Studies on ecological stoichiometry (ES) have increased rapidly in number in recent years.
Continuous exploration of classical concepts such as the growth-rate hypothesis (GRH),) …

Heterotrophic nitrification is regarded as an eternal mystery in the nitrogen (N) cycle,
although it was first reported more than 100 years ago. In this review, we discuss microbial …

Soil aggregates are the key functional units of soil ecosystems which are essential to
biogeochemical cycling and plant growth. However, it remains unclear how fertilization …

Soil extracellular enzyme stoichiometry (EES), the ratio of extracellular enzyme activities
(EEAs) related to the acquisition of nutrients such as carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and …

Aim Ecoenzymatic stoichiometry provides a promising avenue for deciphering resource
constraints on soil microbial metabolism but is hampered by limitations in current modelling …

Forest soils contain a large amount of organic carbon and contribute to terrestrial carbon
sequestration. However, we still have a poor understanding of what nutrients limit soil …

An increasing number of studies utilize enzymatic C: N: P stoichiometry (Sinsabaugh et al.,
2009) to infer nutrient limitation of soil microorganisms (Feyissa et al., 2022, **e et al., 2022 …

Many studies have used the relative activities of extracellular enzymes associated with
microbial carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) acquisition to infer the relative C vs …

Recently, an increasing number of studies use ecoenzymatic stoichiometry for determining
nutritional status or nutrient limitations of microbes. According to the ecoenzymatic …

Soil enzymes produced by microorganisms transform substrates in the soil carbon (C) and
nutrient cycles. Limitations in C and other nutrients could affect microbial biosynthesis …
