Seasonal fluctuations in salinity are typical in coastal soils due to the intrusion of seawater in
the groundwater. We studied the effect of salinity on the microbial and biochemical …

The present investigation aimed to analyze the role of agroforestry systems in improving soil
organic matter status, microbial activity and nitrogen availability with a view to effective …

Secondary soil salinilization is a big problem in irrigated agriculture. We have studied the
effects of irrigation-induced salinity on microbial biomass of soil under traditional cotton …

Soil microbial biomass constitutes a transformation matrix for all the natural organic material
in the soil and acts as labile reservoir of plant available nutrients. In general plants serve as …

In sodic soils, excessive amounts of salts have an adverse effect on soil biological activity
and stability of soil organic matter. The study analyzes the role of silvopastoral systems to …

The effects of salt type and its concentration on nitrification, N mineralization and N 2 O
emission were examined under two levels of moisture content in Yellow soil and Andosol …

The aim of this study was to quantify the effects of salinity on soil property and several
indicators of soil microbial activity in existing salt affected areas of Northeast Thailand, and …

Most of coastal area in Nile Delta, Egypt, is salt-affected soils and have low carbon (C) and
nitrogen (N) inputs as a result of declining vegetation growth and low net primary production …

We studied the effects of increased electrical conductivity (EC) of a soil on the activity and
structure of its microbial community. Dry soil samples were added with 0, 11, 22, and 45 g …

A plethora of information is available on the effects of salinity on plant growth and soil
physico-chemical properties, but the effects on soil organisms are often neglected. Thus, a …
