Plant species’ influence on rhizosphere microbial communities depends on N availability
PurposePlants and soil microbes both influence how ecosystems respond to environmental change. Yet, we lack the ability to generalize how plants and...
-
Effects of functional and phylogenetic diversity on the temporal dynamics of soil N availability
PurposePlant species diversity is expected to affect multiple ecosystem functions, such as soil nitrogen (N) availability. However, this effect may...
-
Expression of macromolecular organic nitrogen degrading enzymes identifies potential mediators of soil organic N availability to an annual grass
Nitrogen (N) is frequently limiting to plant growth, in part because most soil N is present as polymeric organic compounds that are not readily taken...
-
Nitrogen availability and denitrification in urban agriculture and regreened vacant lots
Many cities demolish abandoned homes and create regreened vacant lots (RVLs), and an increasingly popular, high-intensity use of RVLs is as urban...
-
Soil phosphorus availability is enhanced by nitrogen and litter addition during the growing season
Background and aimsLitter input plays an important role in maintaining soil phosphorus (P) availability in terrestrial ecosystems. Moreover, nitrogen...
-
Conservation agriculture influences soil nitrogen availability in the lower Indo-Gangetic Plains
Background and aimsInformation on the effect of conservation agriculture (CA) on N availability in soil is inconsistent. Estimation of available N...

Characterization, nitrogen availability, and agronomic efficiency of fermented composts in organic vegetable production
Fermented composts obtained from a mixture of raw materials and a microbial inoculant, known as “bokashi,” are alternatives used by many farmers...
-
Soil nutrient availability and understorey composition beneath plantations of ecto- and arbuscular mycorrhizal Chilean native trees
Background and aimsSeveral lines of evidence indicate that arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and ectomycorrhizal (ECM) associations can have different...

N Fertilizer Reduction Combined with Organic Amendment Enhances Soil Multifunctionality by Altering Nutrient Availability and Fungal Community Structure in an Intensive Grain Production System
How soil ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) and microbiome in the high-input agricultural system respond to reduced mineral N input (RMNI) and...

Rhizobia modulate the peanut rhizobacterial community and soil metabolites depending on nitrogen availability
The rhizobial inoculation effects on the peanut rhizosphere bacterial community and metabolites were studied under different N availability following...
-
Different patterns of maize hybrids responses under variable phosphorus availability
In theory, the application of fertilizers is a relationship between the requirement of the crop and the content already present in the soil. However,...
-
Divergent responses of nitrogen availability to aridity in drylands
PurposeDrylands are generally drought-stressed and have low soil fertility. While negative effects of drought on vegetation productivity are...
-
Influence of cover crop residue traits on phosphorus availability and subsequent uptake by plants
Cover crops are typically thought to increase the P nutrition of crops. However, there are mixed reports on this with some studies reporting a...
-
Plant functional type shapes nitrogen availability in a regenerating forest
Background and aimsIn mature forests, tree and shrub mycorrhizal associations integrate plant and fungal functional traits, making these...
-
Soil Phosphorus Availability Impacts Chickpea Production and Nutritional Status in Tropical Soils
Chickpea is an excellent source of protein for human and animal consumption; however, the lack of phosphorus (P) limits their development and grain...
-
Effect of drought stress on symbiotic nitrogen fixation, soil nitrogen availability and soil microbial diversity in forage legumes
Background and aimsForage legumes form mutualistic interactions with specialized soil rhizobia bacteria that inhabit root nodules and fix atmospheric...
-
Glutamic Acid-Enhanced Phosphate Fertilizer Increases Phosphorus Availability in Fluvo-Aquic Soil via Phosphamide (O = P-N) Formation, Decreasing Phosphate Fixation and Increasing Soil Microbial Diversity
At low concentrations, incorporating amino acids into phosphate fertilizer reportedly improves phosphate fertilizer efficiency, but a limited...
-
Eucalypt seedlings lack a clear phosphate starvation response under low phosphorus availability
In regions of low soil phosphorus (P) availability, such as many tropical and subtropical regions, the cultivation of eucalypts is common due to...
-
Water availability creates global thresholds in multidimensional soil biodiversity and functions
Soils support an immense portion of Earth’s biodiversity and maintain multiple ecosystem functions which are essential for human well-being....
-
The effects of pH on nutrient availability depend on both soils and plants
The effects of pH on nutrient availability are not solely caused by to the effects on reaction with soils but are an interaction between these...
