Understory diversity, tree regeneration, and soil physicochemical characteristics were assessed under three planting densities of Pinus massoniana Taizishan Mountains, Hubei, China. There was a higher degree shrub herb lower stands. Total richness for herbs (n = 42) than shrubs 30) but the two groups exhibited similar pattern with greater at stand density. Changes community structure composition more frequent high Community low...

Drought and salinity stresses are persistent threat to field crops frequently mentioned as major constraints on worldwide agricultural productivity. Moreover, their severity frequency predicted rise in the near future. Therefore, present study we investigated mechanisms underlying plant responses drought (5, 10 15% polyethylene glycol, PEG-6000), (50, 100, 150 mM NaCl), combination, particularly at seed germination stage, terms of photosynthesis antioxidant activity, four soybean cultivars,...

Abstract The combined use of organic manure and chemical fertilizer (CF) is considered to be a good method for sustaining high crop yields improving soil quality. We performed field experiment in 2019 at the research station Guanxi University, investigate effects cattle (CM) poultry (PM) with CF on physical biochemical properties, rice dry matter (DM) nitrogen (N) accumulation grain yield. also evaluated differences pre-and post-anthesis DM N their contributions consisted six treatments: no...

Field experiments were conducted to study soil properties, enzymes activities, water use efficiency (WUE) and crop productivity after six years of soya bean straw mulching in the semi-arid conditions China. The experiment included four treatments: CK (Control), N (240 kg ha-1), H (soya at half rate 700 ha-1 with 240 ha-1) F full 1,400 ha-1). Soil organic carbon (SOC), labile (LOC), available (AN), P (AP) enzyme activities analysed wheat harvesting 2016 2017. Results show that amounts had...

Abstract The current farming system is highly reliant on synthetic fertilizers, which adversely affect soil quality, the environment, and crop production. Improving productivity a sustainable basis challenging issue in agricultural system. To address this issue, we assumed that combined use of manure chemical fertilizers (CF) could improve rice ( Oryza sativa L.) grain yield properties without expense environment. Therefore, 2‐yr field experiment was conducted to explore optimal fertilizer...

Field studies using wheat straw mulching effects on soil water storage and maize development were conducted in China. The contained four treatments during three years (2014-2016): CK (no no nitrogen); N with 172 kg N/ha); HS + (half at the rate of 2500 kg/ha N/ha), FS (full 5000 N/ha). treatment significantly increased a drought period crop growth stages promoted plant along evapotranspiration. (26.5, 19.9 11.1 mm), grain yield (28.7, 6.93 2.4%), use efficiency (26.6, 6.64 2.40%) compared to...

Masson pine (Pinus massoniana Lamb) has been planted extensively in different parts of China for timber production and habitat restoration. The effects stand age management these plantations on biomass, carbon storage, soil physicochemical properties are poorly understood. In this study, we investigated plantations. were divided into four groups (9, 18, 28, 48 years), managed (MS) unmanaged stands (UMS) Hubei province, Central China. Tree biomass increased with age. A growth model indicated...

Stoichiometric ratios of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) are considered indicators nutrient status ultimate ecosystem health. A detailed investigation these elements in the leaves, branches, forest layer vegetation soil, depending on stand age, was carried out. We investigated effects age (9-, 18-, 28-, 48-year) aboveground plant parts (leaf, branch, herb, shrub, litter) belowground pools (soil, roots) P. massoniana plantations. The CNP stoichiometry trees affected by age. Mean...

Identifying the contributions of climate factors and fertilization to maize yield is significant for assessment change impacts on production under semiarid conditions.
