The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Pesticide relevance and their microbial degradation: a-state-of-art (2014, background): “The pesticides are bioactive, toxic substances, and it influences, directly or indirectly, soil fertility and health as well as agroecosystem quality (Lo 2010; Joergensen and Emmerling 2006).”
Members of soil bacterial communities sensitive to tillage and crop rotation (2010, background): “Soil microbial diversity has historically been studied by substrate utilization or plating (Hill et al., 2000; Joergensen and Emmerling, 2006).”
Active microorganisms in soil: Critical review of estimation criteria and approaches (2013, methodology): “, 2003) is a measure of total microbial biomass (Joergensen and Emmerling, 2006; Renella et al., 2006).”
The fat that matters: Soil food web analysis using fatty acids and their carbon stable isotope signature (2010, methodology): “PLFAs have been employed as tools to assess microbial biomass and community structure in soil (e.g. Tunlid and White, 1992; Frostegård and Bååth, 1996; Olsson, 1999; Zelles, 1999; Joergensen and Emmerling, 2006).”
Root trenching: a useful tool to estimate autotrophic soil respiration? A case study in an Austrian mountain forest (2008, methodology): “Applying the conversion factor from Jörgensen and Emmerling (2006) on PLFAmic, we obtained an average value (§SE) of 1.”
