Aim The priming effect (PE) refers to changes in the decomposition of native soil organic carbon induced by exogenous carbon inputs. Specifically, an increase in native soil organic carbon decomposition is termed positive PE, whereas a decrease is referred to as negative PE. In this study, we aimed to investigate how positive and negative PE respond to experimental warming and the factors controlling these responses at a globa...

Multiple lines of existing evidence suggest that increasing CO 2 emission from soils in response to rising temperature could accelerate global warming. However, in experimental studies, the initial positive response of soil heterotrophic respiration ( R H ) to warming often weakens over time (referred to apparent thermal acclimation). If the decreased R H is driven by thermal adaptation of soil microbial community, the potenti...

High temperature and hypoxia greatly threaten marine life and aquaculture. Scallops, a diverse and ecologically important group of high economic value, mostly thrive in fluctuating environments, and are vulnerable to environmental stress. In the present study, the molecular response mechanism of scallops to a combination of environmental stressors was investigated via transcriptome analysis of the gill tissues in three scallop...
