Cover crops (CC) introduced to reduce leaching of nitrate may also improve soil microbial properties and phosphorus (P) uptake in crops that follow. These effects may depend on soil P status and the quality of the CC residues.

Aim

Our aim was to quantify the more persistent effects of incorporation of residues of three different CC species on barley growth and P uptake and whether any response in growth and P uptake was related to soil P status and changes in soil microbial properties.

Methods

We examined the impact of soil P status, CC species, and residue fraction (shoots and/or roots) on the growth of winter barley (Hordeum vulgare) and soil microbial properties. Shoot and root residues from three contrasting CC (oats, Avena sativa; corncockle, Agrostemma githago; lupine, Lupinus angustifolius) were incubated for 2 months in soil with low and medium P status. Dry matter yield and P offtake characterized effects of CC residues on barley while phospholipid fatty acids (PLFAs), neutral lipid fatty acids (NLFAs), and enzyme activity characterized soil microbial properties after barley harvest.

Results

Effects of shoot residues on barley yield and P offtake appeared neutral or positive and not affected by soil P status, while the effect of root residues appeared negative for medium P soil and neutral for low P soil. With lupine shoot biomass, however, barley yield and P offtake increased in both soils. Neither CC treatments nor soil P status affected the microbial community composition (bacterial and fungal specific PLFAs). Lupine roots increased phosphomonoesterase, and lupine residues generally stimulated microbial abundance (total microbial PLFAs) compared to other CC treatments.

Conclusion

We conclude that the effect of CC residues on the following crop and soil microorganisms depends on soil P status and that lupine had the largest positive impact on barley growth.

Crop water productivity (CWP) (yield per unit ETd) linearly increased with ETd/ETw (R2\u00a0=\u00a00.75), which suggests that trying to increase CWP by deficit-irrigating corn is not a good strategy under the conditions of this study.", "keywords": ["0106 biological sciences", "2.

In this study, the influence of biochar, compost and mixtures of the two on soil fertility, maize yield and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions was investigated in a tropical Ferralsol. The treatments were: 1) control with business as usual fertilizer (F); 2) 10 t ha(-1) biochar (B)+F; 3) 25 t ha(-1) compost (Com)+F; 4) 2.5 t ha(-1) B+25 t ha(-1) Com mixed on site+F; and 5) 25 t ha(-1) co-composted biochar-compost (COMBI)+F. Total aboveground biomass and maize yield were significantly improved relative to the control for all organic amendments, with increases in grain yield between 10 and 29%. Some plant parameters such as leaf chlorophyll were significantly increased by the organic treatments. Significant differences were observed among treatments for the \u03b4(15)N and \u03b4(13)C contents of kernels. Soil physicochemical properties including soil water content (SWC), total soil organic carbon (SOC), total nitrogen (N), available phosphorus (P), nitrate-nitrogen (NO3(-)N), ammonium-nitrogen (NH4(+)-N), exchangeable cations and cation exchange capacity (CEC) were significantly increased by the organic amendments. Maize grain yield was correlated positively with total biomass, leaf chlorophyll, foliar N and P content, SOC and SWC. Emissions of CO2 and N2O were higher from the organic-amended soils than from the fertilizer-only control. However, N2O emissions generally decreased over time for all treatments and emission from the biochar was lower compared to other treatments.

Corn (Zea mays L.) stover is a global resource used for livestock, fuel, and bioenergy feedstock, but excessive stover removal can decrease soil organic C (SOC) stocks and deteriorate soil health. Many site\uffe2\uff80\uff90specific stover removal experiments report accrual rates and SOC stock effects, but a quantitative, global synthesis is needed to provide a scientific base for long\uffe2\uff80\uff90term energy policy decisions. We used 409 data points from 74 stover harvest experiments conducted around the world for a meta\uffe2\uff80\uff90analysis and meta\uffe2\uff80\uff90regression to quantify removal rate, tillage, soil texture, and soil sampling depth effects on SOC. Changes were quantified by: (a) comparing final SOC stock differences after at least 3\uffc2\uffa0years with and without stover removal and (b) calculating SOC accrual rates for both treatments. Stover removal generally reduced final SOC stocks by 8% in the upper 0\uffe2\uff80\uff9315 or 0\uffe2\uff80\uff9330\uffc2\uffa0cm, compared to stover retained, irrespective of soil properties and tillage practices. A more sensitive meta\uffe2\uff80\uff90regression analysis showed that retention increased SOC stocks within the 30\uffe2\uff80\uff93150\uffc2\uffa0cm depth by another 5%. Compared to baseline values, stover retention increased average SOC stocks temporally at a rate of 0.41\uffc2\uffa0Mg C\uffc2\uffa0ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921\uffc2\uffa0year\uffe2\uff88\uff921 (statistically significant at p\uffc2\uffa0<\uffc2\uffa00.01 when averaged across all soil layers). Although SOC sequestration rates were lower with stover removal, with moderate (<50%) removal they can be positive, thus emphasizing the importance of site\uffe2\uff80\uff90specific management. Our results also showed that tillage effects on SOC stocks were inconsistent due to the high variability in practices used among the experimental sites. Finally, we conclude that research and technological efforts should continue to be given high priority because of the importance in providing science\uffe2\uff80\uff90based policy recommendations for long\uffe2\uff80\uff90term global carbon management.

