Background Plants selectively attract particular soil microorganisms, in particular consumers
of root-excreted compounds. It is unclear to what extent cultivar type and/or growth stage …

Objective: To study the effects of different tillage depths and different green manures on
microbial comunity characteristics of tobacco-planting soil, to screen out the suitable tillage …

Application of bioorganic fertilizers has been reported to improve crop yields and change
soil bacterial community structure; however, little work has been done in apple orchard soils …

Background Soil microbes exist throughout the soil profile and those inhabiting topsoil (0–20
cm) are believed to play a key role in nutrients cycling. However, the majority of the soil …

Organic farming has positive effects on soil microbial population, process, and activity. To
examine effects of two different management methods (organic farming vs. conventional …

Application of plant artificial cultivation substrates lead to alteration of rhizosphere
environment. Whether this alteration could lead to root microbiome variation was limitedly …

Few studies have investigated the effect of environment on the root-associated microbiome,
especially for woody plants in their native environment. The roots and rhizosphere soils of a …

Microbial diversity in the rhizosphere is affected by soil physical and chemical properties,
which may be determined by plant species and growth stage. Exploring the bacterial …

Amplicon-based analysis of 16S rRNA genes and transcripts was used to assess the effect
of tree species composition on soil bacterial community structure and function in a temperate …

To understand the distribution of the soil microbial community in natural walnut orchards at
different altitude gradients (3000–3500 m) and to reveal the mechanism of the soil microbial …
