Effects of Biological Nitrogen Fixation and Nitrogen Deposition on Soil Microbial Communities in Karst Grassland Ecosystems

Microorganisms
Diverse exogenous nitrogen (N) sources have a considerable impact on microbial community structure in terrestrial ecosystems. Legume plants and N deposition can relieve N limitations and increase net primary productivity.

Dietary Baicalin Supplementation Can Enhance the Growth Performance of Weaned Piglets and Maintain the Intestinal Barrier Integrity

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
This research innovatively illustrates baicalin’s multifaceted mechanisms in enhancing piglets’ intestinal health: modulating bile acid metabolism via probiotics, reinforcing tight junction proteins (ZO‐1/claudin), suppressing TLR4/NF‐κB‐mediated inflammation, whereas promoting growth and reducing diarrhea.

Effects of Cellulase and Lactobacillus plantarum Supplementation on Fermentation Characteristics, In Situ Degradability, and Microbial Community Dynamics of Apple Pomace Silage

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
This study aimed to investigate the effects of cellulase and Lactobacillus plantarum on the silage quality, in situ digestibility, and microbial communities of apple pomace silage. The combined supplementation of cellulase and Lactobacillus plantarum in apple pomace silage improved fermentation quality and enhanced rumen utilization efficiency.

Initial microbiome and tree root status structured the soil microbial community discrepancy of the subtropical pine-oak forest in a large urban forest park

Frontiers in Microbiology
Plant–microbe–soil interactions control over the forest biogeochemical cycling. Adaptive plant–soil interactions can shape specific microbial taxa in determining the ecosystem functioning.

Soil microbial communities in restored and unrestored coastal dune ecosystems in California [PDF]

, 2020
Most restoration projects involving invasive plant eradication tend to focus on plant removal with little consideration given to how these invasives change soil microbial communities.

Selenomethionine Regulates the Arachidonic Acid Metabolism‐Ferroptosis‐Inflammation Axis to Ameliorate Colitis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Selenomethionine can ameliorate arachidonic acid‐induced colonic injury through synergistic mechanisms, including alleviating inflammatory responses, improving barrier integrity, enhancing antioxidant capacity by upregulating selenoprotein expression, selectively regulating AA metabolism to reduce pro‐inflammatory oxylipins and promote the production ...

Soil Microbial Community Changes in Wooded Mountain Pastures due to Simulated Effects of Cattle Grazing [PDF]

, 2018
The effect of cattle activity on pastures can be subdivided into three categories of disturbances: herbage removal, dunging and trampling. The objective of this study was to assess separately or in combination the effect of these factors on the potential

Niche differentiation is spatially and temporally regulated in the rhizosphere. [PDF]

, 2020
The rhizosphere is a hotspot for microbial carbon transformations, and is the entry point for root polysaccharides and polymeric carbohydrates that are important precursors to soil organic matter (SOM).

Insights into the association of Nicotiana tabacum health with eukaryotic microbial community and environmental factors

Frontiers in Plant Science
As an important cash crop, Nicotiana tabacum’s yield and quality are influenced by various factors, yet the correlations between its health status, microbial community, and environmental factors remain largely unexplored.

Do legume-based intercrops improve soil fauna and soil microbial diversity? Example of the cowpea-cassava intercropping system in Northern Vietnam (Yen Bai Province) [PDF]

, 2019
Industrial agriculture has allowed food safety through the crop homogenization and the massive use of pesticides and chemicalfertilizers. This intensive agriculture has positively influenced the crop productivity but has also negatively affected the ...
