Abstract Biochar and organic fertilizer are widely supported to maintain crop production sustainable development of agroecosystems. However, it is unclear how biochar alone or in combination regulate soil functional microbiomes their relationships ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF). Herein, a long-term (started 2013) field experiment, containing five fertilization treatments, was employed explore the effects applications on EMF (based 18 indicators productivity, nutrient supply, element cycling, microbial biomass) bulk rhizosphere [normalizing abundances 64 genes related carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), sulphur (S) cycles]. Compared with single-chemical fertilization, inputs significantly enhanced most ecosystem-single functions and, particular, increased by 18.7–30.1%; taxa C-N-P-S cycles varying degree. The combined application showed better improvement these compared using them individually. Most populations soil, especially involved C degradation, nitrification, nitrate-reduction, P mineralization, S cycling positive associations at different threshold levels, which ultimately regulated pH availability. These results highlight strong links between agroecosystem functions, as well providing scientific support for inclusion agricultural services amendments. Graphical

Optimizing sustainable agriculture: A comprehensive review of agronomic practices and their impacts on soil attributes

Journal of Environmental Management, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 364, С. 121487 - 121487

Опубликована: Июнь 17, 2024

This study explores agronomic management (AM) effects on soil parameters under diverse conditions. Investigating tillage practices (TP), nutrient (NM), crop rotation (CR), organic matter (OM), irrigation (IM), and mulching (MS), it aims to reveal impacts productivity, availability, microbial activity, overall health. Varied TP affect quality through compaction, porosity, erosion risk. Proper NM is vital for cycling, preventing imbalances acidification. CR disrupts pest cycles, reduces weed pressure, boosts recycling. OM enhances by influencing carbon, pH, fertility, water retention. Optimizing IM regulates content without inducing waterlogging. MS contributes content, retention, structure, temperature-moisture regulation, benefiting biota, aggregation, health agricultural productivity. The review emphasizes integrated nutrient, CR, management's positive impact fertility activity. Different variations production. Judicious implementation of these essential sustainable agriculture. synthesis identifies uncertainties proposes research directions optimizing productivity while ensuring environmental sustainability. Ongoing inquiry can guide a balanced approach between yields resilient stewardship future generations.

Utilization of Rhodopseudomonas palustris in Crop Rotation Practice Boosts Rice Productivity and Soil Nutrient Dynamics

Agriculture, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 14(5), С. 758 - 758

Using beneficial microorganisms, such as purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSB), has shown enormous potential for improving plant growth and agricultural production. However, the full extent of their benefits interactions with practices is yet to be fully understood. The present study aimed investigate use PNSB in crop rotation practice, focusing on its impact rice yield. experiment was conducted over two cropping seasons, djulis grown between a crop. shows that treatment increased concentration 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) plants, indicating enhanced photosynthesis. Moreover, when combined rotation, remarkably improved soil fertility. These resulted substantial increases tiller numbers (163%), leaf chlorophyll content (13%), lodging resistance (66%), compared untreated plants. also higher productive tillers per hill (112%), average grain (65%), fertility (26%). This led yield shoot dry weight (15%), harvest index (37%). findings clearly suggest incorporation strategies can significantly augment crops. insights, pivotal sustainable cultivation, hold simultaneously tackle pressing issues global food security climate change.

Legume-potato rotation affects soil physicochemical properties, enzyme activity, and rhizosphere metabolism in continuous potato cropping

Chemical and Biological Technologies in Agriculture, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 10(1)

Опубликована: Ноя. 22, 2023

Abstract Background Continuous cropping can reduce soil quality and affect rhizosphere metabolism, ultimately reducing crop yield. Crop rotation mitigate the damage caused by continuous cropping, but different patterns respond differently to metabolism. We investigated effects of on physicochemical properties, enzyme activities, microbial quantity, metabolism potato based a long-term field study from 2018 2022. The experiment was set up with following three treatments: ( Solanum tuberosum L.)-potato-potato-potato-potato (CK), potato-potato-potato-pea Pisum arvense L.)-potato (T1), potato-potato-potato-faba bean Vicia faba (T2). Results results showed that pea-potato (T1) bean-potato (T2) significantly improved properties enhanced activity, increased yield 21.19% 28.38%, respectively, compared crop. Non-targeted metabolomics analysis differential metabolites were mainly nucleotides, organic acids derivatives, flavonoids cropping. These are enriched in ABC transporter, purine pyrimidine phenylalanine pathways. Combined analyses legume-potato rotations quantity increasing tuber yields. In addition, correlation l -Tyrosine, Trans-Cinnamic acid, Guanine, Adenine) also strongly associated these measurements. Conclusions Therefore, we conclude modulate abundance function alter low molecular metabolite profile under conditions. Some important may play part cycling nutrients soil, making its better, raising activity enzymes, tubers. above indicate has positive effect soils. It lays solid foundation for revealing complex network metabolic pathways communities after legume rotation. Graphical

Fusarium Head Blight is one of the most devastating fungal diseases cereals worldwide, causing significant yield losses and affecting grain quality. The predominant role interactions within communities as well with members phytomicrobiome in disease onset development has gained increasing attention. Understanding diversity dynamics bacterial across different substrates colonized by spp. wheat fields can provide valuable insights into ecology lead to discovery native microorganisms biocontrol potential. In this study, associated soil, maize residues, grains, were studied based on metabarcoding sequencing 16S rRNA ITS2 regions six over two years characterized levels FHB pressure mycotoxin contamination. Overall, composition microbial primarily influenced substrate type followed geographic origins sampling time, notably for grains residues while soil microbiome was less impacted environmental fluctuations. Notably, our findings suggest that crop function a transient between microbiomes. addition, we found several taxa either strongly negatively correlated and/or DNA or mycotoxins including Cladosporium, Epicoccum, Paenibacillus, Curtobacterium, Pseudomonas, Pantoea, Sphingomonas, which could be potential antagonistic agents against Altogether, these novel field functioning their complex communities.
