New Study Uncovers How Microbial Metabolic Capacity Regulates Mineral-Associated Organic Carbon Accrual in Subtropical Paddy Soils
In the most recent study published in Soil Biology and Biochemistry on May 27th, researchers led by Prof. Wu Jinshui from the Institute of Subtropical Agriculture, Chinese Academy of Science , collected subtropical paddy soil samples along the organic C gradient ranging from 4.0 to 40.1 g kg-1 to investigate the relationship between MAOC accrual and microbial metabolism using a combination of size fractionation, 18O-H2O incubation, and biomarker techniques analyses.
