Medicinal plants (MPs) are important resources widely used in the treatment and prevention
of diseases and have attracted much attention owing to their significant antiviral, anti …

Microbial necromass is a large and persistent component of soil organic carbon (SOC),
especially under croplands. The effects of cropland management on microbial necromass …

Increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) in croplands by switching from conventional to
conservation management may be hampered by stimulated microbial decomposition under …

Carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) inputs strongly influence the formation, turnover and
sequestration of soil organic carbon (SOC) in agricultural ecosystems. It is not clear …

Climate warming threatens global food security by exacerbating pressures on degraded
soils under intensive crop production. Conservation agriculture is promoted as a sustainable …

Soil organic carbon (SOC), mineralization and microbial community structures were
investigated at different depths of farmland soils 4 years after a single biochar amendment …

Microbial biomass residues play a significant role in biogeochemical cycling but the
mechanism by which material from microbial sources is sequestered in soil organic matter …

Climate warming is predicted to considerably affect variations in soil organic carbon (SOC),
especially in alpine ecosystems. Microbial necromass carbon (MNC) is an important …

Manipulating microorganisms to increase soil organic carbon (SOC) in croplands remains a
challenge. Soil microbes are important drivers of SOC sequestration, especially via their …

The frequency and intensity of droughts worldwide are challenging the conservation of soil
organic carbon (SOC) pool. Microbial necromass is a key component of SOC, but how it …
