The aim of this article is to present the issues related significance microorganisms in mineralization crop residues and influence environmental factors on rate process. Crop play a very important role agriculture because they can be used both as an environment-friendly waste management strategy means improving soil organic matter. inclusion requires appropriate strategies that support production protect quality surface water groundwater. Crops need nutrients for high yields; however, only...
Nitrogen (N) is widely distributed in the lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere and biosphere. It a basic component of every plant cell as well microorganisms, proteins, nucleic acids chlorophyll. enters soil with organic mineral fertilizers, animal residues biological nitrogen fixation. There are various forms soil, this element usually transformed by microorganisms. The transformation compounds (ammonification, nitrification immobilization) significantly influenced climatic conditions...
Meeting the nutritional needs of a dynamically developing global society is major challenge. Despite modernisation agriculture, huge losses in quality and quantity crops occur each year, mainly due to weed species, which are most important biotic limitation agricultural production. Globally, approximately 1800 species cause 31.5% reduction plant production, translates USD 32 billion per year economic losses. However, when same herbicides frequently applied, plants develop segetal immune...
The negative impact of chemical pesticides on the environment and human health has contributed to introduction legal regulations that ensure reduction in use agrochemicals favor biological products. existing review literature, including our research, clearly shows ideal biocontrol agents are Trichoderma fungi. production antibiotics, lytic enzymes degrading cell walls plant pathogens, or inducing a defense response plants just some features supporting wide these microorganisms sustainable...
In recent years, growing environmental awareness, the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and energy crisis have led many countries seek alternative sources. One of most promising solutions is biogas production via anaerobic digestion (AD), whose substrate can be organic-rich easily biodegradable food waste (FW). This a significant part global problem, its use for beneficial both environment economy. paper presents important issues concerning monitoring AD process, as well standard...
Phosphorus resources, both in phosphate rocks and the soil, are limited. However, effective food production is not possible without use of P fertilizers. Recognizing eliminating or at least ameliorating factors (hot spots) that interfere with uptake phosphorus (P) by crop plants key importance for nitrogen (N) on farm. Plants have developed many adaptation mechanisms to their environment, i.e., soil low available phosphorus. The most important ones include secretion organic compounds into...
The aim of this study is to assess the effect two biostimulators (Titanit, Rooter) and six foliar fertilizers (Optysil, Metalosate Potassium, Bolero Bo, ADOB 2.0 Zn IDHA, B, Mo) on white lupine. In addition, we evaluated enzymatic activity dehydrogenase, acid, alkaline phosphatases, catalase, level biological nitrogen fixation, yield, plant biometric, chlorophyll fluorescence content. A field experiment was conducted between 2016 2018 at Gorzyń Experimental Educational Station, Poznań...
Modern agriculture should limit its degrading impact on the soils, natural environment, and climate. No-tillage soil cultivation technologies, which have been in use for many years are constantly being improved, a good example of these actions; although, in-depth studies their microbial community currently scarce. The aim our study was to evaluate effect technology bacterial assess differences that can be reflected environmental agricultural functionality, identifying possible species with...
The soil tillage system and the distribution of stubble catch crops increase content organic carbon, thus increasing biochemical activity soil. aim study was to assess impact leguminous cover different systems before spring wheat sowing on count microorganisms, activity, microbiological diversity physiological state plants in correlation with yield. compared analysed following systems: (1) conventional (CT) a depth 22 cm, followed by using four simplified cultivation technologies called...
In a long-term monoculture with fruit trees and tree nurseries, it is necessary to regenerate the soil due risk of apple replant disease (ARD). The occurrence ARD manifested in structure mycobiome. assumption our experiment was that use oil radish (Raphanus sativus var. oleifera), white mustard (Sinapis alba), marigold (Tagetes patula L.) as phytosanitary plants for biofumigation would provide crops nutrients, improve physicochemical properties, influence diversity microbiota, including...
The taxonomic and functional diversity of bacteria in seven different experimental variants applied to soil under a maize plantation was determined by means next-generation sequencing biochemical methods. aim the study discover differences structure level enzymatic activity (BIF—biochemical index fertility) after application biofertiliser made lignocellulosic substrate biochar containing various microorganisms (algae, mycorrhizal fungi Glomus genus or consortium Bacillus sp. bacteria)....
The aim of this study was to assess the effect selected biostimulators and foliar fertilizers on plant development, yield, soil fertility biochemical activity (dehydrogenases, phosphatases, catalases) during cultivation pea (Pisum sativum L.). A field experiment conducted between 2016 2018 at Gorzyń Experimental Educational Station, Poznań University Life Sciences in Poland. following treatments were tested: (1) control; (2) Titanit; (3) Optysil; (4) Metalosate potassium; (5) Rooter; (6)...
Abstract The current research outlines the course of eutrophication processes emerging when some critical physical and chemical factors interact altogether. For this purpose, investigations were carried out, where nitrogen [N as (NH 4 ) 2 HPO KNO 3 ] phosphorus [P added to three different water sources (double distilled water, DDW; tap TW; lacustrine LW) solutions incubated at two distinct temperatures (17 23 °C). Treatments kept in 1 dm glass jars incubation time lasted 7 weeks. process...
