Soil carbon sequestration by root exudates
Root exudates are well-known 'labile'sources of soil carbon that can prime microbial activity.
Recent investigations suggest that the stability of labile carbon inputs in soil mostly depends …

Soil organic matter formation, persistence, and functioning: A synthesis of current understanding to inform its conservation and regeneration
MF Cotrufo, JM Lavallee - Advances in agronomy, 2022 - Elsevier
Soil organic matter (SOM) provides vital services to humanity. Its preservation and further
accrual are key to sustain food production and avoid an irreversible climate crisis. Here we …

Fast-decaying plant litter enhances soil carbon in temperate forests but not through microbial physiological traits
Conceptual and empirical advances in soil biogeochemistry have challenged long-held
assumptions about the role of soil micro-organisms in soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics; …

Integrating the evidence for a terrestrial carbon sink caused by increasing atmospheric CO2
Atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2]) is increasing, which increases leaf‐scale
photosynthesis and intrinsic water‐use efficiency. These direct responses have the potential …

Changes in plant inputs alter soil carbon and microbial communities in forest ecosystems
Global changes can alter plant inputs from both above‐and belowground, which, thus, may
differently affect soil carbon and microbial communities. However, the general patterns of …

Priming effects induced by degradable microplastics in agricultural soils
Microplastics (MPs) in farmland soils have the potential to cause environmental and human
health risks due to their ubiquitous and persistent nature. Degradable MPs may significantly …
