Perspectives on the misconception of levitating soil aggregates

SOIL, 2023
Abstract. Soil aggregation is an important process in nearly all soil and land-use types across the globe. Aggregates develop over time through a series of abiotic and biotic processes and interactions, including plant growth and decay, microbial activity, plant and microbial exudation, bioturbation, and physicochemical stabilization processes, and are

THE INFLUENCE OF HUMUS ON SOIL AGGREGATION

Journal of Soil Science, 1950
Summary S everal methods were used for extracting humus from a number of widely different soil types. The cementing power of the various humates was tested by mixing them with soil and determining the weight of water‐stable aggregates surviving wet sieving.

Soil Aggregation by Microorganisms Following Soil Fumigation

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 1958
Abstract The influence of autoclaving and of fumigation with eight chemical formulations upon microbial numbers in straw‐amended Peorian loess and the extent to which these treatments affect the degree of aggregation brought about by subsequently introduced inocula were determined. A mixed soil flora,

Importance of microbial communities at the root-soil interface for extracellular polymeric substances and soil aggregation in semiarid grasslands [PDF]

, 2021
In the past years, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) produced by soil microorganisms received an increasing interest, as they not only protect microbes against environmental stresses, but seem to play a pivotal role in soil structure formation as ...
