi Lack of correlation between turnover of low-molecular-weight dissolved organic carbon and differences in microbial community composition or growth across a soil pH gradient
    Johannes Rousk
    Environment Centre Wales, Bangor University, Bangor LL57 2UW, United Kingdom
    Appl Environ Microbiol 77:2791-5. 2011
    ..In contrast, the microbial community compositions differed dramatically. This suggests that microbial community composition data will be of limited use in improving the predictive power of soil C models...
  4. ncbi Soil bacterial and fungal communities across a pH gradient in an arable soil
    Johannes Rousk
    Department of Microbial Ecology, Lund University, Ecology Building, Lund, Sweden
    ISME J 4:1340-51. 2010
    ..Fungal community composition was less strongly affected by pH, which is consistent with pure culture studies, demonstrating that fungi generally exhibit wider pH ranges for optimal growth...
  5. ncbi Fungal and bacterial growth in soil with plant materials of different C/N ratios
    Johannes Rousk
    Department of Microbial Ecology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden
    FEMS Microbiol Ecol 62:258-67. 2007

    Johannes Rousk
    Department of Microbial Ecology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden

    Johannes Rousk
    Environment Centre Wales, Bangor University, Gwynedd, United Kingdom
    PLoS ONE 7:e34197. 2012
