The low-carbon power transition, which is key to combatting climate change, has far-reaching effects on achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in terms of issues such as resource use, environmental emissions, employment, and many more. Here, we assess potential impacts transition progress toward multiple SDGs (covering 18 targets across 17 goals) 49 economies under nine socioeconomic scenarios. We find that representative concentration pathway (RCP)2.6 scenarios could lead an...
Mudflat soil amendment by sewage sludge is a potential way to dispose of solid wastes and increase fertility mudflat soils for crop growth. The present study aimed assess the impact (SSA) on heavy metal accumulation growth ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) in seedling stage. We investigated availability, plant uptake, yield response SSA at rates 0, 30, 75, 150, 300 t ha−1. increased availability subsequently ryegrass. bioavailable fraction metals 4550, 58.8, 898, 189, 35.8, 84.8% Zn, Mn, Cu, Ni,...
A yellow-pigmented, Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile rod shaped, mesophilic bacterium, designated strain N7XX-4 T , was isolated from cattail root grown on the mine tailings of Phoenix mountain, Tongling city, Anhui Province (PR China). Analysis 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that represented a novel member family Microbacteriaceae . The nearest phylogenetic neighbour Lysinimonas kribbensis MSL-13 (97.8 % similarity). most abundant fatty acid in whole cells anteiso-C15 : 0 (29.9 %)....
Abstract The most important measures for salt-affected mudflat soil reclamation are to reduce salinity and increase organic carbon (OC) content thus fertility. Salinity reduction is often accomplished through costly freshwater irrigation by special engineering measures. Whether fertility enhancement only one-off application of a great amount OC can improve properties promote plant growth in remains unclear. Therefore, the objective our indoor pot experiment was study effects amendment at 0,...
China is facing a shortage of arable land resources, and the mudflat salt-affected soil along east coast an important reserve resource. In this study, we conducted randomized field trial to investigate effects vermicompost application rate (0, 25, 50, 125, 250 t ha−1) on barley growth heavy metal accumulation in soil. We found that decreased bulk density, electrical conductivity (EC), pH while increasing its organic carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus contents. With increase rate, yield grain total...
Abstract Straw incorporation is a widespread agricultural practice to enhance soil fertility and recycle crop residues. However, how straw affects mobility plant uptake of heavy metals such as cadmium (Cd) still remains unclear. The effect on Cd solubility by rice was investigated in pot experiment. A Cd-contaminated paddy incorporated with wheat at different rates (0, 0.25%, 0.5%, 1% w/w). dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration solution sampled during the experiment content maturity...
The fast pace of cropland loss in China is causing alarm over food security and China's ability to remain self-reliant crop production. Mudflats after organic amendment can be an important alternative China. Land application sewage sludge has become a popular croplands many countries. Nevertheless, the land mudflats received little attention. Therefore, objective present work was investigate impact (SSA) at 0, 30, 75, 150 300 t ha−1 rates on soil physicochemical properties, perennial...
By performing a microcosm experiment mimicking fertilization, we assessed the dynamic distribution of tetracycline-resistant bacteria (TRB) and corresponding tetracycline resistance genes (TRGs) from pig manure (PM) to fertilized soil, by culture-dependent methods PCR detection. Cultivable TRB were most abundant in PM, followed soil unfertilized soil. restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis, assigned 29, 20, 153 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) respectively. After...
Abstract Soil aggregates are important drivers of soil productivity. However, the relative importance abiotic and biotic agents in driving aggregate formation stabilization remain largely unexplored, especially coastal mudflat saline soils. We amended with sewage sludge at rates 0, 30, 75, 150 t ha −1 to investigate effects on particle size distribution stability underlying mechanisms induced by environmental factors fungal community. Results revealed that amendment significantly ( p <...
Phytoene synthase (PSY) is one of key enzymes in carotenogenesis that catalyze two molecules geranylgeranyl diphosphate to produce phytoene. PSY widespread bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes. Currently, functional role catalytic mechanism archaeal homologues have not been fully clarified due the limited reports. Herein, we identified a rate-limiting from halophilic euryarchaeon Haloferax volcanii (HVO-PSY) bacterioruberin biosynthesis dissected roles its seven conserved residues. Compared...
Abstract The mudflats along the east coast of China can be important alternative sources for arable lands after amendment. newly reclaimed as typical saline soils are not suitable cultivation owing to high salinity and nutrient deficiencies. key amending mudflat into fertile is reduce in top layer soil. Salinity reduction usually accomplished through rainfall freshwater irrigation. However, lack good soil aggregation status might attribute salt solution rise capillary. Increasing organic...
