Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The stoichiometric imbalance caused by nitrogen (N) deposition typically exacerbates phosphorus (P) limitation in plants. However, it remains unclear whether this effect extends to soil microbes, particularly those in the rhizosphere.
