Mulching practices manipulate the microbial community diversity and network of root-associated compartments in the Loess Plateau

Lixin Tian et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of different mulching practices on the bacterial and fungal diversity, composition, co-occurrence networks, and assembly in different compartments of broomcorn millet. The results showed that mulching measures had a significant impact on the compositions and structures of bacterial and fungal communities. Mulching reduced bacterial diversity and increased fungal diversity in the rhizosphere and root system.

Cover crops offset recalcitrant soil organic carbon losses under plastic-film mulching by altering microbial functional genes

Jeong Gu Lee et al.

Summary: This study investigates the microbial modulators and mechanisms of soil organic carbon (SOC) accumulation under plastic-film mulching (PFM) and the effects of cover crop residue (CR) incorporation. The results show that CR incorporation reduces SOC losses and increases mineral-associated carbon and SOC accumulation under PFM in organically cultivated maize.

Responses of soil enzyme activity and soil organic carbon stability over time after cropland abandonment in different vegetation zones of the Loess Plateau of China

Hongwei Xu et al.

Summary: The study showed that after cropland abandonment, there are significant differences in soil enzyme activity, SOC stability, and driving factors in different vegetation zones. In steppe and forest-steppe zones, soil enzyme activity increased while SOC stability decreased with recovery time; whereas in the forest zone, both parameters remained relatively stable. The changes in soil enzyme activity and SOC stability were closely related to vegetation diversity, coverage, and soil nutrient levels in different recovery sites.

Impacts of simulated nitrogen deposition on soil enzyme activity in a northern temperate forest ecosystem depend on the form and level of added nitrogen

Yun Li et al.

Summary: Extracellular enzymes in soil play a crucial role in nutrient cycling in the ecosystem. The effects of simulated nitrogen deposition on soil extracellular enzyme activity varied, with high-level N addition promoting the activity of certain enzymes while decreasing others. Additionally, the type and level of added nitrogen influenced the impact on soil extracellular enzyme activities, with NH4+-N having a stronger effect than NO3--N in most cases.

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.

Ecological stoichiometry of plant-soil-enzyme interactions drives secondary plant succession in the abandoned grasslands of Loess Plateau, China

Lie Xiao et al.

Summary: The study investigated the ecological stoichiometric interactions among plants, soils, and enzymes in the rhizosphere and their effects on secondary plant succession. Results indicated that rhizosphere stoichiometry is a powerful tool for evaluating plant-soil interactions in terrestrial ecosystems.

Effect of plastic film mulching on maize productivity and nitrogen use efficiency under organic farming in South Korea

Jeong Gu Lee et al.

Summary: The study investigated the impact of plastic film mulching on crop productivity and nutrient use efficiency in green manure amended soils. Plastic film mulching significantly improved soil temperature and moisture, enhanced inorganic nitrogen content during maize cropping seasons, and increased productivity and nitrogen use efficiency.
