Soil fauna precipitate the convergence of organic matter quality during decomposition

Francois-Xavier Joly et al.

Summary: Plant litter is an important resource in soil food webs, and its decomposition into soil organic matter is influenced by both microbial and animal activity. Current understanding suggests that differences in litter quality disappear during decomposition, but this remains debated and lacks clear metrics. In this study, we examined the conversion of leaf litter from six tree species into faeces by six soil animal species and found that this process reduced the variability in physical and chemical characteristics between different litter types. We also observed that both animal-driven and microbial-driven convergence contribute to the overall convergence of organic matter quality during decomposition.

Resolving the intricate role of climate in litter decomposition

Francois-Xavier Joly et al.

Summary: Through three decomposition experiments at a European scale, we found that macroclimate and litter characteristics largely control plant litter decomposition, reaffirming the role of macroclimate as an integrative decomposition driver. Neglecting this indirect effect can lead to overestimation of micro-environmental control and failure to predict local decomposition. Our data help clarify the regulation of the global C cycle and highlight sources of confusion in the literature.

Aboveground organic matter removal reshapes soil microbial functional group balance in temperate forests

Francois Maillard et al.

Summary: The study investigates the impact of organic matter (OM) removal on soil bacteria and fungi in French temperate forests. It found that OM removal led to changes in the abundance and richness of bacterial and fungal populations, shifting towards less efficient decomposers. The study suggests that understanding the response of soil microbial communities to variations in OM inputs is crucial for predicting functional changes in forest ecosystems.

Wood-decay type and fungal guild dominance across a North American log transplant experiment

Francois Maillard et al.

Summary: In this study, we investigated the decay type of large-diameter aspen, birch, and pine logs in eight climatically-distinct forest sites in the United States. Our results showed that white rot fungi were the most dominant and diverse wood-rotting fungal guild, and soft rot fungi were more abundant than brown rot fungi. The decay type was influenced by both biotic and abiotic factors, varying among different tree species.

Bleaching of leaf litter accelerates the decomposition of recalcitrant components and mobilization of nitrogen in a subtropical forest

Takashi Osono et al.

Summary: The study conducted in a subtropical forest in Japan showed that bleached leaf litter exhibited different chemical characteristics over time, with faster mass loss and lower content of recalcitrant compounds. Bleaching plays a dominant role in the decomposition of leaf litter, accelerating the transformation and turnover of organic compounds and nitrogen.

Experimental nitrogen fertilisation globally accelerates, then slows decomposition of leaf litter

Allison L. Gill et al.

Summary: The study found that nitrogen fertilization accelerates early-stage decomposition of plant litter but slows down later-stage decomposition, impacting the carbon cycling in soil.

Sapwood and heartwood affect differentially bacterial and fungal community structure and successional dynamics during Quercus petraea decomposition

Chloe Viotti et al.

Summary: This study aimed to understand the dynamics of microbial ecological guilds in wood decomposition, with a focus on the effect of wood type. The research found contrasting bacterial and fungal succession dynamics between sapwood and heartwood, with some initial functional guilds persisting in heartwood throughout the experiment. The data also suggested a significant role of bacteria in the nitrogen cycle during wood decomposition.

Home-field advantage of litter decomposition: from the phyllosphere to the soil

Nicolas Fanin et al.

Summary: Plants often benefit from specialized decomposer communities, known as the 'home-field advantage', which increase the breakdown of plant litter. When the phyllosphere communities are removed, the 'home-field advantage' effects are reduced. Priority effects and interactions between phyllosphere and soil organisms play a role in explaining the positive effects of the phyllosphere at home.

Life in leaf litter: Fungal community succession during decomposition

D. S. Tennakoon et al.

Summary: Leaf litter decomposition is crucial for forest ecosystem nutrient cycling, with fungal communities playing a key role in breakdown and recycling. Understanding fungal succession through high throughput methods and combining morphological and molecular data is essential for studying species diversity and community dynamics in fungal succession experiments. There are opportunities for further breakthroughs in this area, as current approaches show potential but have not been widely applied.

Soil fungal mycelia have unexpectedly flexible stoichiometric C:N and C:P ratios

Tessa Camenzind et al.

Summary: The study revealed unexpected high flexibility in C:N and C:P values of saprobic fungi along nutrient supply gradients, questioning microbial homeostasis. Fungal N:P varied less due to simultaneous reductions in mycelial N and P contents. Internal recycling processes and reduced N and P uptake during mycelial growth may be more relevant than element storage.
