Root exudates mediate microorganisms to improve rhizosphere nutrient availability and crop productivity under straw mulching and slow‐release nitrogen fertilizer

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Root exudates play a key role as signals and nutrients in mediating plant–microbe communication. However, critical knowledge gaps remain regarding how root exudates mediate soil–microbe–plant interactions to regulate crop yield under long‐term straw mulching combined ...

Firewood extraction affects carbon pools and nutrients in remnant fragments of temperate forests at the Mexican Transvolcanic Belt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Globally, remnant fragments of forests represent the main carbon reservoir of terrestrial ecosystems, but they suffer strong degradation due to uncontrolled wood extraction mainly by tree cut for household fuel use and charcoal production.

Depth‐dependent mechanisms regulate accumulation of plant‐ and microbial‐derived residues under long‐term nitrogen addition in a semiarid grassland

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant‐ and microbial‐derived residues constitute the primary sources of soil organic carbon (SOC) in grassland ecosystems. However, their differential responses to chronic nitrogen (N) enrichment and the depth‐dependent mechanisms governing their accumulation remain ...

Exogenous IAA application alleviated altered physiological and biochemical processes through promoting H‐ATPase and Fe chelate reductase activities in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) subjected to iron deficiency

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Exogenous IAA supply enhances the strategy I response in common bean under iron deficiency. Abstract Iron deficiency is a common nutritional disorder observed in calcareous soils, where its resolution by classical methods has shown its failure. However, the exploitation of certain potentialities possessed by crops (rhizosphere acidification, H‐ATPase ...

Short‐Term Response of Soil Health Indicators to Cover Crop Management in Small‐Scale Vegetable Cropping Systems

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT A 2‐year field experiment (2022–2023) was conducted on a clay loam soil in Quebec, Canada, to evaluate the short‐term effect of spring‐seeded cover crop termination methods on soil health indicators. A mixture of field peas (Pisum sativum L.) with oats (Avena sativa L.) in 2022 and with faba beans (Vicia faba L.) in 2023 was seeded in early ...

The Selectivity of Milking of Dunaliella salina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The process of the simultaneous production and extraction of carotenoids, milking, of Dunaliella salina was studied. We would like to know the selectivity of this process. Could all the carotenoids produced be extracted?

Long‐Term Management Shapes Soil Microbial Communities Primarily Through Modulating Soil Habitat Quality in Swiss Croplands

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil microbial communities are key drivers of soil functioning in agricultural systems. Yet the relative influence of soil properties and cropping practices on their diversity remains insufficiently understood. We investigated 60 cropland sites in western Switzerland, covering a broad range of soil properties and cropping practices, to explore

The Maize ZmbHLH118 Transcription Factor Regulates Vacuolar Nitrate Loading by the NO3− Transporter ZmCLCa

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
In maize, the bHLH transcription factor ZmbHLH118 directly binds to the promoter of ZmCLCa and inhibits its expression. Tonoplast‐localized ZmCLCa mediates NO3− influx into the vacuole to regulate intracellular NO3− homeostasis, modulating nitrate uptake and metabolism, plant growth, and grain yield.

Flow of Deposited Inorganic N in Two Gleysol-dominated Mountain Catchments Traced with 15NO3− and 15NH4+ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
.: In two mountain ecosystems at the Alptal research site in central Switzerland, pulses of 15NO3 and 15NH4 were separately applied to trace deposited inorganic N. One forested and one litter meadow catchment, each approximately 1600m2, were delimited by
