The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects on chemical and microbiological properties paddy soil short-term biochar, straw, fertilizers compared with fertilization alone. Five treatments were evaluated: regular (RF), straw+regular (SRF), straw biochar+regular (SCRF), bamboo biochar (BC)+regular (BCRF), biochar+70% (SC+70%RF). Their investigated after approximately 1.5 years. pH cation exchange capacity (CEC) significantly higher in biochar-treated soils. phosphorous (P)...

With high biomass productivity and resistance to heavy metals (HM) stress, bamboo has strong potential for HM phytoremediation. However, few studies have been conducted under field conditions explore changes in soil physicochemical microbial properties of forests with HM-contaminated soils. This study established (Phyllostachys praecox) plantations five Cr-contaminated sites different pollution levels (low, L; low-moderate, LM; moderate, M; moderate-high, MH; high, H). We determined chemical...

Microbial necromass carbon (MNC) is crucial for soil sequestration in bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) forests. However, the response of MNC to bamboo-sourced organic fertilizers (BSOF) prepared by composting plant growth-promoting microorganisms and residues remains unclear. This study examined its contribution (SOC) Moso plantations under four BSOF treatments: control (CK, 0 t·hm−2), low fertilizer application (LF, 7.5 medium (MF, 15 high (HF, 30 t·hm−2) across 0–20 cm 20–40 layers. In these...

A bamboo species (Phyllostachys praecox) and a Cd/Zn hyperaccumulator (Sedum plumbizincicola) were tested under different planting systems to compare their heavy metal phytoremediation ability. P. praecox (MP), S. plumbizincicola (MS) × (IPS) plantations established in Cu, Zn, Cd-contaminated soil. Soil properties contents plants determined compared after four years of plantation establishment. The rankings available total soil layers MP > MS IPS (0-20 cm) (20-40 cm, except for Cu),...

Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys pubescens) has an extremely fast growth rate and major carbon sequestration potential. However, little information is available on the dynamics of soil C accumulation fungi communities related to different management practices. Here, we investigated changes in organic (SOC) fractions fungal a plantation under three practices (M0: undisturbed; M1: extensively managed; M2: intensively managed). Compared with M0, SOC levels were reduced by 41.2% 71.5% M1 M2,...

Salt stress is detrimental to the survival of microorganisms, and only a few bacterial species produce hydrolytic enzymes. In this study, we investigated expression salt stress-related genes in salt-tolerant strain Bacillus subtilis ACP81, isolated from bamboo shoot processing waste, at transcription level. The results indicate that could grow 20% NaCl, sub-lethal concentration was 6% NaCl. Less neutral protease higher cellulase β-amylase activities were observed for B. ACP81 under...

AbstractBamboo has gained increasing attention, especially due to its fast growth and versatile utilization. It is used by millions of people in their daily lives a resource for timber, pulp paper, food industries—not only Asia. So far, the bio-energy sector shown marginal interest bamboo, whose energetic properties are less intensively studied than physical properties. This paper presents chemical two bamboo species—Phyllostachys pubescens Bambusa emeiensis—for energy recovery. Both species...
