Soils have been called the most complex microbial ecosystems on
Earth. A single gram of soil can harbor millions of microbial cells
and thousands of species. However, certain soil environments, such
as those experiencing dramatic change exposing new initial soils or
that are limited in precipitation, limit the number of species able
to survive in these systems. In this respect, these environments
offer unparalleled opportunities to uncover the factors that
control the development and maintenance of complex microbial
ecosystems. This book collects chapters that discuss the abiotic
factors that structure arid and initial soil communities as well as
the diversity and structure of the biological communities in these
soils from viruses to plants.
