It is crucial to understand the relationships among microbial metabolism, community structure and ecosystem processes of terrestrial ecosystems and their responses and feedbacks to glob-al changes. In this review, we first introduced the significance of microbial decomposers in the carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus cycles of terrestrial ecosystems from perspectives of ecological stoichiometry and metabolic theories. Then we synthesized four potential mechanisms of microbial response and control on substrate stoichi-ometric variations, i.e., through (1) modifying microbial stoichiometry, (2) shifting microbial community struc-ture, (3) producing extracellular enzymes to acquire limiting resources, and (4) changing microbial carbon, nitro-gen, and phosphor use efficiencies. Finally, we proposed three research directions in this field: (1) to comprehen-sively explore various microbial mechanisms in response to changes in substrate stoichiometry and the relative importance of these mechanisms; (2) to examine influences of global changes on microbial-driven cycles of car-bon, nitrogen, and phosphorus; and (3) to explore spatiotemporal changes in the strategies of microbial adaptation to changes in the substrate stoichiometry.
