Examples of SOC in a sentence
Soil properties analysis showed that soil viruses slightly increased SOC and TN content, especially during the late stage of the microcosm experiment, i.e., at day 10 (P < 0.05) and 45(P < 0.05) (Fig.
Collectively, the importance of viral loop in SOC sequestration needs to be acknowledged and investigated.
Indeed, the GL soil contained two-fold more SOC (GL: 23.9 g kg- 1; AG: 12.3 g kg-1) and TN (GL: 2.2 g kg-1; AG: 1.1 g kg-1) content than the AG soil (Fig.
The increased accelerated microbial biomass turnover and decreased bioavailability of the cell lysate in viral loop can jointly contribute to increasing the SOC content and stability.Recently, soil mineral carbon pump (MnCP) was proposed as complimentary framework for soil microbial carbon pump (MCP), to describe the critical roles of soil minerals in enhancing SOCpersistence and accumulation (Xiao et al., 2023).
Our study emphasized the top-down control of viral loop on MnCP and MCP, as soil viruses exert profound influences over microbial processes of SOC production and sequestration and generate an enormous amount of OC for MnCP.