Nitrogen fertilizer and harvest management will alter soils under bioenergy crop production and the long\uffe2\uff80\uff90term effects of harvest timing and residue removal remain relatively unknown. Compared to no\uffe2\uff80\uff90tilled corn (NT\uffe2\uff80\uff90C, Zea mays L.), switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is predicted to improve soil properties [i.e. soil organic C (SOC), soil microbial biomass (SMB\uffe2\uff80\uff90C), and soil aggregation] due to its perennial nature and deep\uffe2\uff80\uff90rooted growth form, but few explicit field comparisons exist. We assessed soil properties over 9\uffc2\uffa0years for a rainfed study of N fertilizer rate (0, 60, 120, and 180\uffc2\uffa0kg N\uffc2\uffa0ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921) and harvest management on switchgrass (harvested in August and postfrost) and NT\uffe2\uff80\uff90C (with and without 50% stover removal) in eastern NE. We measured SOC, aggregate stability, SMB\uffe2\uff80\uff90C, bulk density (BD), pH, P and K in the top 0\uffe2\uff80\uff9330\uffc2\uffa0cm. Both NT\uffe2\uff80\uff90C and switchgrass increased SMB\uffe2\uff80\uff90C, SOC content, and aggregate stability over the 9\uffc2\uffa0years, reflecting improvement from previous conventional management. However, the soils under switchgrass had double the percent aggregate stability, 1.3 times more microbial biomass, and a 5\uffe2\uff80\uff938% decrease in bulk density in the 0\uffe2\uff80\uff935 and 5\uffe2\uff80\uff9310\uffc2\uffa0cm depths compared to NT\uffe2\uff80\uff90C. After 9\uffc2\uffa0years, cumulative decrease in available P was significantly greater beneath NT\uffe2\uff80\uff90C (\uffe2\uff88\uff9224.0\uffc2\uffa0kg P\uffc2\uffa0ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921) compared to switchgrass (\uffe2\uff88\uff925.4\uffc2\uffa0kg P\uffc2\uffa0ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921). When all measured soil parameters were included in the Soil Management Assessment Framework (SMAF), switchgrass improved soil quality index over time (\uffce\uff94SQI) in all depths. NT\uffe2\uff80\uff90C without residue removal did not affect \uffce\uff94SQI, but 50% residue removal decreased \uffce\uff94SQI (0\uffe2\uff80\uff9330\uffc2\uffa0cm) due to reduced aggregate stability and SMB\uffe2\uff80\uff90C. Even with best\uffe2\uff80\uff90management practices such as NT, corn stover removal will have to be carefully managed to prevent soil degradation. Long\uffe2\uff80\uff90term N and harvest management studies that include biological, chemical, and physical soil measurements are necessary to accurately assess bioenergy impacts on soils.

The response of terrestrial ecosystems to rising atmospheric CO2 concentration (Ca), particularly under nutrient\uffe2\uff80\uff90limited conditions, is a major uncertainty in Earth System models. The Eucalyptus Free\uffe2\uff80\uff90Air CO2 Enrichment (EucFACE) experiment, recently established in a nutrient\uffe2\uff80\uff90 and water\uffe2\uff80\uff90limited woodland presents a unique opportunity to address this uncertainty, but can best do so if key model uncertainties have been identified in advance. We applied seven vegetation models, which have previously been comprehensively assessed against earlier forest FACE experiments, to simulate a priori possible outcomes from EucFACE. Our goals were to provide quantitative projections against which to evaluate data as they are collected, and to identify key measurements that should be made in the experiment to allow discrimination among alternative model assumptions in a postexperiment model intercomparison. Simulated responses of annual net primary productivity (NPP) to elevated Ca ranged from 0.5 to 25% across models. The simulated reduction of NPP during a low\uffe2\uff80\uff90rainfall year also varied widely, from 24 to 70%. Key processes where assumptions caused disagreement among models included nutrient limitations to growth; feedbacks to nutrient uptake; autotrophic respiration; and the impact of low soil moisture availability on plant processes. Knowledge of the causes of variation among models is now guiding data collection in the experiment, with the expectation that the experimental data can optimally inform future model improvements.

Elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration (eCa) might reduce forest water\uffe2\uff80\uff90use, due to decreased transpiration, following partial stomatal closure, thus enhancing water\uffe2\uff80\uff90use efficiency and productivity at low water availability. If evapotranspiration (Et) is reduced, it may subsequently increase soil water storage (\uffce\uff94S) or surface runoff (R) and drainage (Dg), although these could be offset or even reversed by changes in vegetation structure, mainly increased leaf area index (L). To understand the effect of eCa in a water\uffe2\uff80\uff90limited ecosystem, we tested whether 2\uffc2\uffa0years of eCa (~40% increase) affected the hydrological partitioning in a mature water\uffe2\uff80\uff90limited Eucalyptus woodland exposed to Free\uffe2\uff80\uff90Air CO2 Enrichment (FACE). This timeframe allowed us to evaluate whether physiological effects of eCa reduced stand water\uffe2\uff80\uff90use irrespective of L, which was unaffected by eCa in this timeframe. We hypothesized that eCa would reduce tree\uffe2\uff80\uff90canopy transpiration (Etree), but excess water from reduced Etree would be lost via increased soil evaporation and understory transpiration (Efloor) with no increase in \uffce\uff94S, R or Dg. We computed Et, \uffce\uff94S, R and Dg from measurements of sapflow velocity, L, soil water content (\uffce\uffb8), understory micrometeorology, throughfall and stemflow. We found that eCa did not affect Etree, Efloor, \uffce\uff94S or \uffce\uffb8 at any depth (to 4.5\uffc2\uffa0m) over the experimental period. We closed the water balance for dry seasons with no differences in the partitioning to R and Dg between Ca levels. Soil temperature and \uffce\uffb8 were the main drivers of Efloor while vapour pressure deficit\uffe2\uff80\uff90controlled Etree, though eCa did not significantly affect any of these relationships. Our results suggest that in the short\uffe2\uff80\uff90term, eCa does not significantly affect ecosystem water\uffe2\uff80\uff90use at this site. We conclude that water\uffe2\uff80\uff90savings under eCa mediated by either direct effects on plant transpiration or by indirect effects via changes in L or soil moisture availability are unlikely in water\uffe2\uff80\uff90limited mature eucalypt woodlands.

Row\uffe2\uff80\uff90crop agriculture is a major source of nitrous oxide (N2O) globally, and results from recent field experiments suggest that significant decreases in N2O emissions may be possible by decreasing nitrogen (N) fertilizer inputs without affecting economic return from grain yield. We tested this hypothesis on five commercially farmed fields in Michigan, USA planted with corn in 2007 and 2008. Six rates of N fertilizer (0\uffe2\uff80\uff93225\uffe2\uff80\uff83kg\uffe2\uff80\uff83N\uffe2\uff80\uff83ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921) were broadcast and incorporated before planting, as per local practice. Across all sites and years, increases in N2O flux were best described by a nonlinear, exponentially increasing response to increasing N rate. N2O emission factors per unit of N applied ranged from 0.6% to 1.5% and increased with increasing N application across all sites and years, especially at N rates above those required for maximum crop yield. At the two N fertilizer rates above those recommended for maximum economic return (135\uffe2\uff80\uff83kg\uffe2\uff80\uff83N\uffe2\uff80\uff83ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921), average N2O fluxes were 43% (18\uffe2\uff80\uff83g\uffe2\uff80\uff83N2O\uffe2\uff80\uff93N\uffe2\uff80\uff83ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921\uffe2\uff80\uff83day\uffe2\uff88\uff921) and 115% (26\uffe2\uff80\uff83g\uffe2\uff80\uff83N2O\uffe2\uff80\uff93N\uffe2\uff80\uff83ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921\uffe2\uff80\uff83day\uffe2\uff88\uff921) higher than were fluxes at the recommended rate, respectively.

