By focusing on controls on in-situ enzyme activity, we hope to advance our understanding of the ecology of soil extracellular enzymes.

Soil extracellular enzyme activities in the surface (0-5 cm) and subsurface (5-20 cm) layers of alpine meadow (A-F) and swamp meadow (G-L) under different warming treatments.CK: control treatment ...

A microscopic enzyme could be the key to helping nitrogen fertilizers stick better to the soil and prevent runoff that causes ...

"Extracellular enzymes are more resistant due to the organo-mineral complex that stabilizes them in the soil environment and that intracellular enzymes lack. Enzymes that participate in nitrogen ...

Lignin, a chief component of cell walls in plants, is naturally degraded in the soil. Identifying new ... through the production of extracellular enzymes, which aid in lignin degradation.

Previous research has explored the effects of a foliar endophytic fungus on host microsite distribution and soil extracellular enzyme activity along elevational gradients. Postdoc/ Plant Ecologist ...
