Nitrogen fertilizer regime affected the soil bacterial community and could reduce the occurrence of diseases. However, there are unresolved questions regarding the effects of single or combined applications of different nitrogen forms on disease development. Here, using the split-root system, we explored the impact of two forms of nitrogen (nitrate and ammonium) on the cucumber’s resistance to Fusarium. We found that nitrate supply altered the rhizosphere bacterial taxa, which could inhibit the Fusarium. Moreover, metabolomic analysis demonstrated that rhizosphere bacterial taxa gradients along the lateral distance from the root are associated with the release of root exudates. Our research revealed that ammonium-induced root exudates included several compounds, specifically gluconic acid, sorbitol, and sorbose, which were shown to be preferred by pathogen. These metabolites might negatively affect the growth of beneficial bacterial taxa. We found that nitrate enhanced the release of root exudates, such as guanidinosuccinic acid and behenic acid, that inhibited pathogen growth and recruited beneficial bacterial taxa. In summary, our results highlighted that nitrate supply can shape the spatial patterns of the rhizosphere microbial community by regulating the composition of root exudates to inhibit the growth of the pathogen, thereby reducing disease occurrence. This study provides a novel insight into how nitrogen forms affect rhizosphere microbial assembly to promote plant health.","PeriodicalId":9210,"journal":{"name":"Biology and Fertility of Soils","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143367419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

How the soil N immobilizations change with increasing N inputs, especially in the subsoil, is not clear. Based on a long-term field manipulative experiment in an alpine meadow, we evaluated changes of soil gross NH4+ immobilization rate (GAIR) and NO3‒ immobilization rate (GNIR) under six N addition rates at 0–10, 10–20 and 20–40 cm soil depths. The corresponding biotic and abiotic mechanisms were also explored. The results showed that GAIR negatively correlated with N addition rate, but GNIR followed the unimodal response (increase first and then drop down) at all the three soil depths. The decrease in substrate supply by mineralization contributed to the decrease of GAIR with increasing N additions at the three soil depths. The changes of substrate supply by nitrification influenced the response of GNIR in the topsoil, but the changes of fungal abundance mediated the responses of GNIR in the subsoil. The increase in GNIR reduced denitrification derived N2O emission and contributed to retain NO3‒, benefitting to the environmental protection. These different responses of GAIR and GNIR to increasing N additions and the different mechanisms underlying the responses from topsoil to subsoil should be considered in biogeochemical models and land management.","PeriodicalId":9210,"journal":{"name":"Biology and Fertility of Soils","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143367423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A mycorrhiza defective mutant of tomato (reduced mycorrhizal colonization: rmc) and its mycorrhizal wild type progenitor (MYC) were used to control for the formation of AMF. 16-week continuous 13CO2 labeling was performed to quantify the photosynthetic C allocation in active microorganisms via 13C profiles of neutral (NLFAs) and phospholipid fatty acids (PLFAs). The 13C incorporation into fungal biomarker (the sum of PLFA 16:1ω5c, NLFA 16:1ω5c, PLFA 18:2ω6,9) increased with time over 16 weeks, and 4.62% of totally assimilated C was incorporated into AMF. More 13C was allocated into AMF storage compounds (NLFA 16:1ω5c, 3.1–4.1%) than hyphal biomass (PLFA 16:1ω5c, 0.12–0.25%). Furthermore, AMF symbiosis shifted microbial community composition, resulting in a lower 13C incorporation into bacteria and saprotrophic fungi compared to rmc plants. This suggests a lower use of root-derived C by bacteria and saprotrophic fungi but preference to older C compounds as energy sources. However, N fertilization decreased AMF abundance and subsequently less root-derived C was incorporated into PLFA and NLFA 16:1ω5c in relative to unfertilized soils, due to less C allocation caused by an increased C immobilization in the aboveground biomass. Our findings suggested that root-derived C can be sequestered by AMF through storage in their reproductive organs, but the preferential C allocation to AMF might be at the expense of C flow to other microbial groups. Overall, our results confirmed that mycorrhizal plants exert a greater influence on C incorporation into bacteria and saprotrophic fungi, which, however, is highly dependent on N fertilization.","PeriodicalId":9210,"journal":{"name":"Biology and Fertility of Soils","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143191740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the present study, we tracked N fixation rate (NFR), diazotrophic community characteristics and associated soil factors during the decomposition of Chinese fir and/or Schima superba leaf litter in a 60-day microcosm experiment. Soil NFR significantly increased as the litter addition and the incubation time, but it was not affected by litter types. Diazotrophic community interactions and key diazotroph species, identified by co-occurrence network, were changed as litter decomposition progressed. NFR was significantly correlated with the richness of putative key diazotrophs, and was mainly mediated by changes in soil NH4+-N, and key C fractions of organic C. Structural equation modeling further revealed that the intensification of soil N fixation functions during litter decomposition was mediated by complex diazotrophic interactions rather than community diversity.","PeriodicalId":9210,"journal":{"name":"Biology and Fertility of Soils","volume":"207 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143125147","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additional contribution to plant nutrition is possible when hyphae proliferate into soil space not directly accessible to plant roots or when they locate nutrient-rich patches more effectively than plant roots. We performed a field-based experiment in a seminatural grassland. Community composition, diversity, and root colonisation intensity of mycorrhizal fungi was compared across different types of substrate patches (enriched or not with inorganic N, P or both), between two exposure times, and with unmanipulated soil and patches enriched with plant biomass. Beside evaluating the response of the communities of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (G-AMF) and fine root endophytes (M-FRE), we estimated foraging speed and precision of multiple taxa within these two groups. We compared the relative abundance of both groups using molecular barcoding. While G-AMF responded in community composition and diversity to inorganic and organic N enrichment, M-FRE did not discriminate among diferentially nutrient-enriched patches. Individual taxa varied in foraging response, but G-AMF were slower and possibly more discriminatory than M-FRE in occupying patches differing in N and/or P-enrichment. Particularly two virtual taxa of the Rhizophagus irregularis morphospecies of the G-AMF grew preferentially into the N-enriched patches. We thus conclude that there exist important differences in the strategies of soil exploration for nutrients within both fungal groups.","PeriodicalId":9210,"journal":{"name":"Biology and Fertility of Soils","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143055067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Liming effectively improves soil pH, plant productivity, and soil physicochemical properties, but the long-term impact of acidity control by liming on key microbial nitrogen (N)-cycling genes in semi-natural grasslands is unknown. We investigated the effect of 65 years of liming on N-cycling processes in the limed and control plots of the Ossekampen long-term grassland experiment in the Netherlands. These plots have not received any other fertilizers for 65 years. Soil sampling and nitrous oxide (N2O) emission measurements were conducted three times in spring and four times in summer, and quantitative real-time PCR was performed to determine the absolute abundances of N-cycling genes, including ammonia-oxidation (amoA-AOB, amoA-AOA, amoA-comammox), denitrification (nirS, nirK, nosZ), nitrate ammonification (nrfA), and N-fixation (nifH) genes. Long-term liming increased the absolute abundances of nitrifiers, denitrifiers, and nitrate ammonifiers. Soil N2O emissions did not differ significantly between liming and control treatments. Additionally, liming had a buffering effect that maintained the population of N-cycling microbes against seasonal variations in abundance. Our results indicate that improving soil acidity through liming potentially facilitates microbial N-cycling processes without increasing N2O emissions.","PeriodicalId":9210,"journal":{"name":"Biology and Fertility of Soils","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143027151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we combined fruit and soil mineral analyses with microbial community resistance assessments in an 8-year watermelon continuous cropping system to investigate the microbiome-mediated plant responses to organic and bio-organic fertilizations. Our results showed that bio-organic fertilizer (BOF) treatment significantly enhanced watermelon quality, with a quality index 1.62 and 9.29 times higher than organic fertilizer (OF) and the control (CK), respectively. BOF improved soil mineral levels, particularly soil available iron (AFe), which was 1.77 and 4.01 times greater than OF and CK, and leaf iron content, which was 2.10 and 11.49 times higher than OF and CK. BOF also improved the soil microbial resistance and microbial community stability along with a promotion of symbiotic components within soil microbiomes and led to a stable microbial community, which supported enhanced soil nutrient cycling and plant health. Additionally, BOF-associated microbial clusters strongly linked with AFe and watermelon quality index. Stable mineral-solubilizing bacteria like Ammoniphilus, Bacillus, Acidibacter, and Talaromyces were enriched by BOF-treatment, which may have contributed to the dissolution of soil minerals (esp., AFe) and watermelon quality.

