This study aims to understand the existence of stable soil organic carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) ratios in paddy soil. Based on a field soil survey database, the ecological stoichiometry of the C:N:P ratio of 110 subtropical paddy soil profiles and 587 genetic horizons were analyzed at a regional scale. Relevant analysis and redundancy analysis (RDA) are used to study the relationships between C:N:P ratios and soil-environmental factors (topography, parent materials, soil genetic horizons, soil groups, soil physical, and chemical...