Implications For Carbon Sequestration And Greenhouse Gas Emissions", "description": "Abstract

An important but little understood aspect of bioenergy production is its overall impact on soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling. Increased energy production from biomass will inevitably lead to higher input of its by\uffe2\uff80\uff90products to the soil as amendments or fertilizers. However, it is still unclear how these by\uffe2\uff80\uff90products will influence microbial transformation processes in soil, and thereby its greenhouse gas (GHG) balance and organic C stocks. In this study, we assess C and N dynamics and GHG emissions following application of different bioenergy by\uffe2\uff80\uff90products to soil. Ten by\uffe2\uff80\uff90products were selected from different bioenergy chains: anaerobic digestion (manure digestates), first generation biofuel by\uffe2\uff80\uff90products (rapeseed meal, distilled dried grains with solubles), second\uffe2\uff80\uff90generation biofuel by\uffe2\uff80\uff90products (nonfermentables from hydrolysis of different lignocellulosic materials) and pyrolysis (biochars). These by\uffe2\uff80\uff90products were added at a constant N rate (150\uffe2\uff80\uff83kg\uffe2\uff80\uff83N\uffe2\uff80\uff83ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921) to a sandy soil and incubated at 20\uffe2\uff80\uff83\uffc2\uffb0C. After 60 days, >80% of applied C had been emitted as CO2 in the first\uffe2\uff80\uff90generation biofuel residue treatments. For second\uffe2\uff80\uff90generation biofuel residues this was approximately 60%, and for digestates 40%. Biochars were the most stable residues with the lowest CO2 loss (between 0.5% and 5.8% of total added C). Regarding N2O emissions, addition of first\uffe2\uff80\uff90generation biofuel residues led to the highest total N2O emissions (between 2.5% and 6.0% of applied N). Second\uffe2\uff80\uff90generation biofuel residues emitted between 1.0% and 2.0% of applied N, with the original feedstock material resulting in similar N2O emissions and higher C mineralization rates. Anaerobic digestates resulted in emissions <1% of applied N. The two biochars used in this study decreased N2O emissions below background values. We conclude that GHG dynamics of by\uffe2\uff80\uff90products after soil amendment cannot be ignored and should be part of the lifecycle analysis of the various bioenergy production chains.

Ammonia (NH3) volatilization can reduce the efficiency of urea applied to the surface of no-till (NT) soils. Thus, the objectives of this study were to evaluate the magnitude of NH3 losses from surface-applied urea and to determine if this loss justifies the urea incorporation in soil or its substitution for other N sources under the subtropical climatic conditions of South-Central region of Paran\uffc3\uffa1 State, Brazil. The experiment, performed over four harvesting seasons in a clayey Hapludox followed a randomized block design with four replicates. A single dose of N (150 kg ha-1) to V5 growth stage of corn cultivated under NT system was applied and seven treatments were evaluated, including surface-applied urea, ammonium sulfate, ammonium nitrate, urea with urease inhibitor, controlled-release N source, a liquid N source, incorporated urea, and a control treatment with no N application. Ammonia volatilization was evaluated for 20 days after N application using a semi-open static system. The average cumulative NH3 loss due to the superficial application of urea was low (12.5 % of the applied N) compared to the losses observed in warmer regions of Southeastern Brazil (greater than 50 %). The greatest NH3 losses were observed in dry years (up to 25.4 % of the applied N), and losses decreased exponentially as the amount of rainfall after N application increased. Incorporated urea and alternative N sources, with the exception of controlled-release N source, decreased NH3 volatilization in comparison with surface-applied urea. Urea incorporation is advantageous for the reduction of NH3 volatilization; however, other aspects as its low operating efficiency should be considered before this practice is adopted. In the South-Central region of Paran\uffc3\uffa1, the low NH3 losses from the surface-applied urea in NT system due to wet springs and mild temperatures do not justify its replacement for other N sources.

Both natural and human-mediated changes in plant cover influence abiotic sediment properties and thus have cascading impacts on the biotic community. Using clipping (structural) and light (shading) manipulations in two salt marsh vegetation zones (one dominated by Spartina foliosa and one by Salicornia virginica), we tested whether these plant species exert influence on abiotic environmental factors and examined the mechanisms by which these changes regulate the biotic community. In an unshaded (plant and shade removal) treatment, marsh soils exhibited harsher physical properties, a microalgal community composition shift toward increased diatom dominance, and altered macrofaunal community composition with lower species richness, a larger proportion of insect larvae, and a smaller proportion of annelids, crustaceans, and oligochaetes compared to shaded (plant removal, shade mimic) and control treatment plots. Overall, the shaded treatment plots were similar to the controls. Plant cover removal also resulted in parallel shifts in microalgal and macrofaunal isotopic signatures of the most dynamic species. This suggests that animal responses are seen mainly among microalgae grazers and may be mediated by plant modification of microalgae.

