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

Nature, 2023
AbstractSoils store more carbon than other terrestrial ecosystems1,2. How soil organic carbon (SOC) forms and persists remains uncertain1,3, which makes it challenging to understand how it will respond to climatic change3,4. It has been suggested that soil microorganisms play an important role in SOC formation, preservation and loss5–7.

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

FEMS Microbiol Lett, 2021
ABSTRACT 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. However, current available techniques for estimating these parameters are all associated with practical and theoretical ...

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

Nat Commun
AbstractMicrobial carbon use efficiency (CUE) affects the fate and storage of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems, but its global importance remains uncertain. Accurately modeling and predicting CUE on a global scale is challenging due to inconsistencies in measurement techniques and the complex interactions of climatic, edaphic, and biological factors ...

Carbon use efficiency in mycorrhizas theory and sample calculations [PDF]

New Phytologist, 1994
summaryThe benefit to a fungus by a mycorrhizal association is that it gains carbon from its host. A benefit to a host is usually a nutritional one, but any resulting increase in dry weight may be counteracted by the carbon consumed by the fungus.

Carbon isotopes and water use efficiency in C4 plants [PDF]

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2016
Drought is a major agricultural problem worldwide. Therefore, selection for increased water use efficiency (WUE) in food and biofuel crop species will be an important trait in plant breeding programs. The leaf carbon isotopic composition (δ(13)Cleaf) has been suggested to serve as a rapid and effective high throughput phenotyping method for WUE in both
