The unseen majority: soil microbes as drivers of plant diversity and productivity in terrestrial ecosystems. (2008, background): “Likewise, Dunn et al. (2006) stimulated the soil microbial community of a grassland soil by adding glucose and followed the transfer of added 15N-labelled N into the microbial and plant biomass of two grass species.”
Expanding the role of reactive transport models in critical zone processes (2017, background): “Microbes transform C (e.g., leaves, roots) in the presence of multiple electron AC C EP TE D M AN U SC R IP T acceptors including O2, nitrate, sulfate, as well as solid phases such as iron-containing and manganese-containing minerals (Dunn et al., 2006; Fierer et al., 2003; Philippot et al., 2009).”
Responses of enzymatic activities within soil aggregates to 9-year nitrogen and water addition in a semi-arid grassland (2015, background): “Microbial N limitation could also be induced by deficiency of accessible organic N as heterotrophic microorganisms prefer simple organic N monomers to inorganic N sources (N€ asholm et al., 1998; Schimel and Bennett, 2004; Dunn et al., 2006; Creamer et al., 2013).”
Microbial N immobilization is of great importance in acidified mountain spruce forest soils (2013, background): “Microorganisms have the potential to use organic and inorganic N sources (Merrick and Edwards, 1995) and heterotrophs prefer simple organic monomers (Schimel and Bennett, 2004; Dunn et al., 2006; Gonod et al., 2006).”
Do plant species with different growth strategies vary in their ability to compete with soil microbes for chemical forms of nitrogen (2008, background): “These findings suggest, therefore, that plant traits related to resource capture, as opposed to plant species-specific interactions with soil microbes (Wardle et al., 2004; Bardgett et al., 2005; Dunn et al., 2006), are likely to be the main factor controlling variation in uptake of N by grassland p”
