Effects of Corn Stalks Returning on Soil Microbial Carbon Use Efficiency and Corn Yield in Semi-Arid Cropland

Soil microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) is a key parameter controlling the short-term carbon (C) cycle in terrestrial ecosystems. The effect of urea application (156 kg N ha-1) and corn stalks returning (9.0 tons ha-1) on soil microbial CUE and corn yield in semi-arid cropland was studied using t...
