abstract = {Straw incorporation is crucial to soil organic carbon (SOC)
sequestration, thus improving soil fertility and mitigating
climate change. The fate of straw C and the associated net
SOC balance remain largely unexplored, particularly in soils
subjected to long-term mineral and organic fertilization. To
address this, soil (δ13C: –19‰) that had been
continuously cropped with maize for 31 years and subjected
to five long-term fertilization regimes, including (i)
control (Unfertilized), (ii) mineral fertilizer (NPK)
application, (iii) $200\%$ NPK (2 × NPK) application,
(iv) manure (M) application, and (v) NPK plus manure (NPKM)
application, was incubated with or without addition of rice
straw (δ13C: –29‰) for 70 days. Straw addition largely
primed SOC mineralization. The priming effect (PE) was
considerably higher in 2 × NPK $(+122\%$ of CO2 from soil
without straw addition) but lower in M $(+43\%)$ relative to
the unfertilized soil $(+82\%),$ highlighting the importance
of fertilization in controlling PE intensity. Fertilization
increased the straw-derived microbial biomass C by
$90–577\%$ and straw-derived SOC by $34–68\%$ compared
to the unfertilized soil, primarily due to the increased
abundance of Gram-negative bacteria and cellobiohydrolase
activity. Straw-derived SOC was strongly positively
correlated with straw-derived microbial biomass C,
suggesting that dead microbial biomass (necromass) was a
dominant precursor of SOC formation. Consequently,
fertilization facilitated microbial utilization of straw C
and its retention in soil, particularly in the M and NPKM
fertilized soils. The amounts of straw-derived SOC
overcompensated for the SOC losses by mineralization,
resulting in net C sequestration which was highest in the
NPK fertilized soil. Our study emphasizes that NPK
fertilization decreases the intensity of the PE induced by
straw addition and increases straw C incorporation into SOC,
thus facilitating C sequestration in agricultural soils.},
