Excited to share my paper challenging the C : N : P enzyme stoichiometry 1 : 1 : 1 pattern as a logarithm artefact and advocating unit-independent approaches for clearer insights into nutrient aquisition

#SoilMicroorganisms is a important bioindicator of soil carbon and nutrient cycling, #LandUseType can affect it. Xiongde Dong et al. conducted the study in the #YellowRiver #Floodplain to examine the effects of land use type on #SoilMicrobialCommunities.

How do #SoilMicroorganisms respond to increasing #PlantSpeciesDiversity (PSD) when #MicrobialResource limited ?
The conclusion is: Increasing PSD aggravates microbial #Phosphorus limitation but alleviates microbial #Carbon limitation in a #SubtropicalForest.
