Global synthesis for the scaling of soil microbial nitrogen to phosphorus in terrestrial ecosystems

Global synthesis for the scaling of soil microbial nitrogen to phosphorus in terrestrial ecosystems

Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are associated with the life history of all organisms. Soil microbes play essential roles in nutrient cycling and ecosystem dynamics. As compared to plants, however, our understanding of the soil microbial N versus P scaling relationship remains limited. In this study...
