Abstract: Background and aimsOne means of reducing nitrate leaching in temperate farming is to include catch crops in crop rotations, which immobilize residual nitrogen (N) in their biomass. For an accurate quantification of the N stored… read more here.

Abstract: Plants allocate their photosynthetic carbon (C) belowground through rhizodeposition, which can be incorporated into microbial biomass and organic matter, but can also be directly shared with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). In this study, we investigated… read more here.
