Soil Texture Influences on Organic Decomposition
Global change and increasing food demand call for more sustainable and ecological soil management efforts, including directing soil microbial communities toward improved C sequestration. However, the heterogeneous nature of soils, as well as microbial preferences to specific soil texture, suggest that directing microbial roles in soil C sequestration will be challenging. This work investigated the combined effects of soil texture and substrate types on the soil microbial community structure and their C degradation abilities.
