Bacillus subtilis as microbial fertilizers contribute to avoiding the harmful effects of traditional agricultural and pesticides. However, there are many restrictions on practical application fertilizers. In this study, biochar formulations (BCMs) were prepared by loading with B. SL-44. Pot experiments conducted evaluate BCMs soil fertility, Fusarium wilt control, radish plant growth. The dramatically improved properties favored Compared SL-44 treatments, treatments increased physical-chemical activities several enzymes in soil.

The study focused on organic content increase a 20-year short rotation forest cycle with broadleaf woody plantations compared to nearby arable cropping system. Total fungi, Ascomycota Basidiomycota, quantified terms DNA copy number, specific probes using SYBR® Green I dye QuantStudio™ 3D digital PCR system (dPCR). Previously, next generation sequencing analysis general primer confirmed that Basidiomycota most represented phyla community composition significantly differed between treatments. A range key enzyme activities for C-cycle also assessed. (TOC), microbial biomass term dsDNA increased soil. TOC wood species, Salix Robina gave greatest (+30 20 % respectively), followed by Populus (+12), highly correlated showing same trend. three four times (average 3144 n copies µl−1 DNA) (1419 µl−1); almost absent (av. 94n µl−1) five six 490 µl−1). ascomycetes strongly TOC, whereas basidiomycetes did not. These findings showed represent largest portion agricultural soils even after 20-years they can be taken processes.

Forest gaps serve as crucial starting points for forest self-renewal. Within these gaps, soil enzymes play an essential role in driving nutrient transformation and species renewal. However, how gap renewal regulates fertility through enzyme across various depths remains unclear. This investigation delved into the dynamics of nutrients within karst at four developmental age stages: Infancy (<10 years), Youth (10–20 Middlescence (20–30 Elder (>30 years) different (0–10 cm, 10–20 20–30 cm). The study determined contents CNP activities such polyphenol oxidase, catalase, protease, alkaline phosphatase. Two-way ANOVA was employed to assess variations ages depths, along with their interaction. Redundancy analysis (RDA) used reveal correlations between indicators. results indicated that significantly influenced phosphatase, well total available nitrogen, phosphorus, organic carbon, alongside ratios N/P, C/N, C/P. Catalase activity, however, did not vary age, although depth parameters, excluding phosphorus C/N ratio. Notably, 0–10 cm layer, phosphatase carbon increased increase, followed by a significant decrease after middlescence stage. In layers, Alkaline oxidase activities, N/P initially decreased then increase. During Infancy, Youth, stages, Polyphenol protease contents, C/P generally increase or layer. RDA highlighted variational positive negative indicators during renewal, explanatory rates ranging from 88.05 % 94.67 layers. Overall, this suggests influences enzymes, content stoichiometry, modifying stoichiometric regulation ultimately sustaining via enzymes.
