- Does agricultural crop diversity enhance soil microbial biomass and organic matter dynamics? A meta-analysis. (2014, background): “…biomass C andN Our meta-analysis provides insights into how crop rotation influences total soil C and N pools, as well as the more rapid cycling MB pools that directly influence potential productivity and other key ecosystem services (Insam et al. 1991, Jonasson et al. 1996, Liang et al. 2011b).”
- SOM genesis: microbial biomass as a significant source (2012, methodology): “…the probabilities for C to remain in a given compartment or to enter another compartment) based on literature data, and found that, after equilibration with a constant organic matter input, the bacterial necromass was about 40 times as high as the living microbial biomass (Liang et al. 2010).”
- Extracellular enzymes in terrestrial, freshwater, and marine environments: perspectives on system variability and common research needs (2013, background): “While plant material is the original source of soil organic matter, most of the organic compounds found in soils have been transformed or metabolized by microbes (Liang et al. 2011; Miltner et al. 2011; Bradford et al. 2013).”
- Microbial control over carbon cycling in soil (2012, background): “Ultimately therefore, while catabolic potentials have limited role in controlling the turnover of mineral SOM, anabolic processes are unquestionably important (Liang et al., 2011).”
- The roles of microorganisms in litter decomposition and soil formation (2014, background): “Organic matter derived from microorganisms plays a critical role in the formation and preservation of soil organic matter (Liang et al. 2011).”
