Enzymatic strategies and carbon use efficiency of a litter-decomposing fungus grown on maize leaves, stems and roots

Soil microorganisms can control the soil cycles of carbon (C), and depending on their C-use efficiency (CUE), these microorganisms either contribute to C stabilization in soil or produce CO2 when decomposing organic matter. However, little is known regarding the enzyme investment of microbial decomp...
