Managing carbon input from crop straw in cropland ecosystems could increase soil organic
carbon (SOC) sequestration to achieve C neutrality and mitigate climate change. The …

Straw residue amendment and fertilization are the key global management strategies for
achieving more sustainable agriculture. However, the temporal changes in labile soil …

Understanding the change in chemical composition of crop residues during their
decomposition is crucial to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the effects of residue …

Managing above-ground plant carbon inputs can pave the way toward carbon neutrality and
mitigating climate change. Chemical complexity of plant residues largely controls carbon …

Returning crop residues is a possible practice for balancing soil carbon (C) loss. The
turnover rate of organic C from crop residues to soil C is dependent on soil microbial …

Quantifying residue carbon (C) incorporation into soil organic C (SOC) fractions, and
underpinning microbial community in the decomposition process of crop residues are …

Plant carbon (C) inputs and their subsequent microbial transformation affect the build-up
process of soil organic C (SOC) pool. Nevertheless, there are knowledge gaps on how crop …

Slow organic material and nutrient turnover is one of the limiting processes in arid and
semiarid ecosystems, and cellulose decomposers play an important role in straw turnover …

Plant residue decomposition is central to soil organic matter formation. Fungi, bacteria, and
archaea are all well-known agents of residue decomposition. However, their relative …

Fungi play an important role in the accumulation and transformation of soil organic matter
(SOM) and nutrient cycling. To investigate the relationship between the fungal community …
