Nitrogen (N) is an essential element required for the growth and development of all plants.
On a global scale, N is agriculture's most widely used fertilizer nutrient. Studies have shown …

Nitrification and denitrification are soil biological processes responsible for large nitrogen
losses from agricultural soils and generation of the greenhouse gas (GHG) N 2 O. Increased …

Nitrogen management measures (NMMs) such as the application of urease inhibitors (UIs),
synthetic nitrification inhibitors (SNIs), and biochar (BC) are commonly used in mitigating …

Plant growth and development depend on sufficient nutrient availability in soils. Agricultural
soils are generally nitrogen (N) deficient, and thus soils need to be supplemented with …

Both plants and their associated arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi require nitrogen (N) for
their metabolism and growth. This can result in both positive and negative effects of AM …

Roots secrete a vast array of low molecular weight compounds into the soil broadly referred
to as root exudates. It is a key mechanism by which plants and soil microbes interact in the …

Interactions between heavy metal and microplastics represent a serious threat to
ecosystems and human health, but the effect of their coexistence on the soil N …

Nitrification inhibitors (NIs) combined with organic amendments are considered effective
strategies for improving soil nitrogen availability and reducing nitrogen loss. However, these …

An aerobic 15N microcosmic experiment was conducted to compare the inhibitory effects of
the biological nitrification inhibitor (BNI), methyl 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl) propionate (MHPP) at …

Plant legacy effects observed in plant-soil feedback experiments have largely been
attributed to the root or litter material of the previous plant. The legacy effects of …
