A first-of-its-kind study led by researchers at the University of Oklahoma highlights a crucial biosphere feedback mechanism and its effects on releasing soil carbon into the atmosphere. Jizhong Zhou, ...

The input of fresh carbon can either enhance or suppress the mineralization rate of native soil organic carbon (SOC), a process known as the priming effect. The priming effect plays a crucial role in ...

Seed priming boosts germination speed & seedling strength in carrots/parsnips by encouraging early embryo growth.

The input of fresh organic matter, and the induced priming effect (PE), has long been recognized as a critical regulator of soil organic matter (SOM) ...
