Impact of Fumigants on Soil Microbial Communities [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2001
ABSTRACT Agricultural soils are typically fumigated to provide effective control of nematodes, soilborne pathogens, and weeds in preparation for planting of high-value cash crops. The ability of soil microbial communities to recover after treatment with fumigants was examined using culture-dependent (Biolog) and culture ...

Short-term application of chicken manure under different nitrogen rates alters structure and co-occurrence pattern but not diversity of soil microbial community in wheat field

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Manure application is an effective way to improve the utilization efficiency of organic resources and alleviate the adverse effects of long-term application of chemical fertilizers. However, the impact of applying manure under different nitrogen rates on

Changes in vegetation types affect soil microbial communities in tropical islands of southern China

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Soil microbial communities are the key drivers of nutrient cycling in ecosystems. However, the functional response of soil microbial community composition to contrasting vegetation types in tropical coral islands is still unclear.

Compared to conventional, ecological intensive management promotes beneficial proteolytic soil microbial communities for agro-ecosystem functioning under climate change-induced rain regimes [PDF]

, 2020
Projected climate change and rainfall variability will affect soil microbial communities, biogeochemical cycling and agriculture. Nitrogen (N) is the most limiting nutrient in agroecosystems and its cycling and availability is highly dependent on ...

Microbial carbon mineralization in tropical lowland and montane forest soils of Peru [PDF]

, 2016
Climate change is affecting the amount and complexity of plant inputs to tropical forest soils. This is likely to influence the carbon (C) balance of these ecosystems by altering decomposition processes e.g., "positive priming effects" that accelerate ...

Geobacter, Anaeromyxobacter and Anaerolineae populations are enriched on anodes of root exudate-driven microbial fuel cells in rice field soil [PDF]

, 2015
Plant-based sediment microbial fuel cells (PMFCs) couple the oxidation of root exudates in living rice plants to current production. We analysed the composition of the microbial community on anodes from PMFC with natural rice field soil as substratum for
