[HTML][HTML] Surplus carbon drives allocation and plant–soil interactions
Plant growth is usually constrained by the availability of nutrients, water, or temperature,
rather than photosynthetic carbon (C) fixation. Under these conditions leaf growth is …

Forest soil bacteria: diversity, involvement in ecosystem processes, and response to global change
The ecology of forest soils is an important field of research due to the role of forests as
carbon sinks. Consequently, a significant amount of information has been accumulated …

The application of ecological stoichiometry to plant–microbial–soil organic matter transformations
Elemental stoichiometry constitutes an inherent link between biogeochemistry and the
structure and processes within food webs, and thus is at the core of ecosystem functioning …

How does management affect soil C sequestration and greenhouse gas fluxes in boreal and temperate forests?–A review
The global forest carbon (C) stock is estimated at 662 Gt of which 45% is in soil organic
matter. Thus, comprehensive understanding of the effects of forest management practices on …

Revisiting the 'Gadgil effect': do interguild fungal interactions control carbon cycling in forest soils?
In forest ecosystems, ectomycorrhizal and saprotrophic fungi play a central role in the
breakdown of soil organic matter (SOM). Competition between these two fungal guilds has …

Microbial activity in forest soil reflects the changes in ecosystem properties between summer and winter
Understanding the ecology of coniferous forests is very important because these
environments represent globally largest carbon sinks. Metatranscriptomics, microbial …

Carbon limitation overrides acidification in mediating soil microbial activity to nitrogen enrichment in a temperate grassland
Higher ecosystem nitrogen (N) inputs resulting from human activities often suppress soil
microbial biomass and respiration, thereby altering biogeochemical cycling. Soil …

Exploring the role of ectomycorrhizal fungi in soil carbon dynamics
The extent to which ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi enable plants to access organic nitrogen
(N) bound in soil organic matter (SOM) and transfer this growth‐limiting nutrient to their plant …

Atmospheric nitrogen deposition impacts on the structure and function of forest mycorrhizal communities: a review
Humans have dramatically increased atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition globally. At the
coarsest resolution, N deposition is correlated with shifts from ectomycorrhizal (EcM) to …
