The Role of Phosphorus Limitation in Shaping Soil Bacterial Communities and Their Metabolic Capabilities

ABSTRACT Phosphorus (P) is an essential nutrient that is often in limited supply, with P availability constraining biomass production in many terrestrial ecosystems. Despite decades of work on plant responses to P deficiency and the importance of soil microbes to terrestrial ecosystem processes, how...
