Topsoil Organic Carbon Content [PDF]
, 2016 Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a key soil component. SOC stores large amounts of carbon and it also affects water fluxes as well as the availability of nutrients. Soil water fluxes are impacted by SOC directly due to its effect upon soil hydraulic parameters.

Effects of acid rain on competitive releases of Cd, Cu, and Zn from two natural soils and two contaminated soils in hunan, China [PDF]
, 2007 Leaching experiments of rebuilt soil columns with two simulated acid rain solutions (pH 4.6– 3.8) were conducted for two natural soils and two artificial contaminated soils from Hunan, southcentralChina, to study effects of acid rain on competitive ...

The impacts of no-tillage and conventional tillage on some hydraulic characteristics of topsoil in the mediterranean climate [PDF]
, 2007 Soil tillage is the guiding component of soil management and consequently has far-reaching implication for agroecosystems. Understanding structures and functions of soil under conventional tillage and no-tillage is an essential requirement for any future

Bioenergy Cropping Reduces the Spatiotemporal Scaling of Soil Bacterial Biodiversity
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Consistent with patterns observed in plant and animal communities, soil bacterial communities exhibit significant species–time–area and phylogenetic–time–area relationships independent of nested structure. Bioenergy cropping significantly reduces the spatiotemporal scaling rates, particularly in sandy loam soils.

Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management, 2023 Artisanal gold miners usually dispose of gold mine tailings in storage ponds or agricultural land used for farming. However, the gold mine tailings still contain heavy metals such as cadmium, copper, lead, and zinc and can lead to bioaccumulation in food

Natural Variation of NAR5 Determines Nitrogenase Activity and the Yield in Soybean
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identified NAR5, a gene encoding a subtilisin‐like protease, that regulates nitrogenase activity in soybean nodules. Overexpressing NAR5 delayed nodule senescence, enhancing nitrogenase activity, yield, and low‐nitrogen tolerance. The elite haplotype NAR5HapI‐1 linked to superior nitrogenase activity and greater seed weight has been ...
