Increasing temperature can modify the effect of straw mulching on soil C fractions, soil respiration, and microbial community composition.
Straw mulching has been widely adopted in dryland cropping but its effect on soil respiration and microbial communities under warming are not well understood. Soil samples were collected from a corn field with straw mulching (SM) for nine years and without straw mulching (CK), and incubated at 15°C,...
