Soil nitrogen (N) often limits productivity in agroecosystems, prompting fertilizer applications
that increase crop yields but can degrade the environment. Nitrogen's dual role in both …

Soil organic nitrogen (N) is a critical resource for plants and microbes, but the processes that
govern its cycle are not well-described. To promote a holistic understanding of soil N …

Soil nitrogen mineralisation (Nmin), the conversion of organic into inorganic N, is important
for productivity and nutrient cycling. The balance between mineralisation and immobilisation …

The use of nitrogen (N) in fertilizer has doubled the amount of reactive N in the biosphere,
leading to increased greenhouse‐gas emissions and nutrient enrichment in aquatic and …

Soil net nitrogen mineralization rate (Nmin), which is critical for soil nitrogen availability and
plant growth, is thought to be primarily controlled by climate and soil physical and/or …

Fertilization and rhizosphere selection are key regulators for soil nitrogen (N) cycling and
microbiome. Thus, clarifying how the overall N cycling processes and soil microbiome …

Abstract Since the Green Revolution, world agriculture has relied heavily on agrochemical
inputs (synthetic fertilizers and pesticides) in cereal-and oilseed-dominated monoculture …

Nitrogen balance in agroecosystems provides a quantitative framework of N inputs and
outputs and retention in the soil that examines the sustainability of agricultural productivity …

Nitrogen (N) deposition is a serious environmental issue for soil fertility and human
wellbeing. Studies on various terrestrial ecosystems yielded fragmented information on soil …

Until recently, the common view of the terrestrial nitrogen cycle had been driven by two core
assumptions—plants use only inorganic N and they compete poorly against soil microbes …
