In this study, stable isotope probing of phospholipid fatty acids and amino sugars were used to determine the microbial responses and microbial residue retention in two soils (Mollisol and Ultisol) with C-13-labeled glucose addition. The microbial responses stimulated by glucose were greater in C-poor Ultisol than in C-rich Mollisol. However, the transformation of labile C to microbial residues in Mollisol was more rapid. Therefore, the starvation effect may control microbial growth and microbial residue production, and thus resulting in distinct sequestration and stabilization process of labile C in different soils. 收起
