Clarifying the evidence for microbial‐and plant‐derived soil organic matter, and the path toward a more quantitative understanding
Predicting and mitigating changes in soil carbon (C) stocks under global change requires a
coherent understanding of the factors regulating soil organic matter (SOM) formation and …

Microbial interactions for nutrient acquisition in soil: miners, scavengers, and carriers
T Cao, Y Luo, M Shi, X Tian, Y Kuzyakov - Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2024 - Elsevier
Microbial interactions in soil are hidden, as they occur stealthily in a 'dark box'. This greatly
limits our understanding of microbial functions. Here, soil microorganisms were classified …

Changes in plant inputs alter soil carbon and microbial communities in forest ecosystems
Global changes can alter plant inputs from both above‐and belowground, which, thus, may
differently affect soil carbon and microbial communities. However, the general patterns of …
