When very dry soil is rewet, rapid stimulation of microbial activity has important implications for ecosystem biogeochemistry, yet associated changes in microbial transcription are poorly known. Here, we present metatranscriptomes of California annual grassland soil microbial communities, collected over 1 week from soils rewet after a summer drought-providing a time series of short-term transcriptional response during rewetting.
