High soil salinity is the main factor that limits soil microbial activity in the Yellow River Delta (YRD); however, its effects on fungal community and ecological function are unknown. Here, we comparatively investigated the diversity and structures of soil fungal communities targeting the internally transcribed fungal spacer gene using Illumina Mi...

Knowledge of spatiotemporal distribution and likelihood of (re)occurrence of salt-affected soils is crucial to our understanding of land degradation and for planning effective remediation strategies in face of future climatic uncertainties. However, conventional methods used for tracking the variability of soil salinity/sodicity are extensively loc...

Soil salinization is an important factor affecting winter wheat growth in coastal areas. The rapid, accurate and efficient estimation of soil salt content is of great significance for agricultural production. The Kenli area in the Yellow River Delta was taken as the research area. Three machine learning inversion models, namely, BP neural network (...

Natural and anthropogenic soil degradation is resulting in a substantial rise in the extension of saline and industrially-polluted soils. Phytoremediation offers an environmentally and economically advantageous solution to soil contamination. Three growth trials were conducted to assess the stress tolerance of native Canadian genotypes of Populus b...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of Bacillus methylotrophicus M4-1 to protect winter wheat from the harmful effects of soil salinity and alkalinity. We isolated the halotolerant B. methylotrophicus M4-1. Two representative soils with different salt contents (S1, 213 μs cm-1 ; S2, 786 μs cm-1 ) in the Yellow River delta region of Ch...

Agriculture plays an important role in a country’s economy. The sector is challenged by many stresses, which led to huge loss in plant productivity worldwide. The ever-increasing population, rapid urbanization with shrinking agricultural lands, dramatic change in climatic conditions, and extensive use of agrochemicals in agricultural practices that...

Nitrous oxide (N2O) as a by-product of soil nitrogen (N) cylces, its production may be affected by soil salinity which have been proved to have significant negative effect on soil N transformation processes. The response of N2O production across a range of different soil salinities is poorly documented; accordingly, we conducted a laboratory incuba...

AbstractThe objectives of this research are prediction of soil drainage curve using Assouline and Or (2014) adjusted soil drainage model and comparison of the predicted results with experimental data on small and large scales. This research is conducted for 18 small soil columns under different salinity level of irrigation water using different sce...

In Tunisia, water used for irrigation is often saline, increasing the risk of salinization for soils and crops. In this study, an experiment was conducted on a tomato crop cultivated on a silty-clay soil irrigated with three different water qualities: 0, 3.5, and 7 dS.m&minus / 1. Experimental data were then used to calibrate and validate the Hydru...

Soil moisture and salinity are crucial parameters of the Earth’s ecosystem; how to understand the radiation properties of them is of great significance for remote sensing monitoring. In this study, the application of mixed soil dielectric models (Dobson and generalized refractive mixing dielectric model (GRMDM)) and saline soil dielectric models (D...
