Perspectives on Functional Red Mold Rice: Functional Ingredients, Production, and Application.

abstract：:Arid and semi-arid regions comprise nearly one-fifth of the earth's terrestrial surface. However, the diversities and functions of their soil microbial communities are not well understood, despite microbial ecological importance in driving biogeochemical cycling. Here, we analyzed the geochemistry and microbial commun...
