While soil nitrogen (N) losses under drip irrigation water and fertilizer management have become a key issue in global environmental N pollution, no current systematic review of this exists the literature. Drawn from Web Science Core Collection database, 290 related articles were identified as research subjects (1991–2022). To reveal basic characteristics, power, hotspots future perspectives field, an in-depth bibliometrics analysis graphical knowledge display undertaken by using CiteSpace software. By analyzing evolution process keywords, greenhouse gases, use efficiency crop yield been field recent years. Irrigation systems, moisture, fertigation always core topics. The focus on pathways has gradually shifted nitrate (NO3-) leaching alone to comprehensive consideration multiple including NO3- leaching, emissions N2O, NH3 NO. corresponding strategies concentrating application amounts diversified methods involving combinations amounts, types. Moreover, development widespread new technologies exogenous additives further enriched direction management. Future still needs explore how balance high yields minimize impacts, which will provide effective for controlling agricultural non-point source pollution mitigating warming.

Effects of crop rotation on sugar beet growth through improving soil physicochemical properties and microbiome

Industrial Crops and Products, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 212, P. 118331 - 118331

Published: March 9, 2024

Soil microorganisms are critical to the sustainable development of agroecosystems. Continuous cropping obstacles refer crop yield reduction in continuous cropping. Crop diversity can be increased through rotation, improving soil-plant interactions alleviate obstacles. In our study, rubber dandelion (Taraxacum kok-saghyz Rodin, TKS) and sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) were used for rotation. A two-year field experiment was conducted using a randomized uniform grid design investigate effects on soil microbial community structure physicochemical properties, supplemented by pot experiment. We hypothesized that could change microbiome, improve ultimately promote growth beet. The results showed compared with cropping, rotation enhance microbiome increase abundances Actinobacteria Streptomyces. available nitrogen, potassium organic matter contents higher than soil. addition, urease activity after significantly increased. general, biomass obstacle.

Using enzyme activities as an indicator of soil fertility in grassland - an academic dilemma

Frontiers in Plant Science, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 14

Published: July 7, 2023

Grasslands play an important role in conserving natural biodiversity and providing ecosystem functions services for societies. Soil fertility is property grassland, the monitoring of soil can provide crucial information to optimize productivity sustainability. Testing various physiochemical properties related usually relies on traditional measures, such as destructive sampling, pre-test treatments, labor-intensive procedures, costly laboratory measurements, which are often difficult perform. However, enzyme activity reflecting intensity biochemical reactions a reliable indicator thus assays could be efficient alternative evaluate fertility. Here, we review latest research features enzymes catalyzing processes that convert organic materials available plant nutrients, increase carbon nutrient cycling, enhance microbial activities improve We focus complex relationships among functions, biomass, properties, soil/crop management practices. highlight biochemistry rationale using indicate Finally, discuss limits disadvantages potential new molecular tool suggestions reliability feasibility proposed alternative.

Deposition of eroded soil significantly increases bacterial community diversity and soil multifunctionality in a Mollisol agricultural ecosystem

Ecological Indicators, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 159, P. 111660 - 111660

Published: Feb. 1, 2024

Topography plays a significant role in shaping soil biogeochemical cycling through its influence on the composition and function of bacterial communities. However, little is known about how community bacteria interlinked with multifunctionality across an eroding landscape. Herein, understanding relationship between microbes crucial for promoting sustainable agriculture. In this study, we examined microbial responses to topographic gradients (flat slope, middle lower valley) Mollisol sloping The poorly drained sites slope valley exhibited higher richness species greater diversity at operational taxonomic unit level compared flat slope. Notably, changes induced by topography bulk density, moisture, organic carbon, total nitrogen, dissolved nitrates, ammonium were significantly correlated taxonomy functional composition. Soil was 8.98–14.31% than other positions. terms relative abundance bacteria, subsets (OTUs) Chloroflexi, Proteobacteria, Firmicutes identified as key contributors multifunctionality.
