The data reported here derive from the experiment described in Soong et al. 2015 and Soong et al. 2016. The experiment was designed: 1) to trace the fate of C and N from dual labeled decomposing Andropogon gerardii leaf litter and pyrogenic organic matter into the soil and roots; 2) to identify the microbial and nematode community composition and utilization of the isotopically labeled substrates over the course of 11 months.ZIPCSVPDFXLSXengDatasetThe material is open access and distributed under the terms and conditions of the Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike International License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/).
