Killing soil microorganisms is a deleterious impact of slash and burn agricultural methods.

Degradation by soil microorganisms has not been described.

There are plenty of soil microorganisms to break it down and enrich the soil.

Peggys, like Earth, had in its soil microorganisms that could live on a diet of pure hydrocarbons.

This effect is probably due to the absence of unfavorable soil conditions or soil microorganisms that exist in its native environment.

In addition to plant roots, most forms of soil microorganisms need oxygen to survive.

The compounds are removed primarily by soil microorganisms.

The oxygen and water transported by the roots allows for greater growth of beneficial soil microorganisms.

Mineral weathering can also be initiated and/or accelerated by soil microorganisms.

They call for additional research to develop more information on soil microorganisms and their interactions.
