Environmental Effects on Soil Microbial Nitrogen Use Efficiency Are Controlled by Allocation of Organic Nitrogen to Microbial Growth and Regulate Gross N Mineralization [PDF]
Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2019 Microbial nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is the efficiency by which microbes allocate organic N acquired to biomass formation relative to the N in excess of microbial demand released through N mineralization. Microbial NUE thus is critical to estimate the

Diversity of Microbial Functional Genes Promotes Soil Nitrogen Mineralization in Boreal Forests
MicroorganismsSoil nitrogen (N) mineralization typically governs the availability and movement of soil N. Understanding how factors, especially functional genes, affect N transformations is essential for the protection and restoration of forest ecosystems.

Microbial mechanisms of organic matter mineralization induced by straw in biochar-amended paddy soil
BiocharCombined straw and straw-derived biochar input is commonly applied by farmland management in low-fertility soils. Although straw return increases soil organic matter (SOM) contents, it also primes SOM mineralization.

Microbial community changes mediate the decline in soil organic carbon mineralization with depth in tea plantations [PDF]
Carbon Balance and ManagementBackground Tea plantation soils serve as vital carbon (C) sinks rich in soil organic carbon (SOC), yet existing research primarily focuses on the 0–20 cm topsoil, leaving a lack of systematic study of SOC mineralization characteristics and microbial ...

Microbial volatile fingerprints: potential use for soil/water diagnostics and correlation with traditional microbial parameters [PDF]
, 2007 This project used an electronic nose (E-nose) system composed of an array of 14 nonspecific conducting polymer sensors for soil and water diagnostics, based on qualitative microbial volatile production patterns. It tested the feasibility of using soil

Correction to: Size matters: biochemical mineralization and microbial incorporation of dicarboxylic acids in soil [PDF]
, 2022 The transformation and turnover time of medium- to long-chain dicarboxylic acids (DCA) in soil is regulated by microbial uptake and mineralization. However, the chain length of n-alkyl lipids may have a remarkable influence on its microbial utilization ...
