Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can preferentially absorb the released ammonium (NH4+) over nitrate (NO3−) during litter decomposition. However, impact of AMF’s absorption NH4+ on nitrogen (N) decomposition is still unclear. In this study, we investigated effects AMF uptake for N metabolic characteristics by enriching via suppression and nitrification inhibition in a subtropical Cinnamomum camphora forest. The results showed that significantly decelerated early stage due to repression...
Endophytes typically coexist with plants in symbiosis and transition into the saprobic system as plant tissues senesce, participating decomposition process of litter. However, dynamic changes endophytic communities during this their role litter remain unclear. This study tracked microbial composition across from live leaves to Cinnamomum camphora (L.) Presl (C. camphora), evaluating contribution endophytes by examining diversity, community assembly, co-occurrence networks along...
This study examines the role of endophytic microbial colonization on decomposition oak leaf litter, a high-quality substrate in forest ecosystems. Over one-year incubation, we observed significant reduction mass loss colonized litter (46%) compared to non-colonized (80%), indicating an inhibitory effect endophytes decomposition. Structural equation modeling revealed bimodal impact microbes, with initial enhancement followed by pronounced inhibition as progressed. Extracellular enzyme...
Acid rain and understory vegetation removal are critical drivers altering soil ecosystem alterations. However, the mechanisms by which these factors influence moisture dynamics, nutrient availability, microbially mediated enzyme activities remain insufficiently elucidated. This study investigated impacts of simulated acid on properties, activities, microbial community in a subtropical Cinnamomum camphor (Linn) Presl plantation. The results indicated that significantly decreased organic...
This study aimed to compare growth performance and heavy metal (HM) accumulation at different cutting positions of Salix species grown in multi-metal culture. Three stems cut (apical basal) were hydroponically for four weeks. The plants then treated three weeks with 0, 5, 10, 20 μM Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn, resulting total concentrations 20, 40, 80 μM. parameters HM content shoots initial measured. Results showed that, compared S. fragilis, matsudana grew more poorly uncontaminated condition but...
To test whether delayed autonomous selfing occurs in Kosteletzkya virginica, stylar movements, selfing, corolla dragging, controlling pollination and autogamy rate were experimentally studied. The results indicated that dragging occur K. virginica. Recurvature of branches lasted until the stigmas touched or abutted on anthers at end anthesis day, only if did not received pollen from an external agent. However, recurvature stopped Delayed was due to direct movements with combination anthers....
Abstract Peat, as a heterogeneous mixture of decaying plant debris and microbial residues, has been widely used in many fields. However, little research focused on the impact peat addition food waste composting. To fill this gap, composting experiment mixed with five varying percent 0, 5, 10, 15, 20% (w/w, dry weight) was designed to investigate effect different dosages nitrogen conservation, physiochemical parameters, fungal community dynamics during The results showed that adding elevated...
A major gap to understand the effects of plant secondary compounds on litter decomposition in brown food web is lack information about how these modify activities soil decomposers. To address this question, we conducted an experiment where aqueous extracts and tannins prepared from Pinus massoniana needles were added soils collected either P. (pine soil) or Quercus variabilis (oak soil). Our objective was investigate cascading two isopod (Armadillidium vulgare) activity subsequent change Q....
The Jialu River has experienced serious water quality deterioration and biodiversity decline. An ecological restoration project was undertaken. We investigated quality, species richness distribution before after to describe improvements on the River. After project, total nitrogen (TN), phosphorus (TP), chemical oxygen demand (COD) ammonium (NH4+-N) decreased by 38.69, 40.52, 39.06 45.07% respectively. Concentrations of these indices were maintained at steady levels restoration, indicating...
Abstract Kosteletzkya virginica (L.) Presl. is a perennial dicot halophytic species that grows in brackish portions of coastal tidal marshes the mid-Atlantic and southeastern United States. It was introduced into Northern Jiangsu, China, by Halophyte Biotechnology Center (University Delaware, Newark, DE) as with potential to improve soil develop ecologically sound saline agriculture. Fifteen major minor elements [calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), phosphorus (P), sodium (Na), potassium (K), iron...
Soil fauna play an important role in litter decomposition and affect the “home-field advantage” (HFA) of decomposition. However, how this effect is modulated by microenvironment needs further investigation. We conducted a reciprocal transplant experiment using different mesh-size litterbags across soil layers subtropical coniferous (Pinus massoniana) broad-leaved (Quercus variabilis) forests. Our results revealed pronounced HFA P. massoniana. massoniana decomposed faster its home habitat...
The carbon cycle within a terrestrial ecosystem is pivotal functional process that drives evolution, and the precipitation pattern variations exert profound influence on it. To comprehensively assess response of release in global to water variation, we performed meta-analysis by extracting data from 144 publications. Additionally, incorporated various moderators elucidate heterogeneity observed data. results showed soil was highly sensitive with drying moisturizing treatments responding...
