The effect of root exudates on rhizosphere water dynamics [PDF]
Most water and nutrients essential for plant growth travel across a thin zone of soil at the interface between roots and soil, termed the rhizosphere. Chemicals exuded by plant roots can alter the fluid properties, such as viscosity, of the water phase, potentially with impacts on plant productivity and stress tolerance.

Effects of Plant Genotype and Growth Stage on the Betaproteobacterial Communities Associated with Different Potato Cultivars in Two Fields [PDF]
Bacterial communities in the rhizosphere are dynamic and susceptible to changes in plant conditions. Among the bacteria, the betaproteobacteria play key roles in nutrient cycling and plant growth promotion, and hence the dynamics of their community ...

Effect of Bacteria and Amoebae on Rhizosphere Phosphatase Activity [PDF]
The contributions of various components of soil microflora and microfauna to rhizosphere phosphatase activity were determined with hydroponic cultures. Three treatments were employed: (i) plants alone ( Bouteloua gracilis (H.B.K.) Lag.

Rhizosphere Bacterial Networks, but Not Diversity, Are Impacted by Pea-Wheat Intercropping
Plant-plant associations, notably cereal-legume intercropping, have been proposed in agroecology to better value resources and thus reduce the use of chemical inputs in agriculture.

Effect of Root Agglutinin on Microbial Activities in the Rhizosphere [PDF]
A total of 220 bacterial isolates were obtained from pea rhizosphere and nonrhizosphere samples. Of these samples, 100 isolates were chosen randomly to test for their agglutinative reaction against pea root exudate. The percentage of positive agglutination of bacteria isolated from the nonrhizosphere sample was significantly lower than that of bacteria

The plant rhizosphere underlies the crosstalk between plant and soil and has a crucial role in plant growth and development under various environments. We examined the effect of temperature rise on the rhizosphere environment of soybean roots to clarify ...

Plant Rhizosphere Effects on Metal Mobilization and Transport [PDF]
The myriad of human activities including strategic and energy development at various DOE installations have resulted in the contamination of soils and waterways that can seriously threaten human and ecosystem health. Development of efficacious and economical remediation technologies is needed to ameliorate these immensely costly problems ...

Reducing water use by alternate-furrow irrigation with livestock wastewater reduces antibiotic resistance gene abundance in the rhizosphere but not in the non-rhizosphere [PDF]
One effective approach to treating large amounts of wastewater produced during livestock production is to use it to irrigate crops. However, antibiotic compounds and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) associated with livestock wastewater may enter the ...