Maize (Zea mays L.) production in the smallholder farming areas of Zimbabwe is based on both organic and mineral nutrient sources. A study was conducted to determine the effect of composted cattle manure, mineral N fertilizer, and their combinations on NO3 concentrations in leachate leaving the root zone and to establish N fertilization rates that minimize leaching. Maize was grown for three seasons (1996\uffe2\uff80\uff931997, 1997\uffe2\uff80\uff931998, and 1998\uffe2\uff80\uff931999) in field lysimeters repacked with a coarse\uffe2\uff80\uff90grained sandy soil (Typic Kandiustalf). Leachate volumes ranged from 480 to 509 mm yr\uffe2\uff88\uff921 (1395 mm rainfall) in 1996\uffe2\uff80\uff931997, 296 to 335 mm yr\uffe2\uff88\uff921 (840 mm rainfall) in 1997\uffe2\uff80\uff931998, and 606 to 635 mm yr\uffe2\uff88\uff921 (1387 mm rainfall) in 1998\uffe2\uff80\uff931999. Mineral N fertilizer, especially the high rate (120 kg N ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921), and manure plus mineral N fertilizer combinations resulted in high NO3 leachate concentrations (up to 34 mg N L\uffe2\uff88\uff921) and NO3 losses (up to 56 kg N ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921 yr\uffe2\uff88\uff921) in 1996\uffe2\uff80\uff931997, which represent both environmental and economic concerns. Although the leaching losses were relatively small in the other seasons, they are still of great significance in African smallholder farming where fertilizer is unaffordable for most farmers. Nitrate leaching from sole manure treatments was relatively low (average of less than 20 kg N ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921 yr\uffe2\uff88\uff921), whereas the crop uptake efficiency of mineral N fertilizer was enhanced by up to 26% when manure and mineral N fertilizer were applied in combination. The low manure (12.5 Mg ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921) plus 60 kg N ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921 fertilizer treatment was best in terms of maintaining dry matter yield and minimizing N leaching losses.

However, research is needed to confirm the suitability and sustainability of biochar application to different soils. To an irrigated calcareous soil, we applied stockpiled dairy manure (42 Mg ha dry wt) and hardwood-derived biochar (22.4 Mg ha), singly and in combination with manure, along with a control, yielding four treatments. Nitrogen fertilizer was applied when needed (based on preseason soil test N and crop requirements) in all plots and years, with N mineralized from added manure included in this determination.

High grain production of corn (Zea mays L.) can be maintained by adding inorganic N fertilizer, and also by using crop rotations that include alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), but the relative impact of these management practices on soil quality is uncertain. We examined the effects on soil of N fertilization rate (0, 90, 180, 270 kg ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921, corn phase only) in four cropping systems: CC, continuous corn; CS, corn\uffe2\uff80\uff93soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]; CCOA, corn\uffe2\uff80\uff93corn\uffe2\uff80\uff93oat (Avena sativa L.)\uffe2\uff80\uff93alfalfa; and corn\uffe2\uff80\uff93oat\uffe2\uff80\uff93alfalfa\uffe2\uff80\uff93alfalfa (COAA). The 23\uffe2\uff80\uff90 and 48\uffe2\uff80\uff90yr\uffe2\uff80\uff90old experimental sites, situated in northeast (Nashua) and north central (Kanawha) Iowa, were in a replicated split\uffe2\uff80\uff90plot design and managed with conventional tillage. At Nashua, we measured available N, potential net N mineralization and microbial biomass C (MBC) throughout the growing season; all were significantly higher in the CCOA system. At both sites, post\uffe2\uff80\uff90harvest N stocks, and soil organic C (SOC) concentrations were significantly higher in systems containing alfalfa. Grain yield was most strongly correlated with soil N properties. At Nashua, N fertilizer additions resulted in significantly lower soil pH (0\uffe2\uff80\uff90 to 15\uffe2\uff80\uff90cm depth) and lower exchangeable Ca, Mg, and K and cation exchange capacity (CEC) in the CC and CCOA systems. In an undisturbed prairie reference site for Nashua, low available N, low pH, and high CEC suggested a strong influence of the vegetation on nutrient cycling. In terms of management of soil fertility, inclusion of alfalfa in the rotation differed fundamentally from addition of N fertilizer because high yield was maintained with fewer adverse effects on soil quality.