For every experiment, microbial biomass carbon (MBC), basal respiration, and fungal ergosterol were examined, starting with the cover crop in fall before potatoes until the spring in the crop succeeding potatoes. In all three experiments, initial effects on soil microbial activity depended on the incorporated biomass with no differences between vetch-triticale as a cover crop or a weedy fallow. During potato cropping, however, especially the incorporation of the vetch-triticale cover crop combined with the application of grass-clover mulch resulted in increased MBC, basal respiration and ergosterol. After potato cropping, basal respiration and ergosterol were increased in plots with weedy fallow before and mulched with grass-clover during potatoes pointing to a slower and overall more fungal based mulch degradation at that time in those plots.

Biochar-based controlled-release fertilizers (BCRFs) have emerged as a promising solution to address these challenges. This paper reviews BCRF production methods, nutrient retention mechanisms, and effects on plant growth and the environment compared with conventional fertilizers. Various techniques have been used to improve the fertilizer efficiency of BCRFs, including impregnation, coating, granulation, co-pyrolysis, hydrothermal synthesis, and in-situ pyrolysis, each offering unique advantages in controlling nutrient release. BCRFs facilitate nutrient retention and gradual release, improving soil nutrient use efficiency. The BCRFs also improve soil structure and enhance microbial activities and root growth, thereby fostering resilient and productive crops. BCRFs have considerable potential for carbon sequestration, mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions, reduction in nutrient leaching and environmental impact, contributing to sustainable agricultural practices compared to the use of conventional fertilizers (e.g., synthetic or chemical fertilizers). However, attention is needed to address challenges concerning the economic feasibility, scalability, and regulatory frameworks associated with using BCRFs. BCRFs offer a promising pathway for improving nutrient management in agriculture; however, interdisciplinary efforts are needed to unlock their full potential in enhancing plant growth and environmental sustainability.","PeriodicalId":9210,"journal":{"name":"Biology and Fertility of Soils","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142961772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
