Trait-based meta-analysis of microbial guilds in the iron redox cycle
Medicina e TecnologiaResumo original em inglês
O que aconteceu
Iron redox reactions shape nutrient turnover, contaminant mobility, and primary productivity, yet the microbes driving these processes are often studied in isolation. By integrating decades of data into a trait-based guild framework, we reveal the ecophysiological diversity and niche differentiation of microbial iron redox cycling taxa across environments. Our synthesis exposes major gaps, such as limited trait data for >80% of dual-capacity Fe oxidizing/reducing species and highlights the need for functional trait surveys to complement metagenomics and cultivation efforts. The guild framework presented here advances predictive microbial ecology by linking metabolic traits with environmental gradients, offering a robust foundation for incorporating iron cycling into ecosystem models and biogeochemical forecasts.
