Microbial nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is the by which microbes allocate organic N acquired to biomass formation relative in excess of microbial demand released through mineralization. NUE thus critical estimate capacity soil retain soils and thereby affects inorganic availability plants ecosystem losses. However, how temperature moisture/O2 affect date not clear. Therefore, two independent incubation experiments were conducted with from three land uses (cropland, grassland forest) on...
Rationale There are several preparation methods for the measurement of nitrogen (N) isotopic composition ammonium (NH 4 + ) in different types samples (freshwater, saltwater and soil extracts). The diffusion method is most popular it involves NH solutions being released under alkaline conditions then immediately trapped by an acidified filter. However, traditional designed with large volume relatively high N concentrations. performance small‐volume (e.g., a few milliliters) remains unknown....
<title>Abstract</title> Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are a vital component of microbial residues which contribute to soil organic carbon (SOC). However, despite various conjectures and hypotheses regarding EPS controls, empirical research experimental evidence validate these theories have remained highly limited. In this study, we addressed knowledge gap by conducting extensive sampling across Europe, encompassing diverse climates bedrock land use types, systematically...
In order to meet the agronomy demand for hybrid rice direct seeding, a novel precise pneumatic seed metering device was designed with groups of sucking holes plate, by which 3-4 seeds could be synchronously sucked and dropped into paddy field. The plate divided five sections: sucking, clearing, carrying, dropping, blank sections. were in section vacuum, carried rotated dropping blown away positive pressure air, thrown tube. influences hole diameter, vacuum degree, clear-up equipment on...
