Microbial Communities Influence Soil Dissolved Organic Carbon Concentration by Altering Metabolite Composition
Rapid microbial growth in the early phase of plant litter decomposition is viewed as an important component of soil organic matter (SOM) formation. However, the microbial taxa and chemical substrates that correlate with carbon storage are not well resolved. The complexity of microbial communities an...
