Shift from flooding to drying enhances the respiration of soil aggregates by changing microbial community composition and keystone taxa

Changes in the water regime are among the crucial factors controlling soil carbon dynamics. However, at the aggregate scale, the microbial mechanisms that regulate soil respiration under flooding and drying conditions are obscure. In this research, we investigated how the shift from flooding to dryi...
