Fungi do more than decompose! New research from BayCEER uncovers how fungal communities and soil properties shape long-term carbon storage. Read more: www.bayceer.uni-bayreuth.de/bayceer/en/a... @jpausch.bsky.social @khatababdalla.bsky.social #fungal #soil #mycorrhizal #ecology #microbiology

New paper on necromass! 🌱🍄 Using highly ¹³C-enriched AMF necromass, we traced the fate of fungal residues in soil and found surprisingly dynamic and texture-dependent stabilization processes. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #SoilScience #CarbonCycling #necromass #SoilCarbon #Biogeochemistry

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal necromass: Rapid decomposition and texture-dependent formation of mineral-associated organic matter
Fungal necromass represents a major source of soil organic carbon (C), partly stabilized as mineral-associated organic matter (MAOM). Mycorrhizal fung…
