Introduction to Soil Microbiology

Mycologia, 1961
Characterizes soil microflora from descriptive and functional viewpoints; considers the biological processes that take place in the soil and their importance to soil fertility, plant growth, and environmental quality. Deals with the biochemical basis for soil processes, including microbial ecology, the carbon and nitrogen cycles, mineral transformation,

SOIL EXTRACT IN SOIL MICROBIOLOGY

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1958
Soil extract contains unidentified growth factors not present in other materials. In this study the extract was considered critically in so far as various treatments affect numbers of bacteria developing on soil-extract agar. Dilution of the extract to 1/10th concentration produced lower counts in most soils.

The Microbiology of Natural Soils

2010
Soil microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi, control ecosystem functioning through decomposition and nutrient cycling and may serve as indicators of land-use change and ecosystem health (Doran and Zeiss 2000; Waldrop et al. 2000; Yao et al. 2000). However, the study of soil microorganisms is difficult and our current understanding limited.

Soil Microbiological Properties

2016
Microorganisms are the smallest living systems, but their activities are numerous. They represent the largest and most diverse biotic group in soil. Fertile soil usually contains 106–109 bacteria per gram of soil (Tugel and Lewandowski 1999). They play a vital role in soil texture by their organic secretions.

Soil Solarization: Effects on Soil Microbiological Parameters

Journal of Plant Nutrition, 2007
Soil solarization, obtained by covering soil with plastic films, is a useful practice able to reduce soil pathogen populations. Light plastic films (LPFs) are nowadays widely used especially in open and greenhouse vegetable crop cultivations in Southern Italy, as they are able to raise soil temperature more than 20°C above air temperature.

Soil Biology and Microbiology

2003
Soil organisms are fauna and flora that spend all or part of their life in the soil. They play a vital role in the maintenance of soil fertility through processes such as the accumulation of soil organic matter, soil aggregation, and the mineralization of organic matter which releases nutrients available to higher plants. Moreover, many antibiotics are

MILESTONES IN SOIL MICROBIOLOGY

Soil Science, 2006
Soil organisms have critical roles in the function of the soil ecosystem. The 90 years of soil microbiology and biochemistry articles in Soil Science include basic and applied studies that advanced our understanding of the importance, complexity, and functionality of the soil ecosystem. Of the myriad of microbial activities, two important functions are

Soil Microbiological Parameters [PDF]

open access: possible, 2012
The soil is a tremendous biological laboratory. The roles of microorganisms are as follows: responsible for decomposition of litter, mineralisation process, nutrient cycling, accumulation of organic matter and formation of humus. There are three important groups of microbes: (a) bacteria, (b) fungi and (c) actinomycetes.
