Long-Term Manure Application Alters phoC- and phoD-Harboring Bacterial Communities and Soil Phosphatase Activities in Acidic Soil [PDF]
Long-term manure fertilization changes soil phosphorus (P) availability and the microbial groups involved in organic P mineralization, but phoC- and phoD-harboring communities may respond differently. In this study, a ten-year continuous field experiment

Mitigating aluminum toxicity and promoting plant resilience in acidic soil with Penicillium olsonii TLL1 [PDF]
Aluminum (Al), prevalent in the crust of the Earth, jeopardizes plant health in acidic soils, hindering root growth and overall development. In this study, we first analysed the Al- and pH- tolerance of the Penicillium olsonii TLL1 strain (POT1; NRRL ...

Alkaline and acidic soil constraints on iron accumulation by Rice cultivars in relation to several physio-biochemical parameters [PDF]
Agricultural production is severely limited by an iron deficiency. Alkaline soils increase iron deficiency in rice crops, consequently leading to nutrient deficiencies in humans.

Phosphorus (P) deficiency is an important factor that limits the agricultural production potential in acidic soils. The bacterial phoC gene encodes non-specific acid phosphatase (ACP), which participates in the mineralization of soil organic P and is ...

Nestedness in Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungal Communities along Soil pH Gradients in Early Primary Succession: Acid-Tolerant Fungi Are pH Generalists. [PDF]
Soil acidity is a major constraint on plant productivity. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi support plant colonization in acidic soil, but soil acidity also constrains fungal growth and diversity.

Amelioration of acidic soil using fly Ash for Mine Revegetation in Post-Mining Land
This paper described the use of fly ash for soil amelioration of acidic soils to promote plant growth. In mining sites, acid sulfate soils/rocks, which contain sulfide minerals (e.g. pyrite FeS2), have appeared as a result of overburden excavation.
