Global soil nitrogen cycle pattern and nitrogen enrichment effects: Tropical versus subtropical forests

Ahmed S. Elrys et al.

Summary: Tropical and subtropical forest biomes have different soil nitrogen cycle patterns, with tropical forests being more conservative and subtropical forests being more leaky. Soil nitrogen dynamics in tropical forests are more sensitive to nitrogen deposition, which leads to increased nitrogen losses and decreased soil nitrogen retention. Dominant tree species also affect soil nitrogen cycling patterns in these biomes.

Metagenomic and machine learning-aided identification of biomarkers driving distinctive Cd accumulation features in the root-associated microbiome of two rice cultivars

Zhongyi Cheng et al.

Summary: Developing low-cadmium rice cultivars is a promising solution for food safety in Cd-contaminated farmlands. The root-associated microbiomes of rice play a role in enhancing rice growth and reducing Cd stress. However, the specific microbial taxon-associated Cd resistance mechanisms in different rice cultivars are still poorly understood.

Recovery patterns of soil bacterial and fungal communities in Chinese boreal forests along a fire chronosequence

Wei-qin Su et al.

Summary: Wildfires have significant and long-lasting impacts on forest ecosystems by altering soil properties and microbial communities. This study in the Chinese Great Khingan Mountains found that wildfires only significantly affected bacterial and fungal beta-diversity over a 29-year period. Additionally, soil properties like pH, dissolved organic C, and N played key roles in determining soil bacterial and fungal communities post-fire.

Effects of Soil Abiotic and Biotic Factors on Tree Seedling Regeneration Following a Boreal Forest Wildfire

Theresa S. Ibanez et al.

Summary: The study shows that high fire severity hampers seedling regeneration, while low burn severity promotes growth and regeneration of conifers. Different tree species respond differently to changes in soil properties following fire, affecting potential regeneration and species dominance in boreal forests. This highlights the importance of plant-soil-microbial feedbacks in promoting successful establishment in the face of increasingly severe fire regimes due to climate change.

A review of the effects of forest fire on soil properties

Alex Amerh Agbeshie et al.

Summary: Forest fires have significant effects on the biological and physico-chemical attributes of forest soils. Low-intensity fires can lead to changes in soil chemistry, increasing available nutrients and pH. High-intensity fires, however, result in complete combustion of organic matter and have severe negative impacts on forest soils.

Fire decreases gross mineralization rate but does not alter gross nitrification rate in boreal forest soils

Wei-Qin Su et al.

Summary: Wildfire has a significant impact on soil biogeochemistry, particularly on the nitrogen cycle in forest ecosystems. This study found that fire decreased gross N mineralization processes in boreal forest soils, leading to enhanced abundances of N-cycling genes. Additionally, the addition or removal of PyC did not have a significant effect on N transformation.

Mid-term effects of wildfire and salvage logging on gross and net soil nitrogen transformation rates in a Swedish boreal forest

T. S. Ibanez et al.

Summary: The study found that high-intensity wildfires significantly affect soil N transformation rates, while the impact of salvage logging is relatively minor. Four years after the fire, many aspects of the N cycle did not differ between burned and unburned areas, indicating substantial resilience of the N cycle to wildfires and salvage logging.

Soil organic carbon and clay content as deciding factors for net nitrogen mineralization and cereal yields in boreal mineral soils

Helena Soinne et al.

Summary: This study aimed to identify the roles of soil texture and organic matter in nitrogen mineralization and crop yield levels. The research found that in clay soils, net nitrogen mineralization was negatively correlated with the clay/C ratio, while in coarse-textured soils, agronomic nitrogen use efficiency improved with increasing soil organic carbon content. Clay soils with high clay content are at risk of low yield levels.

Soil Nutrients and Aggregate Composition of Four Soils with Contrasting Textures in a Long-Term Experiment

S. J. Ding et al.

Summary: Soil texture has a significant impact on soil nutrient conservation, affecting the distribution of soil aggregates and concentrations of elements such as organic carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Long-term cultivation influences soil particle composition, with coarse-textured soils storing more SOC, TN, and TP. Decreased sand content is beneficial for soil nutrient storage.

Soil erosion significantly reduces organic carbon and nitrogen mineralization in a simulated experiment

Liping Qiu et al.

Summary: Soil erosion has a significant impact on the mineralization of organic carbon and nitrogen in soils, leading to a decrease in C and N mineralization in both soil and aggregate fractions, especially in small aggregate sizes. These findings highlight the reduced OC and N mineralization in eroding sites, which should be taken into consideration when assessing greenhouse gas emissions in eroding environments.

Concurrent and rapid recovery of bacteria and protist communities in Canadian boreal forest ecosystems following wildfire

Zhongmin Dai et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that wildfire significantly impacts the diversity and community composition of bacteria and protists in forest ecosystems, but the recovery process differs across different wildfire recovery stages. Changes in bacterial and protist communities are primarily influenced by soil chemical properties and vegetation succession.

Effects of dynamic factors of erosion on soil nitrogen and phosphorus loss under freeze-thaw conditions

Yuting Cheng et al.

Summary: The experiment results under freeze-thaw conditions show that freeze-thaw action has a significant impact on sediment loss, nitrogen, and phosphorus loss, making the loss behavior of nitrogen and phosphorus unstable and increasing diversity among individual samples. Freeze-thaw action significantly enhances the effect of dynamic factors on phosphorus and nitrogen loss.

Effect of forest fire on soil microbial biomass and enzymatic activity in oak and pine forests of Uttarakhand Himalaya, India

Devanshi Singh et al.

Summary: The study showed that forest fires in the Himalayan region of Uttarakhand had a significant impact on soil properties, microbial biomass carbon, and enzymatic activity in both pine and oak forests. Soil microbial biomass carbon was more strongly affected in oak forests than in pine forests. Enzymatic activity in soil was influenced by forest type at burnt sites, with a strong positive correlation between dehydrogenase activity and soil organic matter.

Short-term impact of fire on the total soil microbial and nitrifier communities in a wet savanna

Tharaniya Srikanthasamy et al.

Summary: Savannas are characterized by the coexistence of grasses and trees, with fires being critical for their mutual existence. Grasses inhibit nitrification and trees stimulate it, favoring coexistence. However, fires can affect plant nitrogen cycling control, impacting tree-grass competition for nitrogen. Fire in a humid savanna in Ivory Coast reduced soil water content and increased soil ammonium availability, without impacting microbial abundances. Fire decreased archaeal nitrifier transcriptional activities and nitrification enzymatic activity, potentially due to the growth of nitrification-inhibiting grasses post-fire.
