Serpentine Biocrust Microbes Maintain Nitrogen Cycling Under Drought and Heavy Metal Stress

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
This study highlights the complex interplay between soil geochemistry and moisture availability in shaping microbial communities within wetter and drier serpentine and non‐serpentine biological soil crusts. It demonstrates that both factors influence the structure of nitrogen‐cycling microbial communities and the processes they mediate.

Biochar‐Based Urea Enhances Yield and Quality of Lady's Finger (Abelmoschus esculentus L.): A Pathway Towards Sustainable Nitrogen Management

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2026.
Biochar‐coated urea markedly improved growth, yield, nitrogen‐use efficiency, and nutritional quality of lady's finger compared with conventional urea. This biochar‐based slow‐release fertilizer offers a sustainable pathway to reduce nitrogen losses, enhance productivity, and improve economic returns while mitigating environmental degradation ...

Spatial interaction of archaeal ammonia-oxidizers and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria in an unfertilized grassland soil

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Interrelated successive transformation steps of nitrification are performed by distinct microbial groups – the ammonia-oxidizers, comprising ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB), and nitrite-oxidizers such as Nitrobacter and Nitrospira ...

Improving Essential Oil, Pigments, and Mineral Accumulation in Basil Through Integrated Silicon and Nano‐Fertilizer Treatments in Aquaponics

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Combined Si and nano‐fertilizers enhanced basil growth and biomass. Essential oil, pigments, and mineral content significantly increased. Integrated nutrition improved yield and quality in aquaponic systems. ABSTRACT Innovative agricultural production systems and effective nutrient management approaches are essential to meet an escalating global demand

Underlying Mechanism of Wild Radix pseudostellariae in Tolerance to Disease Under the Natural Forest Cover

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Replanting disease caused by negative plant-soil feedback in continuous monoculture of Radix pseudostellariae is a critical factor restricting the development of this common and popular Chinese medicine, although wild R.

Exploring variations in potential carbon and nitrogen mineralization in managed grasslands among the diversity of soils in North Carolina

Grassland Research, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 169-181, June 2026.
Under steady–state conditions, potential nitrogen mineralization in soil under grasslands is closely tied to potential carbon mineralization. This study provides supporting evidence that field–specific nitrogen fertilizer recommendations could be indicated by using a simple and rapid analysis of soil–test biological activity.

The Nitrobacter-denitrifiers ratio in soil indicates nitrate export risk to streams in temperate forest catchments

Ecological Indicators
The influence of forest tree species and their mineral nitrogen (N) uptake strategies on soil N cycling and its subsequent impact on stream nitrate concentrations remains poorly understood. We measured soil (de)nitrification, key (de)nitrifier abundances,

A Systematic Review of Biofloc Technology and Periphyton in Giant Freshwater Prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) Aquaculture

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
Biofloc technology and periphyton‐based systems enhance the sustainable production of giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii). A PRISMA‐guided review (2005 – 2024) shows that BFT improves survival (75 – 78 %) and feed efficiency, while periphyton supports natural productivity in grow‐out.
