Ecosystem-level warming reduces microbial necromass in the topsoil but not in deeper soil of a subtropical forest

Geoderma
Rising temperatures in subtropical regions pose a significant challenge to soil carbon (C) storage. Microbial necromass is an important contributor to the persistent soil C pool, yet little is known about its responses to warming in subtropical forest ...

Melanization of mycorrhizal fungal necromass structures microbial decomposer communities [PDF]

Journal of Ecology, 2018
Abstract Mycorrhizal fungal necromass is increasingly recognized as an important contributor to soil organic carbon pools, particularly in forest ecosystems. While its decomposition rate is primarily determined by biochemical composition, how traits such as melanin content affect the structure of necromass decomposer communities remains poorly ...

Virocell Necromass Provides Limited Plant Nitrogen and Elicits Rhizosphere Metabolites That Affect Phage Dynamics

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bacteriophages impact soil bacteria through lysis, altering the availability of organic carbon and plant nutrients. However, the magnitude of nutrient uptake by plants from lysed bacteria remains unknown, partly because this process is challenging to investigate in the field.

Mystery and misery of locally‐delivered drug therapy in periodontics. Historical concepts and current state

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The primary objective is to critically analyze approaches to local therapy for periodontal disease, particularly in light of its well‐established systemic implications. We specifically address common misconceptions and overestimations regarding the potential of local treatments in contrast to their actual clinical effectiveness.

Organic fertilizers incorporation increased microbial necromass accumulation more than mineral fertilization in paddy soil via altering microbial traits

Long-term fertilization is considered as the most effective practice in organic C accrual in intensively managed paddy soils. However, the contribution and mechanism of microbial necromass C for soil organic C accrual, and the effective incremental ...

Fast-decaying tree litter reduces the temperature sensitivity of soil carbon decomposition by increasing microbial necromass carbon

Geoderma
Improvements in stocks and stability of forest soil organic carbon can be achieved through the management of tree species. Given the long lifespan of trees and their role as the keystone species in forested ecosystems, decisions regarding tree species ...

Contrasting effects of multifactorial carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus amendments on soil microbial carbon‐use efficiency and biomass turnover in a subtropical grassland and forest soil

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Soil microbial carbon‐use efficiency (CUE) and biomass turnover have been identified as important drivers of biogeochemical processes; however, we lack a comprehensive understanding of the factors driving them. Here, we tested how multifactorial carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) amendments affect microbial CUE and biomass turnover ...

Microbial necromass underpins long-term soil carbon stability and ecosystem carbon persistence in pine reforestations

Forest Ecosystems
The long-term carbon (C) sequestration potential of plantations hinges on the dynamics and persistence of mature forest C sinks, yet how C storage and stability evolve with increasing forest age remains unclear.

Sustained Livestock Grazing Enhances Soil Organic Carbon Storage in Sub‐Arctic Grassland

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 4, December 2026.
We studied long‐term effects of grazing cessation on 34 grassland and heathland sites in Iceland. Grazing cessation was associated with lower SOC, nitrogen and root carbon in the top 10 cm of soil providing evidence for enhanced SOC in grazed land, showing that grazing is a climate change mitigation strategy.
