Locally heterogeneous soil viral and prokaryotic responses to prescribed burn correspond with patchy burn severity in a mixed conifer forest

Sara E. Geonczy, Luke S. Hillary, Christian Santos‐Medellín…·Joanne Emerson

The paper examines how soil viral and prokaryotic communities respond to prescribed burns, finding that local burn severity drives heterogeneous responses.

Exploring viral particle, soil, and extraction buffer physicochemical characteristics and their impacts on extractable viral communities

J. D. Fudyma, Anneliek M. ter Horst, Christian Santos‐Medellín…·Joanne Emerson

This study examines how extraction buffer chemistry affects extractable viral communities in different soil types, finding that spatial distance is the primary driver of community composition.
