Missing the input: the underrepresentation of plant physiology in global soil carbon research (2025)
Journal Article
Raza, S., Cooper, H. V., Girkin, N. T., Kent, M. S., Bennett, M. J., Mooney, S. J., & Colombi, T. (2025). Missing the input: the underrepresentation of plant physiology in global soil carbon research. SOIL, 11(1), 363-369. https://doi.org/10.5194/soil-11-363-2025

Plant processes regulating the quantity and quality of soil organic carbon inputs such as photosynthesis, above- and below-ground plant growth, and root exudation are integral to our understanding of soil carbon dynamics. However, based on a bibliome... Read More about Missing the input: the underrepresentation of plant physiology in global soil carbon research.

Future crop breeding needs to consider future soils (2025)
Journal Article
Raza, S., Pandey, B. K., Hawkesford, M. J., Griffiths, S., Bennett, M. J., & Mooney, S. J. (2025). Future crop breeding needs to consider future soils. Nature Plants, 11, 939-941. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41477-025-01977-z

Modern crop breeding and seed certification agencies ignore the known spatial heterogeneity of soils and develop cultivars to thrive in a ‘one-size-fits-all’ soil environment. Neglecting the evolving dynamics of soils substantially undermines the cap... Read More about Future crop breeding needs to consider future soils.

Inorganic carbon is overlooked in global soil carbon research: A bibliometric analysis (2024)
Journal Article
Raza, S., Irshad, A., Margenot, A., Zamanian, K., Li, N., Ullah, S., Mehmood, K., Khan, M. A., Siddique, N., Zhou, J., Mooney, S. J., Kurganova, I., Zhao, X., & Kuzyakov, Y. (2024). Inorganic carbon is overlooked in global soil carbon research: A bibliometric analysis. Geoderma, 443, Article 116831. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geoderma.2024.116831

Soils are a major player in the global carbon (C) cycle and climate change by functioning as a sink or a source of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). The largest terrestrial C reservoir in soils comprises two main pools: organic (SOC) and inorganic C...
