Fungi are dominant ecological participants in the forest ecosystems, which play a major role
in recycling organic matter and channeling nutrients across trophic levels. Fungal …

Biochar combined with chemical fertilizer have been proven to be effective in improving soil
fertility and crop yield. However, the effects of biochar-based fertilizer on yield, quality of tea …

Chytridiomycota (zoosporic true fungi) have a consistent presence in soils and have been
frequently identified within many diverse terrestrial environments. However, Chytridiomycota …

Soil microbes act as “players” in regulating biogeochemical cycles, whereas environmental
heterogeneity drives microbial community assembly patterns and is influenced by stochastic …

Trees associating with different mycorrhizas often differ in their effects on litter
decomposition, nutrient cycling, soil organic matter (SOM) dynamics, and plant-soil …

The effect of excess sludge and food waste feeding ratio on the co-composting process was
explored using 5% bagasse biochar as an additive and conditioner. Results showed that …

Soil microbial communities play an important role in maintaining the ecosystem during forest
secondary succession. However, the underlying mechanisms that drive change in soil …

The chemical traits of litter are among the most critical factors that affect its decomposition.
During vegetation restoration of planted forests, increasing age of the planted species and …

Plant communities and soil microbiomes play a crucial role in regulating ecosystem
multifunctionality (EMF). However, whether and how aboveground plant diversity …

Forest productivity and carbon (C) sequestration largely depend on soil N and P availability.
To date, however, the temporal variation of nutrient limitation along forest succession is still …
