Interactive Effects of Warming and Nitrogen Fertilization on Soil Organic Carbon, Total Nitrogen, Soil Respiration, and Microbial Activities

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2026.
Warming significantly increased, but nitrogen (N) fertilization decreased soil respiration, and N fertilization also decreased soil respiration only in the warming treatment in a switchgrass cropland in Middle Tennessee. ABSTRACT Understanding the effects of multiple global change drivers, for example, warming (W) and nitrogen (N) fertilization, is ...

Production of xylanolytic enzymes by Aspergillus terricola in stirred tank and airlift tower loop bioreactors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Fungi producing high xylanase levels have attracted considerable attention because of their potential industrial applications. Batch cultivations of Aspergillus terricola fungus were evaluated in stirred tank and airlift bioreactors, by using wheat ...

Long‐term leguminous mulch reduces microbial nutrient limitation and enhances soil multifunctionality of citrus orchard

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Leguminous green mulching (LGM) enhances soil biochemical properties and ecosystem functions of orchards, yet the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. To address this, we compared three mulching regimes—clean tillage, 4‐year mulching, and 8‐year mulching—to examine the response of soil microbial metabolic limitation and ecosystem ...

Soil extracellular enzymes drive soil carbon accumulation under elevated CO2

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 347-359, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven increases in atmospheric CO2 (eCO2) are stimulating plant growth, thereby increasing the input of plant‐derived carbon into soils. The fate of this additional carbon depends on the capacity of soil microbiomes to decompose and transform organic matter, a ...

Evolutionary Divergence of an Ethylene‐Responsive Transcriptional Cascade Governs a Dose‐Dependent Balance between Cotton Fiber Length and Strength

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, 27 January 2026.
A tunable, ethylene‐responsive cascade governing the dose‐dependent balance between fiber length and strength is unveiled. Elevated ethylene strengthens modern tetraploid cotton (G. hirsutum) fibers but elongates those of its diploid ancestor (G. arboreum). This phenotypic switch is traced to an evolutionary functional inversion of a conserved EIN3‐ERF‐

Niche differentiation is spatially and temporally regulated in the rhizosphere. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The rhizosphere is a hotspot for microbial carbon transformations, and is the entry point for root polysaccharides and polymeric carbohydrates that are important precursors to soil organic matter (SOM).

Iminosugar inhibitors of carbohydrate-active enzymes that underpin cereal grain germination and endosperm metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Starch is a major energy store in plants. It provides most of the calories in the human diet and, as a bulk commodity, it is used across broad industry sectors.
