Can artificial ecological corridors be used for ecological restoration of cultivated land in Chinese Mollisols? [PDF]
Artisficial ecological corridors (AECs) are internationally recognized as a standard method for restoring the regional ecological environment. However, the coupling relationship between AECs and soil quality has rarely been studied.

Do Soil pH Levels Drive the Responses of Catalase Activity and Bacterial Communities to Microplastics? A Case Study in Mollisols [PDF]
Prolonged application and low recycling rates of agricultural plastic films have resulted in significant accumulation of microplastics (MPs) in soils, posing a threat to soil health.

Organic carbon in Mollisols of the world − A review
Mollisols represent 29 % of agricultural land and they are considered to be one of the most fertile soils in the world. Here, we compare soil organic carbon (SOC) concentrations and pools of Mollisols for the globe, the USA and Poland, and review how ...

Irradiation with carbon ion beams affects soybean nutritional quality in early generations [PDF]
As people’s demand for healthy diet increases, improving soybean seed nutritional quality is becoming as important as yield. Carbon ion beam radiation (CIBR) is an effective method to create soybean mutants, and thus breeding cultivars with better seed ...
