Microbes in the Changing Environment

Microbes are everywhere in the biosphere, and their presence invariably affects the nature that they are growing in. The effects of microorganisms on their environment can be beneficial or injurious or inapparent with regard to human measure or observation. Beneficial microbes like rhizobacteria and mycorrhizal fungi can help plants to ‘deal’ with pathogens and herbivorous insects as well as to tolerate abiotic stress. Therefore, beneficial microbes may play an important role in a changing environment, where abiotic and biotic stresses on plants are expected to increase.
 
Microbes are involved in various processes, such as the carbon and nitrogen cycles, and are responsible for both the production and consumption of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane. Microbes could have many positive and negative feedback responses to temperature.  The reason is that microbes live in very diverse communities that interact with other organisms and the environment in complicated ways, which makes it difficult to make predictions about the effects of microbes on climate change.