Growing interest in the potential for agricultural soils to provide a sink for atmospheric C has prompted studies of effects of management on soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration. We analyzed the impact on SOC of four N fertilization rates (0\uffe2\uff80\uff93270 kg N ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921) and four cropping systems: continuous corn (CC) (Zea mays L.); corn\uffe2\uff80\uff93soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] (CS); corn\uffe2\uff80\uff93corn\uffe2\uff80\uff93oat\uffe2\uff80\uff93alfalfa (oat, Avena sativa L.; alfalfa, Medicago sativa L.) (CCOA), and corn\uffe2\uff80\uff93oat\uffe2\uff80\uff93alfalfa\uffe2\uff80\uff93alfalfa (COAA). Soils were sampled in 2002, Years 23 and 48 of the experiments located in northeast and north\uffe2\uff80\uff90central Iowa, respectively. The experiments were conducted using a replicated split\uffe2\uff80\uff90plot design under conventional tillage. A native prairie was sampled to provide a reference (for one site only). Cropping systems that contained alfalfa had the highest SOC stocks, whereas the CS system generally had the lowest SOC stocks. Concentrations of SOC increased significantly between 1990 and 2002 in only two of the nine systems for which historical data were available, the fertilized CC and COAA systems at one site. Soil quality indices such as particulate organic carbon (POC) were influenced by cropping system, with CS < CC < CCOA. In the native prairie, SOC, POC, and resistant C concentrations were 2.8, 2.6, and 3.9 times, respectively, the highest values in cropped soil, indicating that cultivated soils had not recovered to precultivation conditions. Although corn yields increased with N additions, N fertilization increased SOC stocks only in the CC system at one site. Considering the C cost for N fertilizer production, N fertilization generally had a net negative effect on C sequestration.

The importance of green technologies is steadily growing. Salt-tolerant plants have been proposed as energy crops for cultivation on saline lands. Halophytes such as Salicornia europaea, Tripolium pannonicum, Crithmum maritimum and Chenopodium quinoa, among many other species, can be cultivated in saline lands, in coastal areas or for treating saline wastewater, and the biomass might be used for biogas production as an integrated process of biorefining. However, halophytes have different salt tolerance mechanisms, including compartmentalization of salt in the vacuole, leading to an increase of sodium in the plant tissues. The sodium content of halophytes may have an adverse effect on the anaerobic digestion process, which needs adjustments to achieve stable and efficient conversion of the halophytes into biogas. This review gives an overview of the specificities of halophytes that needs to be accounted for using their biomass as feedstocks for biogas plants in order to expand renewable energy production. First, the different physiological mechanisms of halophytes to grow under saline conditions are described, which lead to the characteristic composition of the halophyte biomass, which may influence the biogas production. Next, possible mechanisms to avoid negative effects on the anaerobic digestion process are described, with an overview of full-scale applications. Taking all these aspects into account, halophyte plants have a great potential for biogas and methane production with yields similar to those produced by other energy crops and the simultaneous benefit of utilization of saline soils.

Cover crops (CC) introduced to reduce leaching of nitrate may also improve soil microbial properties and phosphorus (P) uptake in crops that follow. These effects may depend on soil P status and the quality of the CC residues.

Aim

Our aim was to quantify the more persistent effects of incorporation of residues of three different CC species on barley growth and P uptake and whether any response in growth and P uptake was related to soil P status and changes in soil microbial properties.

Methods

We examined the impact of soil P status, CC species, and residue fraction (shoots and/or roots) on the growth of winter barley (Hordeum vulgare) and soil microbial properties. Shoot and root residues from three contrasting CC (oats, Avena sativa; corncockle, Agrostemma githago; lupine, Lupinus angustifolius) were incubated for 2 months in soil with low and medium P status. Dry matter yield and P offtake characterized effects of CC residues on barley while phospholipid fatty acids (PLFAs), neutral lipid fatty acids (NLFAs), and enzyme activity characterized soil microbial properties after barley harvest.

Results

Effects of shoot residues on barley yield and P offtake appeared neutral or positive and not affected by soil P status, while the effect of root residues appeared negative for medium P soil and neutral for low P soil. With lupine shoot biomass, however, barley yield and P offtake increased in both soils. Neither CC treatments nor soil P status affected the microbial community composition (bacterial and fungal specific PLFAs). Lupine roots increased phosphomonoesterase, and lupine residues generally stimulated microbial abundance (total microbial PLFAs) compared to other CC treatments.

