Soil Organic Carbon Attenuates the Influence of Plants on Root-Associated Bacterial Community
Plant-derived carbon (PDC) released by roots has a strong effect on root-associated bacterial community, which is critical for plant fitness in natural environments. However, the freshly exuded PDC can be diluted by the ancient soil-derived carbon (SDC) at a short distance from root apices. Thus, th...
