Shifts in Soil Structure, Biological, and Functional Diversity Under Long-Term Carbon Deprivation

Shifts in Soil Structure, Biological, and Functional Diversity Under Long-Term Carbon Deprivation

Soil organic matter is composed of a variety of carbon (C) forms. However, not all forms are equally accessible to soil microorganisms. Deprivation of C inputs will cause changes in the physical and microbial community structures of soils; yet the trajectories of such changes are not clear. We asses...
