Analysis of fumigant residues - A critical review
This review concentrates on the main fumigants currently applied to commodities: phosphine (PH3) and methyl bromide (CH3Br). It discusses possible new fumigants, such as carbonyl sulfide (COS) and ethyl formate (EtF), that may be able to be applied in ...

ABSTRACT The hydrology and drainage history of freshwater marshes influence their soil properties and plant communities, which in turn affect microbial biomass and extracellular enzyme activities that regulate the biogeochemistry and functioning of the marsh. However, field reports examining the spatial differences and controls of microbial biomass and

Previously Unrecognized Land‐Use Control on Deep Soil CO2 Sink
Transport‐limited, boundary‐conditioned bidirectional exchange of topsoil‐respired CO2 drives CO2 accumulation in less bioactive subsoils in concentrations that cannot be explained by in situ production alone and far exceed atmospheric boundary concentrations, revealing a production‐transport imbalance and a potential land‐use‐sensitive pathway for ...

Incubations with fine and coarse roots of transgenic and wild type bioenergy sorghum showed that transgenic roots had higher content of mixed‐linkage glucan and resulted in greater soil microbial biomass than the roots of the vector control plants.

Summary diagram of the utilization of additional carbohydrates fixed under elevated CO2 belowground in natural low‐phosphorus (P) (a) and P‐fertilized (b) conditions. Soil respiration consists of heterotrophic respiration from microbial activity in bulk soil, autotrophic respiration from fine‐root activity and rhizomicrobial respiration driven by ...

Preservatives treatment and field test monitoring of spruce pole stock: CCA and fumigant treatments
The fumigants trichloronitromethane (chloropicrin) and sodium N-methyldithiocarbamate (SNMDC) were used to treat red spruce pole stock, either CCA treated or untreated, through holes bored through the pole's center.

Experimental design. Summary Intraspecific plant diversity is a major component of community diversity, yet its role in shaping plant–microbial interactions and soil functioning remains poorly understood. In particular, plant genotypic diversity may modulate ecosystem responses to defoliation, a key driver of ecosystem processes in grazed systems.

Ethylene dibromide-a fumigant for the food industry.
The use of ethylene dibromíde as a fumigant and particularly in combination with carbon tetrachloride has been known for the last 3 decades. Recent investigations have shown that it is equally efficient for controlling insect and fungal infestations in
