Microbial carbon use efficiency promotes global soil carbon storage. [PDF]

Nature, 2023
A deep learning and data-driven modelling study finds that microbial carbon use efficiency is a major determinant of soil organic carbon storage and its spatial variation across the globe. Soils store more carbon than other terrestrial ecosystems^ 1 , 2 .

Beyond microbial carbon use efficiency. [PDF]

Natl Sci Rev
Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) is defined as the proportion of microbial biomass growth C versus substrate C uptake, and thus provides a useful measure of microbially driven accumulation and loss of soil organic carbon (SOC) [1 ].

Microbial carbon use efficiency predicted from genome-scale metabolic models. [PDF]

Nat Commun, 2019
Respiration by soil bacteria and fungi is one of the largest fluxes of carbon (C) from the land surface. Although this flux is a direct product of microbial metabolism, controls over metabolism and their responses to global change are a major uncertainty

Emerging multiscale insights on microbial carbon use efficiency in the land carbon cycle. [PDF]

Nat Commun
Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) affects the fate and storage of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems, but its global importance remains uncertain.

Transcriptomic markers of fungal growth, respiration and carbon-use efficiency. [PDF]

FEMS Microbiol Lett, 2021
Fungal metabolic carbon acquisition and its subsequent partitioning between biomass production and respiration, i.e. the carbon-use efficiency (CUE), are central parameters in biogeochemical modeling.

Soil Microbial Carbon Use Efficiency in Natural Terrestrial Ecosystems [PDF]

Biology
Soil microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) is the ratio of carbon allocated to microbial growth to that taken up by microorganisms. Soil microbial CUE affects terrestrial ecosystem processes such as greenhouse gas emissions, carbon turnover, and ...

Carbon Use Efficiency and Its Temperature Sensitivity Covary in Soil Bacteria [PDF]

mBio, 2020
The strategy that microbial decomposers take with respect to using substrate for growth versus maintenance is one essential biological determinant of the propensity of carbon to remain in soil.

Modeling adaptation of carbon use efficiency in microbial communities [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
In new microbial-biogeochemical models, microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) is often assumed to decline with increasing temperature. Under this assumption, soil carbon losses under warming are small because microbial biomass declines. Yet there is also

Whole-soil-profile warming does not change microbial carbon use efficiency in surface and deep soils. [PDF]

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2023
Significance Although surface and deep soils will warm at nearly the same rate throughout the next century, the response of deep-soil organic carbon (C) to climate warming is still unknown.

Ecosystem carbon use efficiency in ecologically vulnerable areas in China: Variation and influencing factors [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Ecologically vulnerable areas (EVAs) are regions with ecosystems that are fragile and vulnerable to degradation under external disturbances, e.g., environmental changes and human activities.
