Stover mulching over no-till soil is regarded as a promising practice to increase soil organic
carbon (SOC) in croplands against climate change. Microbial necromass is a significant …

Black soil is one of the main soil types in northeast China, and plays an important role in
Chinese crop production. However, nitrogen inputs over 50 years have led to reduced black …

Conservation agriculture practices, such as no-tillage and crop residue retention, are
proposed as sustainable soil management practices. However, it remains unclear how long …

Abstract The Loess Plateau of China is a typical dryland farming region. It is known that
mulching practices can maintain soil hydrothermal environment and improve crop …

The utilization of industrial and agricultural resources, such as desulfurization gypsum and
straw, is increasingly favored to improve saline alkali land. However, there is still a lack of …

Waste exogenous organic matter, including spent mushroom substrate (SMS) and chicken
manure (CM), can be used as the basis of a soil-improving cropping system in sustainable …

Forest conversion can affect the diversity and community structure of soil bacteria and fungi.
However, little is known about the impact of forest conversion on aboveground-belowground …

Soil net nitrogen mineralisation (Nt) is crucial for nitrogen availability and ecosystem
productivity. However, the patterns and drivers of Nt remain unclear under different …

Abstract The Songnen Plain is an important agricultural region in China with an abundance
of saline–alkaline soil that significantly restricts maize growth. Trichoderma spp., free‐living …

To understand the mechanisms of soil ameliorants affecting microbial communities is
important for saline-sodic soils reclamation. High-throughput sequencing was used to …
