Abstract Diversification of agricultural practices, including changes in crop rotation, intercropping or cover cropping, influence the soil microbiome. Here impact tillage and diversification on microbiome is reported, being one few boreal studies. The field experiment consisted four treatments with replications all having a short cereal rotation practice namely an oat ( Avena sativa ) – spring barley Hordeum vulgare wheat Triticum aestivum for past 10 years until 2018. During that period two were conventionally tilled moldboard ploughing whereas other no-tillage treatments. From growing season 2018 fall 2020 main was barley. first conventional treatment diversified English ryegrass Lolium perenne as undersown next three seasons. continued only. second had winter rapeseed 2019. Bulk soils sampled May before then October 2018, 2019, 2020. results showed clear effect beta-diversity increase fungal richness. Barley monoculture interrupted resulted minor change bacterial community composition. Other alpha diversity measures did not react to nor gene copy abundances involved N cycle. In conclusion profound hindering diversification.

Is there any relationship between plant nutrition and human health? The overall response to this question is very positive, a strong the of plants humans has been reported in literature. nutritional status edible consumed by can have negative or positive impact on health. This review was designed assess importance bioactive compounds for health under umbrella sustainable agriculture. With respect first research question, it found that bioactives (e.g., alkaloids, carotenoids, flavonoids, phenolics, terpenoids) crucial role due their therapeutic benefits, potentiality depends several factors, including botanical, environmental, clinical attributes. Plant could be produced using tissue culture tools (as kind agro-biotechnological method), especially cases underexploited endangered plants. Bioactive production many climate change (heat stress, drought, UV radiation, ozone, elevated CO2), environmental pollution, problematic soils (degraded, saline/alkaline, waterlogged, etc.). Under previously mentioned stresses, reviewing literature, association depending kinds stress observed correlation (or growth factors) might explain these Their accumulation stressed increase tolerance roles. results study are keeping with previous observational studies, which confirmed start from contents, humans. report analyzes pictorial presentation.

Plant-associated fungi are incredibly diverse, comprising over a million species of mycorrhiza, endophytes, saprophytes and pathogens worldwide. This diverse fungal community is highly important for plant health. Many effective biocontrol agents that can kill or suppress pathogens, with pathogen found both individual microorganisms plant-associated consortia. Meanwhile, increased diversity aboveground corresponds to an increase in below-ground diversity, which contributes turn improved rhizosphere soil health suppression. In this review, we discuss the role disease suppression various mechanisms by mycorrhizal endophytic combat pathogenic fungi. We also array diagnostic tools, well-established newly developed, revolutionising detection analysis.

Agricultural intensification contributes to global food security and well-being by supplying the demand of a growing human population. However, ongoing land-use change seriously affect abundance, diversity distribution species, besides many other impacts, thereby threatening functioning ecosystems worldwide. Despite accumulating evidence that current agricultural model is unsustainable, we are far from understanding consequences functional loss for ecosystem service supply potential long-term threats well-being. In this review, propose conceptual framework understand relationships between also considers agroecosystem health. To end, identify most commonly assumed linking regulating provisioning services their importance well-being, emphasising serious knowledge gaps in individual pathways framework.
