The ecological hazards of profenofos revealed by soil beneficial-bacteria, plant seedlings, and plasmid nicking assays: A short-term toxicity investigation

Plant Stress
Excessive and indiscriminate use of pesticides may adversely affect the growth and activity of both crop plants and soil microbial populations. The reported study was conducted to evaluate the toxicity of profenofos (PF; an organophosphate insecticide ...

BENEFICIAL RHIZOSPHERE PSEUDOMONADS

Ecological genetics, 2008
Among the many bacteria present on and around the root, Pseudomonas bacteria are (among) the best root colonizers and therefore very suitable to apply for beneficial purposes. In this chapter, we discuss the possibilities to use such bacteria for the following purposes: fertilization of the plant, stimulation of plant growth and yield, reduction of ...

Soil Type Controls the Effects of the Nitrification Inhibitor DMPP on Nitrate Leaching and Mineral N Retention Under Simulated Heavy Rainfall

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nitrate (NO3−) leaching is a major nitrogen (N) loss pathway in agriculture and may increase with more frequent heavy rainfall. Nitrification inhibitors, such as 3,4‐dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP), can reduce these losses, but their effectiveness under frequent heavy rainfall events remains unclear, which limits their targeted ...

Permafrost thawing by soil transplantation alters the functional genetic potential of the alpine permafrost microbiome

Geoderma
Global warming has led to permafrost thawing in mid-latitude alpine regions, resulting in greater availability of carbon (C) and nutrients in soils. However, how these changes will impact the functional genetic potential of permafrost soil microbiomes ...

Microbial and Non‐Microbial Biostimulants for Soil Health in Managed Agricultural Systems: A Scientometric Analysis of Bioinputs From 2021 to 2025

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Biostimulants and related bioinputs encompass microbial and non‐microbial strategies used to improve plant performance, nutrient‐use efficiency, stress resilience, and soil functioning. Aim For this study, plant biostimulants were operationally defined as substances or microorganisms applied to enhance nutrient‐use efficiency ...

Insights into enhanced, divergent, and additive responses to single and combined hypoxia-salt stress

BMC Plant Biology
Plants frequently encounter simultaneous stressors, requiring complex adaptive responses across regulatory levels. Although morphological and metabolic effects of combined hypoxia-salt stress are known in halophytes, the transcriptional mechanisms ...

Effect of saline irrigation on Tetragonia tetragonioides (Pall.) Kuntze grown on different soil types under greenhouse conditions

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change and population growth are major challenges for sustainable food production, particularly in regions affected by water scarcity and soil salinization. In this context, halophytes represent promising candidates as alternative and sustainable food crops for salt‐affected areas.

Effect of bio‐fertilization and edapho‐climatic conditions on chickpea nodulation, grain yields, and seed protein in a Mediterranean context: a meta‐analysis approach

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) serve as a protein‐rich staple, particularly in Mediterranean countries, where they are often grown in marginal and water‐stressed areas. This meta‐analysis synthesized evidence from peer‐reviewed publications across Mediterranean countries to assess how chickpea rhizobial inoculation influences chickpea ...

Beyond a dual role: how Purpureocillium lilacinum reprograms citrus metabolism for integrated biocontrol and growth promotion

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Plants harbor complex microbial communities that are fundamental to their health and productivity. Among them, endophytic fungi such as Purpureocillium lilacinum establish mutualistic associations, offering dual benefits as plant growth promoters and biocontrol agents.

Characterizing vineyard‐specific differences in Pinot Noir grape composition in relation to soil properties and rhizosphere microbial communities

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Grape berry chemical composition is closely linked to wine quality and provides important information for vineyard management. However, the relationships between berry composition, vineyard soil conditions and rhizosphere microbial communities remain insufficiently understood.
