Soil microorganisms, by actively participating in the decomposition and transformation of
organic matter through diverse metabolic pathways, play a pivotal role in carbon cycling …

Conventional farming practices can lead to soil degradation and a decline in productivity.
Regenerative agriculture (RA) is purported by advocates as a solution to these issues that …

Priming of soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition by microorganisms is a key
phenomenon of global carbon (C) cycling. Soil pH is a main factor defining priming effects …

The impact of increasing amounts of labile C input on priming effects (PE) on soil organic
matter (SOM) mineralization remains unclear, particularly under anoxic conditions and …

Priming plays important roles in terrestrial carbon cycling, but the patterns and drivers of
priming and its responses to nutrient addition in tropical forests remain unclear. By collecting …

Efforts to increase soil organic carbon (SOC) are pursued as a viable climate change
mitigation strategy. Boosting SOC stocks requires increasing plant carbon (C) inputs and …

Crop residue retention (RR) is a recommended practice in China and globally. However,
comprehensive assessment of changes and mechanisms affecting crop production and soil …

Most of our terrestrial carbon (C) storage occurs in soils as organic C derived from living
organisms. Therefore, the fate of soil organic C (SOC) in response to changes in climate …

Microbial activities are the dynamic core in the soil nutrient cycle. To improve the
knowledges about the responses of soil microbial community structure and potential function …

Organic materials are integral to the soil carbon cycle in agricultural ecosystems, yet their
specific impacts on soil organic carbon (SOC) and microbial diversity are not fully …
