Soil carbon transformation and sequestration have received significant interest in recent years due to a growing need for quantitating its role mitigating climate change. Even though our understanding of the nature soil organic matter has recently been substantially revised, fundamental uncertainty remains about quantitative importance microbial necromass as part persistent matter. Addressing this hampered by absence assessments whether makes up majority soil. Direct quantitation is very...
The means through which microbes and plants contribute to soil organic carbon (SOC) accumulation remain elusive due challenges in disentangling the complex components of SOC. Here we use amino sugars lignin phenols as tracers for microbial necromass plant components, respectively, investigate their distribution surface soils across Mongolian grasslands comparison with published data other grassland world. While decrease, increase SOC contents all examined soils, providing continental-scale...
Biochar amendments have been widely proposed as a conventional and efficient strategy to promote soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration via negative priming. Unfortunately, the extent biological mechanisms responsible for biochar-induced priming are still not fully understood. Despite traditional explanations focused on environmental filtering of biochar microbial biomass community composition underlying effect SOC dynamics, whether how competitive interaction with keystone taxa determines...
Abstract The global soil carbon (C) pool is massive, so relatively small changes in organic (SOC) stocks can significantly alter atmospheric C and climate. recently proposed concept of the microbial pump (MCP) emphasizes active role microbes SOC storage by integrating continual transformation from labile to persistent anabolic forms. However, has not been evaluated with data. Here, we combine datasets, including necromass biomarker amino sugars SOC, two long‐term agricultural field studies...
Abstract Forest soils store large amounts of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N), yet how predicted shifts in forest composition will impact long‐term C N persistence remains poorly understood. A recent hypothesis predicts that under trees associated with arbuscular mycorrhizas ( AM ) less than dominated by ectomycorrhizas ECM ), due to slower decomposition ‐dominated forests. However, an incipient systems rapid decomposition—e.g. most forests—enhance soil organic matter SOM stabilization...
Abstract Conceptual and empirical advances in soil biogeochemistry have challenged long-held assumptions about the role of micro-organisms organic carbon (SOC) dynamics; yet, rigorous tests emerging concepts remain sparse. Recent hypotheses suggest that microbial necromass production links plant inputs to SOC accumulation, with high-quality (i.e., rapidly decomposing) litter promoting use efficiency, growth, turnover leading more mineral stabilization necromass. We test this hypothesis...
We have provided a framework to better understand the mechanisms governing balance between stochastic and deterministic processes integrate shifts in community assembly with microbial carbon metabolism. Our study reinforced that environmental filtering bacterial cooccurrence patterns influence stochastic/deterministic continuum of soil stochasticity may act through deeper layers Delineating theoretically potential linkages SOC dynamics across broad range systems represents an interesting...
Microbial necromass carbon (C) has been considered an important contributor to persistent soil C pool. However, there still lacks large-scale systematic observations on microbial in different layers, particularly for alpine ecosystems. Besides, it is unclear whether the relative importance of biotic and abiotic variables such as plant input mineral properties regulating would change with depth. Based combination sampling along a ~2200 km transect across Tibetan grasslands biomarker analysis,...
The organic matter of living plants is the precursor material stored in terrestrial soil ecosystems. Although a great deal knowledge exists on carbon turnover processes plant material, some (SOM) formation, particular from microbial necromass, are still not fully understood. Recent research showed that larger part original converted into biomass, while remaining modified by extracellular enzymes microbes. At end its life, biomass contributes to molecular imprint SOM as necromass with...
Intensive crop production on grassland-derived Mollisols has liberated massive amounts of carbon (C) to the atmosphere. Whether minimizing soil disturbance, diversifying rotations, or re-establishing perennial grasslands and integrating livestock can slow reverse this trend remains highly uncertain. We investigated how these management practices affected organic (SOC) accrual distribution between particulate (POM) mineral-associated (MAOM) matter in a 29-y-old field experiment North Central...
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is the largest pool in terrestrial ecosystems and plays a crucial role mitigating climate change enhancing soil productivity. Microbial-derived (MDC) main component of persistent SOC pool. However, current formulas used to estimate proportional contribution MDC are plagued by uncertainties due limited sample sizes neglect bacterial group composition effects. Here, we compiled comprehensive global dataset employed machine learning approaches refine our quantitative...
