• Responses of soil microbial metabolism, function and soil quality to long-term addition of organic materials with different carbon sources (2024) · doi

  However, there is limited research systematically and comprehensively exploring the response of soil microbiota and the changes in soil metabolomics after the addition of two different carbon source amendments to the soil, and the differential mechanisms of soil metabolomics between them remain unclear.

• Microbial metabolism influences microplastic perturbation of dissolved organic matter in agricultural soils (2024) · doi

  Until now, most previous studies have focused on the α- and β- diversity patterns of soil microbiome after MPs enters the soil, but little is known about the microbial utilization processes of DOM released by different types and aging of MPs incorporated into soil and more importantly, the underpinning mechanisms regulating the structure of associated acting microbial networks [11, 25, 45, 66, 67].
