Abstract | Aims Mechanisms of subsoil carbon sequestration from deep-rooted plants are elusive, but may contribute to climate change mitigation. This study addressed the role of root chemistry on carbon mineralization and microbiology in a temperate agricultural subsoil (60 and 300cm depth) compared to topsoil (20cm depth). Methods Roots from different plant species were chemically characterized and root-induced CO2 production was measured in controlled soil incubations (20weeks). Total carbon losses, beta-glucosidase activity, carbon substrate utilization, and bacterial gene copy numbers were determined. After 20weeks, resultant carbon mineralization responses to mineral nitrogen (N) were tested. Results Root-induced carbon losses were significantly lower in subsoils (32-41%) than in topsoil (58%). Carbon losses varied according to root chemistry and were mainly linked to root N concentration for subsoils and to lignin and hemicellulose concentration for topsoil. Increases in -glucosidase activity and bacterial numbers in subsoils were also linked to root N concentration. Added mineral N preferentially stimulated CO2 production from roots with low concentrations of N, lignin and hemicellulose. Conclusions The results were compatible with a concept of N availability and chemically recalcitrant root compounds interacting to control subsoil carbon decomposition. Implications for carbon sequestration from deep-rooted plants are discussed.
