Effect of strategies for controlling spontaneous plants on the quality of soil organic matter and soil fertility

Revista Ciência Agronômica, 2021
Soil organic matter (SOM) and the chemical attributes of the soil are important indicators of soil quality. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of strategies for controlling spontaneous plants on SOM quality and soil fertility in an area of

Substrates used in SIR assays can inhibit basal respiration in rewetted soil [PDF]

, 2010
Respiration assays are routinely used for investigating microbial metabolic activity in soil, but usually after a period of "conditioning" whereby dry soil is rewetted and incubated for a period of days.

Chronobiology of Cancer: How Aging Fuels Oncogenesis at the Molecular Level

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the key biological pathways linking aging with cancer development and progression. In the upper left, cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation, toxins, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes DNA damage and genomic instability, whereas age‐related decline in repair mechanisms, such as ATM/ATR, BER, and NER ...

Fire severity influences the response of soil microbes to a boreal forest fire

Environmental Research Letters, 2016
Wildfire activity is projected to increase in boreal forests as a result of climate warming. The consequences of increased wildfire activity for soil carbon (C) storage in boreal forests may depend on the sensitivity of soil microbes to fire severity ...

Extending Service Beyond Active Duty: Generalizability of Rheumatoid Arthritis Research Conducted Among U.S. Veterans

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Biomedical research involving United States Veterans continues to advance healthcare beyond the Veterans Health Administration. This is particularly true in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), where Veteran‐centric research has uncovered novel insights into pathogenesis, risk factors, and disease manifestations, informing clinical care and research across both ...

Seasonal evolution of soil respiration in a mixed forestry plantation of walnuts (Juglans × intermedia Carr.) and alders (Alnus cordata (Loisel.) Duby) in Domaine de Restinclières (France) [PDF]

, 2012
The ecological intensification of crops is proposed as a solution to the growing demand of agricultural and forest resources, in opposition to intensive monocultures. The introduction of mixed cultures as mixtures between nitrogen fixing species and non

Chronic nitrogen additions reduce total soil respiration and microbial respiration in temperate forest soils at the Harvard Forest

, 2004
At the Harvard Forest Long-term Ecological Research Site Chronic Nitrogen Amendment Study, a red pine and a mixed deciduous stand showed immediate changes in soil respiration following nitrogen additions (low N: 5 g N m−2 per year; high N: 15 g N m−2 per

The influence of long-term organic and mineral fertilization on soil organic matter

Soil and Water Research, 2008
Parameters evaluating soil organic matter quantity (organic C and N content) and quality (hot water extractable C content, aliphatic compounds, microbial biomass C content, basal respiration activity) were determined in soils differently fertilized (NPK -
