The β-glucosidase (BG) enzyme is widely distributed in nature and is related to the carbon
cycle, acting in the cleavage of cellobiose into glucose molecules. Because of its sensitivity …

Soil microorganisms and microbial processes are influenced by the quality and quantity of
plant waste entering the soil, by its seasonal and spatial distribution, by the ratio of above-to …

Microbial biomass (MB) is an important indicator of soil quality, being responsive to changes
resulting from soil management and use. Although there are studies that evaluate changes …

Microbial populations are primarily responsible for the decomposition of organic residues,
the nutrients cycle, and the flow of energy inside of soil. The present study was undertaken …

The Caatinga is among the most threatened and least studied tropical dry forests in the
world. Sustainable forest management is a rational exploitation practice adopted in the …

Eucalyptus plantations are increasingly used in Brazil to produce wood and energy,
