- Extracellular enzymes in terrestrial, freshwater, and marine environments: perspectives on system variability and common research needs (2013, background): “In terrestrial environments, in situ enzyme activities are dynamic (Bell and Henry 2011) and responsive to changes in microbial biomass and community structure (i.e. production), declining with stabilization (mineral and organic sorption) and degradation (Waldrop et al. 2000).”
- Soil extracellular enzyme activities correspond with abiotic factors more than fungal community composition (2013, background): “Numerous studies have found significant correlations between phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) profiles and EEA (DeForest et al. 2012; Waldrop et al. 2000; Brockett et al. 2012; Kourtev et al. 2003), but a mechanistic understanding of how EEA may change among fungal groups is still unclear.”
