Soil Organic Carbon Increases With Decreasing Microbial Carbon Use Efficiency During Vegetation Restoration

Global Change Biology
Microbial carbon (C) use efficiency (CUE) describes the proportion of organic C used by microorganisms for anabolic processes, which increases with soil organic C (SOC) content on a global scale.

Lithological Controls on Soil Aggregates and Minerals Regulate Microbial Carbon Use Efficiency and Necromass Stability.

Environmental Science and Technology
Microbial carbon (C) use efficiency (CUE) drives soil C formation, while physical-chemical protection stabilizes subsequent microbial necromass, both shaped by soil aggregates and minerals.

Microbial crosstalk: decoding interactions to generate efficient SynComs

Trends in Plant Science
Limited studies have explored the complex and intense crosstalk between microbes within synthetic microbial communities (SynComs). Here, we highlight recent findings by Zohair et al., who unraveled the metabolic interactions between co-cultured microbes.

Only microbial antigens are efficient mucosal immunogens

1990
The antibody response to bacterial versus dietary antigens was studied in germfree rats colonized with E. coli and fed pellets containing egg and milk proteins. The antibody response against the bacterial antigens (06 LPS, type 1 fimbriae, and β-galactosidase) was stronger, and mostly appeared earlier than that against the food antigens (ovalbumin and ...

Microbial Carbon Accumulation Efficiency: Assessing Microbial Carbon Pump Efficiency based on 13C-glucose Amendment Experiment

Soil microbes play an important role in stabilizing soil organic carbon (C) as microbial residues, a process known as soil ‘microbial C pump’ (MCP). Accurately assessing MCP efficiency is essential for understanding microbial-mediated soil C sequestration.

Calculation of microbial growth efficiency from15N immobilization

Biogeochemistry, 1988
Microbial growth rate was estimated by multiplying15N immobilization by an estimated microbial C:N ratio. This growth rate, in combination with measurements of respiration, was used to calculate growth efficiency. Growth rates and efficiencies were calculated for grassland and cultivated soils of three textures. Calculated efficiencies (Yc), assuming a

Stacked Microbial Desalination Cells to Enhance Water Desalination Efficiency

Environmental Science & Technology, 2011
Microbial desalination cell (MDC) is a new method to obtain clean water from brackish water using electricity generated from organic matters by exoelectrogenic bacteria. Anions and cations, derived from salt solution filled in the desalination chamber between the anode and cathode, move to the anode and cathode chambers under the force of electrical ...

Nitrogen fertilization affected microbial carbon use efficiency and microbial resource limitations via root exudates

Science of The Total Environment
Root exudation and its mediated nutrient cycling process driven by nitrogen (N) fertilizer can stimulate the plant availability of various soil nutrients, which is essential for microbial nutrient acquisition. However, the response of soil microbial resource limitations to long-term N fertilizer application rates in greenhouse vegetable systems has ...
