Effects of Plastic versus Straw Mulching Systems on Soil Microbial Community Structure and Enzymes in Strawberry Cultivation

Katherine Munoz et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the impact of different mulching methods on soil microbiome and found that wheat straw mulching increased the abundance and enzyme activity of soil microorganisms, possibly due to changes in soil pH and organic matter input.

Effects of plastic and straw mulching on soil microbial P limitations in maize fields: Dependency on soil organic carbon demonstrated by ecoenzymatic stoichiometry

Zizong Ma et al.

Summary: Mulching rain-fed farmland ecosystems can affect soil organic carbon and microbial metabolic limitations. The type of mulch is related to soil enzyme activities, while soil nutrients, pH, and temperature influence the C and P limitations of soil microorganisms.

Recognizing the hidden half in wheat: root system attributes associated with drought tolerance

Chaonan Li et al.

Summary: Improving drought tolerance in wheat is crucial, and understanding key genes and quantitative trait loci related to root traits is important. Deep roots, optimal root length density and xylem diameter, and increased root surface area are traits contributing to drought tolerance in wheat.