Conclusion

We conclude that the effect of CC residues on the following crop and soil microorganisms depends on soil P status and that lupine had the largest positive impact on barley growth.Halophyte plants are salt-tolerant and are acclimated for growth in saline soils such as along coastal areas. Among the halophytes, the Salicornia species have been used as both folk medicine and functional food for many years due to their high levels of bioactive compounds with supposed anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects. However, the properties of Salicornia bioactive extracts on pain and itching still remain unclear. In this study, 30 healthy volunteers were randomized to treatments with 10% Salicornia-based cream or placebo cream for 24 or 48 h. On day 0, and 24 or 48 h post cream application, cold/heat detection and pain thresholds, mechanical pain thresholds and sensitivity, trans-epidermal water loss, histamine- and cowhage-evoked itch, and micro-vascular reactivity (neurogenic inflammation) were assessed to evaluate the analgesic, anti-pruritogenic and vasomotor effects. Skin permeability was reduced in the Salicornia-treated area for 48 h compared with 24 h application (p-value < 0.05). After 48 h of application, a decrease in mechanical-evoked itching (hyperkinesis) compared with 24 h treatment (p-value < 0.05) and increased warm detection and heat pain thresholds (p-value < 0.05) was found. Histamine-induced neurogenic inflammation showed a significant reduction in the cream-treated areas after 48 h compared with 24 h (p-value < 0.05). The results of this study indicate the overall inhibitory effect of Salicornia on hyperkinesis (mechanically evoked itch), the analgesic effect on thermal sensation, and modulation of the skin barrier architecture. Further studies are needed for the assessment of the long-term effects.

Although the real timing and flow rates used for crop irrigation are controlled at the scale of individual plots by the irrigator, they are not generally known by the farm upper management. This information is nevertheless essential, not only to compute the water balance of irrigated plots and to schedule irrigation, but also for the management of water resources at regional scales. The aim of the present study was to detect irrigation timing using time series of surface soil moisture (SSM) derived from Sentinel-1 radar observations. The method consisted of assessing the direction of change of surface soil moisture (SSM) between observations and a water balance model, and to use thresholds to be calibrated. The performance of the approach was assessed on the F-score quantifying the accuracy of the irrigation event detections and ranging from 0 (none of the irrigation timing is correct) to 100 (perfect irrigation detection). The study focused on five irrigated and one rainfed plot of maize in South-West France, where the approach was tested using in situ measurements and surface soil moisture (SSM) maps derived from Sentinel-1 radar data. The use of in situ data showed that (1) irrigation timing was detected with a good accuracy (F-score in the range (80\uffe2\uff80\uff9383) for all plots) and (2) the optimal revisit time between two SSM observations was 2\uffe2\uff80\uff934 days. The higher uncertainties of microwave SSM products, especially when the crop is well developed (normalized difference of vegetation index (NDVI) > 0.7), degraded the score (F-score = 69), but various possibilities of improvement were discussed. This paper opens perspectives for the irrigation detection at the plot scale over large areas and thus for the improvement of irrigation water management.

Van Eerd, L. L., Congreves, K. A., Hayes, A., Verhallen, A. and Hooker, D. C. 2014. Long-term tillage and crop rotation effects on soil quality, organic carbon, and total nitrogen. Can. J. Soil Sci. 94: 303\uffe2\uff80\uff93315. Long-term studies allow for quantification of the effects of crop production practices, such as tillage and crop rotation, on soil quality and soil C and N stores. In two experiments at Ridgetown, ON, we evaluated the long-term (11 and 15 yr) effect of tillage system and crop rotation on soil quality via the Cornell Soil Health Assessment (CSHA) at 0\uffe2\uff80\uff9315 cm and soil organic C (SOC) and total N at 5-, 10-, and 20-cm increments to 120 cm depth. The CSHA soil quality score and SOC and total N were higher with no-till (NT) than fall moldboard plough with spring cultivation (conventional tillage, CT) and rotations with winter wheat [soybean\uffe2\uff80\uff93winter wheat (S-W) and soybean\uffe2\uff80\uff93winter wheat\uffe2\uff80\uff93corn (S-W-C)] compared with rotations without winter wheat. In both long-term trials, NT had ca. 21 Mg ha\uffe2\uff88\uff921more or 14% higher SOC than CT in the 0- to 100-cm soil profile, a trend which contrasts previous research in eastern Canada. Thus, the two long-term trial results at Ridgetown suggest that to improve soil quality and storage of C and N, growers on clay loam soil in southwestern Ontario should consider adopting NT production practices and including winter wheat in the rotation.

