Carbon and nutrient inputs are required to stimulate the formation and mineralization of soil
organic carbon (SOC) through processes related to microbial growth and priming effects …

Irrigated and rain-fed rice fields are unique agroecosystems and anthropogenic wetlands
whose main feature is seasonal flooding. Flooded soils are characterized by spatiotemporal …

Water-fertilizer coupling technology has emerged as a pivotal strategy in modern agriculture,
recognized for its potential to enhance soil environmental quality, promote crop growth, and …

Habitats with intermittent flooding, such as paddy soils, are crucial reservoirs in the global
carbon pool; however, the effect of phage–host interactions on the biogeochemical cycling …

The input of microplastics (MPs) and warming interfere with soil carbon (C) or nitrogen (N)
cycles. Although the effects of warming and/or MPs on the cycles have been well studied …

Improper water and nitrogen supply can lead to resource loss, soil quality deterioration, low
nutrient effectiveness, and decreased fruit yield and quality in apple orchards. To investigate …

Reclamation has been widely used to alleviate the degradation of cultivated upland and
support the increasing grain demand. However, the response of soil ecosystem functioning …

Microplastics (MPs) can affect soil organic carbon (C) cycling in paddy soil by changing
microbial function and soil properties. In this study, a laboratory incubation experiment was …

Soil microbial residues have an impact on the stability of the soil organic carbon (SOC) pool,
since they are crucial and stable sources of SOC. However, it is not clear how soil microbial …

Abstract Context or Problem Numerous studies have demonstrated that biochar application
can increase crop yield by improving soil properties and health. Yet, these studies, however …
