Soil characteristics more strongly influence soil bacterial communities than land-use type [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2011
To gain insight into the factors driving the structure of bacterial communities in soil, we applied real-time PCR, PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoreses, and phylogenetic microarray approaches targeting the 16S rRNA gene across a range of different land usages in the Netherlands.

pH-Related Changes in Soil Bacterial Communities in the Sanjiang Plain, Northeast China

Microorganisms, 2023
Soil bacteria are crucial components of terrestrial ecosystems, playing an important role in soil biogeochemical cycles. Although bacterial community diversity and composition are regulated by many abiotic and biotic factors, how soil physiochemical ...

Evaluation of rice–legume–rice cropping system on grain yield, nutrient uptake, nitrogen fixation, and chemical, physical, and biological properties of soil [PDF]

, 2009
To achieve higher yields and better soil quality under rice–legume–rice (RLR) rotation in a rainfed production system, we formulated integrated nutrient management (INM) comprised of Azospirillum (Azo), Rhizobium (Rh), and phosphate-solubilizing bacteria

Glyphosate effects on soil rhizosphere-associated bacterial communities

Science of The Total Environment, 2016
Glyphosate is one of the most widely used herbicides in agriculture with predictions that 1.35 million metric tons will be used annually by 2017. With the advent of glyphosate tolerant (GT) cropping more than 10 years ago, there is now concern for non-target effects on soil microbial communities that has potential to negatively affect soil functions ...

Zonal Soil Type Determines Soil Microbial Responses to Maize Cropping and Fertilization. [PDF]

, 2016
Soil types heavily influence ecological dynamics. It remains controversial to what extent soil types shape microbial responses to land management changes, largely due to lack of in-depth comparison across various soil types.

Effect of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene on soil bacterial communities

Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology, 2008
To gain insight into the impact of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) on soil microbial communities, we characterized the bacterial community of several TNT-contaminated soils from two sites with different histories of contamination and concentrations of TNT.

Bacterial diversity and community composition changes in paddy soils that have different parent materials and fertility levels

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2021
Parent materials and the fertility levels of paddy soils are highly variable in subtropical China. Bacterial diversity and community composition play pivotal roles in soil ecosystem processes and functions.

Extractable nitrogen and microbial community structure respond to grassland restoration regardless of historical context and soil composition. [PDF]

, 2015
Grasslands have a long history of invasion by exotic annuals, which may alter microbial communities and nutrient cycling through changes in litter quality and biomass turnover rates.

The legacy of bacterial invasions on soil native communities [PDF]

Environmental Microbiology, 2020
Summary Soil microbial communities are often not resistant to the impact caused by microbial invasions, both in terms of structure and functionality, but it remains unclear whether these changes persist over time. Here, we used three strains of Escherichia coli O157:H7 (

Shift in microbial communities mediated by vegetation-soil characteristics following subshrub encroachment in a semi-arid grassland

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Subshrub encroachment is a frequently occurring phenomenon in arid and semi-arid area, altering the plant community structure and function. However, the effects of the encroachment process on soil bacterial communities are poorly understood on the Loess ...
