Polyethylene mulch film (PEM) is widely utilized in garlic cultivation, significantly enhancing yield. However, the prolonged use of this material leads to serious environmental issues that adversely affect soil health and plant growth. To promote adoption biodegradable (BDM) we investigate effects BDMs with thicknesses 0.006 mm, 0.008 0.010 mm on growth properties, comparing them commonly used PEM mm. The results indicated agronomic traits were improved under both compared no mulching, yield increases ranging from 75.42% 90.39%. highest was observed BDM Most above-ground did not exhibit significant differences between BDMs, although a few showed slight quality characteristics bulbs, including contents soluble sugar, vitamin C, allicin, differ BDMs. Soil temperature higher mulching. In comparison application enhanced potassium availability soil. Furthermore, activities catalase, phosphatase, invertase notably increased suggesting type could improve physicochemical properties Additionally, remained intact throughout low-temperature overwintering period, began partially degrade as temperatures rose March April, exhibited considerable fragmentation during maturity harvest periods garlic. Its degradation rate well aligned requirements Taken together, these findings suggested particularly effective, resulting increase an appropriate rate. These provided valuable reference for selection cultivation.

Biodegradable plastics (BPs) are promoted as eco-friendly alternatives to conventional plastics. However, compared microplastics (MPs), they degrade rapidly into biodegradable (BMPs), which may lead a more significant accumulation of BMPs in the environment. This review systematically compares and MPs, summarizes current knowledge on their environmental behaviors impacts ecosystems human health, offers recommendations for future research. detected water, sediments, indoor dust, food, marine organisms, samples. Compared prone transformations, such photodegradation biodegradation, results shorter migration distance across different matrices. Like can adsorb pollutants transport them enhancing toxicity health risks through Trojan horse effect. Studies indicate that negatively impact terrestrial aquatic than MPs by disrupting nutrient cycling inhibiting plant animal growth. In vivo vitro research also shows BMP degradation products increase bioavailability, exacerbating neurotoxicity overall toxicity. findings BMPs' effects remain inconsistent. Further evaluation trade-offs between biodegradability is needed address these uncertainties.

ABSTRACT Long‐term positioning experiments have demonstrated significant benefits in agricultural production and environmental protection. Faba bean‐wheat intercropping with nitrogen fertiliser can effectively mitigate the occurrence of faba bean wilt disease. Identifying optimal application rate is essential for enhancing disease control efficacy intercropping. This study aimed to investigate long‐term effects varying levels on physical, chemical, biological changes rhizosphere soil under conditions examine their relationship incidence In a 9‐year field experiment, two treatments 1 year (IF‐1) 9 years (IF‐9) were established four (N0: 0 kg ha −1 ; N1: 45 N2: 90 N3: 135 ). Rhizosphere from plants was collected assess corresponding indicators. promoted growth controlled by improving structure fertility quality (SQI). Under different levels, certain physical properties (moisture content, macroaggregate proportion, MWD, GMD) chemical (SOM, total carbon, SOC, nutrients, available nutrients) peaked N2 (90 ), SQI showing similar trend. Additionally, enhanced enzyme activity rhizosphere, reshaped microbial community composition, maximised beneficial microbes, reduced abundance pathogenic fungus Fusarium, achieved N2. at significantly improved, enhanced, plant pathogens modifying composition. alleviated disease, healthy growth, maintained function.
