Soil ecology examines the complex interactions among soil organisms—including bacteria, fungi, and other microbes—and their physical and chemical environment. For plant science, these relationships are fundamental: soil communities drive nutrient cycling, influence root health, and shape the availability of essential minerals that determine plant growth and survival. Understanding soil biodiversity and aggregate formation helps researchers develop sustainable approaches to agriculture and ecosystem management.
