Agrochemist doubles speed of organic substance decomposition
“At the stage of decelerated decomposition, the activity of both plant remains and decomposition of organic substances highly depended on added glucose, which led to microbial consumption of organic substances from the soil. Generally, our results are important for analyzing the influence of different carbon sources, such as products of roots or microbes, on short- and long-term organic substances turnover,” said Yakov Kuzyakov, a co-author of the work, and a Ph.D. in biology from RUDN.
