The microbial biomass in soil is an active and living constituent of organic matter. It both a storage pool source plant nutrients that can be used as required. In addition, each indicator evaluates quality health from different perspectives, which are not necessarily very different. This study was conducted to compare some physical, chemical, biochemical characteristics the soils forest (SF) deforested (SDE) areas located on slopes Kirazlıköprü area, previously due dam construction Bartın province northwestern Turkey. Soil samples were taken topsoil surface (0–5 cm) determine SF SDE sites. N (Nmic) determined by chloroform fumigation extraction, Cmic/Nmic ratio Nmic/Ntotal percentage calculated using original values. Total N, Nmic values higher area. lowest highest total (Ntotal) contents varied between 1.50 3.47 g kg−1 0.91 1.46 kg−1, respectively. Similarly, 75.56 143.42 μg g−1 10.40 75.96 g−1, A statistical analysis revealed mean Ntotal differed (p < 0.05) soils. 8.79 (±1.65) 5.64 (±1.09), respectively, difference found fields 0.05). Our findings indicate community structure varies according site. As result, it concluded deforestation erosion area led removal soil; deterioration amount activity biomass; and, consequently, losses degradation quality.

This study investigates the role of abscisic acid (ABA) in bolstering drought resistance plants, employing “Panjiang Sophora viciifolia” as subject. A simulated scenario was created using polyethylene glycol (PEG-6000) to examine impact varying intensities (0%, 5%, 20% PEG) and ABA concentrations (0, 10, 50, 100, 200 mg·L−1) on germination physiological parameters viciifolia. The results showed that absence ABA, rate (GR), potential (GP), index (GI) S. viciifolia seeds initially increased then decreased with escalating PEG-induced stress. At stress levels 5% 20%, activities peroxidase (POD) catalase (CAT), along malondialdehyde (MDA) content, were significantly higher than control (CK) (p < 0.05). In response stress, adapted by modulating behavior, augmenting content osmoregulatory substances, boosting activity protective enzymes. addition markedly enhanced GR, GE, GI, POD, superoxide dismutase (SOD), CAT, well MDA proline (Pro) under conditions Relative CK, low (10–100 resulted GP, SOD, MDA, Pro levels; whereas, at a concentration (200 mg·L−1), although GI decreased, increased. Through principal component analysis membership function comprehensive evaluation, it determined administering 50 mg·L−1 most effective enhancing seedlings.

White clover (Trifolium repens L.) is cultivated worldwide as a forage crop, green manure, and turfgrass, valued for its adaptability broad distribution. Although numerous studies have investigated the adverse effects of drought stress on white growth yield, comprehensive bibliometric review has been lacking. To address this gap, we analyzed relevant publications from Web Science Core Collection (1990–2024) using VOSviewer (1.6.19.0) R (4.3.1) software. Our findings reveal consistent annual increase in research outputs, indicating sustained scholarly efforts to enhance clover’s tolerance. China, New Zealand, Australia, United States, France lead publication volume maintain active international collaborations. Keyword co-occurrence analysis underscores importance phenotypic, physiological, molecular mechanisms linked resistance, particularly regarding plant yield. Emerging directions include further exploration transgenic technologies pathways bolster resilience under water-limited conditions. Overall, these insights offer theoretical foundation future provide valuable reference advancing sustainable agricultural practices arid semi-arid environments.

Cultivation included ( Zea mays ), velvet beans Mucuna pruriens soybeans Glycine max vetch Vicia sativa ). After harvest, seeds were sown across all 48 plots to evaluate influence preceding rotation properties yield. Hypotheses posited in study suggested that nitrogen fertilizer application, residues positively fertility. The further argues utilization cover crops aids retention within enhances results processed utilizing a two‐way analysis variance (ANOVA) with interaction post hoc comparisons. findings confirm found fertilizers have significant properties. Crop rotations “velvet beans‐maize” “soybeans‐maize” increased fertility by 10%–15% compared “vetch‐maize” monocultures.
