The addition of fresh substrates can alter the decomposition of the native soil organic matter,
referred to as the priming effect (PE). It is a crucial process within the cycling of soil organic …

Nitrogen availability affects the mineralization of soil organic matter differently depending on
soil type and soil layer. It is unknown whether such differences result from different …

Forest soil processes carried out by microorganisms are critical for the global carbon (C)
cycle and climate. Characterizing the utilization of differently recalcitrant C sources is an …

Burkholderia pseudomallei is a saprophytic Gram‐negative bacillus that can cause the
disease melioidosis. Although B. pseudomallei is a recognised member of terrestrial soil …

Understanding how nitrogen (N) fertilisation influences the priming effect (PE) in soils is
imperative to predict the carbon loss and subsequent impact on climate. Three contrasting …

Exploring keystone taxa affecting microbial community stability and host function is crucial
for understanding ecosystem functions. However, identifying keystone taxa from humongous …

The extramatrical mycelium of ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) is an important source of soil
carbon and nitrogen. While the importance of recalcitrant compounds in the fungal cell wall …

Clearcutting represents a standard management practice in temperate forests with dramatic
consequences for the forest ecosystem. The removal of trees responsible for the bulk of …