The plant economics spectrum is increasingly recognized as a major determinant of plant species effects on terrestrial ecosystem functioning related to carbon cycling. However, the role of plant economic strategies in the effects of living root activity on soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics through rhizodeposition remains unexplored, despite SOC being the largest terrestrial carbon pool. 2. Using a continuous 13C-labeling method allowing partitioning of plant and soil sources to carbon fluxes and pools, we studied here the linkages between plant economic strategies and SOC cycling processes in a \u2018common garden\u2019 greenhouse experiment. It includes a panel of 12 grassland species selected along a gradient of economic traits and belonging to three functionnal groups (C3 grasses, forbs and legumes). 3. All species induced an acceleration of native SOC mineralization but this rhizosphere priming effect (RPE) substantially differed across species and varied eleven-fold by the end of the experiment (from +26 to +295 % relative to unplanted soil). Interspecific variation in RPE was primarily linked to plant photosynthetic activity associated to species economic strategies of light and CO2 resource acquisition and processing. Fast-growing acquisitive species, such as legumes, featured large RPE, in relation with their high canopy photosynthesis coupled to high leaf photosynthetic capacity and large net primary productivity allocated aboveground. This large RPE was further associated with high root metabolic activity, rhizodeposition and soil microbial activity. In contrast, fine-root growth and economic traits related to soil resource foraging ability were poor predictors of RPE. 4. The formation of new root-derived SOC varied nine-fold across species and was similarly positively related to the net primary productivity allocated aboveground. Fast-growing acquisitive species with a high photosynthetic activity induced a disproportionately large RPE relative to SOC formation. 5. Synthesis. Overall, our study demonstrates that rhizodeposition is a major mechanism through which plant economic strategies of grassland species control soil carbon dynamics. Acquisitive versus conservative species were associated with high versus low rates of photosynthesis and rhizodeposition, in turn leading to fast versus slow SOC turnover. This emphasizes the importance of considering rhizosphere processes for understanding plant species effects on soil biogeochemistry.", "keywords": ["2.

The fields represent a range of cropping systems common in the Upper Midwest. Six distinct regions were sampled and identified by either general region of a state (northeast Wisconsin, southeast Wisconsin, and southern Minnesota) or by watershed (Dry Run, Elk Creek, Jersey Valley) (Fig. 1). Elk Creek and Jersey Valley exist within the Driftless Region, an area characterized by steep slopes and flash flood events. All fields were planted into corn the season soil samples were collected. In each field, three composite soil samples were collected that consisted of five 0- to 15-cm soil cores collected with a probe of 2.5- or 7.5-cm internal diameter. Most soil samples (194) were collected prior to fertilizer application and corn planting (mid-April); 24 samples were in late June (2017 only). Soil sampling was conducted with an area of 36 m2 within the dominant soil map unit as identified by the USDA NRCS Web Soil Survey (Soil Survey Staff, 2019) and from an area identified by the farmer where average crop yields were obtained. The composite samples were stored cold and transferred into a freezer with 1 to 6 hours of sampling to stagnate microbial metabolism and organic matter mineralization. Within 30 days, soil samples were thawed and dried for 1 week at 32\u02daC in a forced-air drier, ground to pass through a 2-mm sieve, and stored at room temperature until analysis. Inherent soil properties such as texture class, sand and clay content of the surface horizon, and drainage class were obtained from the USDA NRCS Web Soil Survey (Soil Survey Staff, 2019). Agronomic management information regarding crop rotation, tillage practices, cover crop use, tile drainage, and manure and fertilizer applications were obtained directly from each farmer through an in-person interview. Long-term crop management practices were difficult to obtain for all farms; for example, it was difficult to get accurate information on how long a field had received manure. The dataset constructed uses recent cropping history (past 5 years) as a representation of specific management practices (that often have occurred much longer than just the past 5 years). Based on the collected data, four categories for crop rotation (continuous corn, corn-soybean, corn with small grain, and corn with alfalfa) and five categories for previous crop were created (Supplementary Table 2). Two categorical data were developed for cover crops: if there was a cover crop planted last fall (yes or no) and the number of times a cover crop was planted in the past 5 years. Tillage practices were categorized by practice [no tillage, minimum tillage (including vertical tillage or strip tillage), and conventional tillage (chisel, disk or moldboard)] and by the number of tillage passes that occurred between harvest of the previous year\u2019s crop and the planting of the current year\u2019s crop (0 to 4). Tillage was only considered no-till or minimum tillage if practiced for more than 4 years. Manure was categorized based on the number of manure applications that occurred in the past 5 years (0 to 5), when manure was applied in the past year (none, summer, fall, winter, or spring), and manure type (species and if solid or liquid). Tile drainage presence was also noted (yes or no). The manure N, fertilizer N, and total N input (which includes manure, fertilizer, and legume N inputs) (kg ha-1) to the previous corn crop were also collected. If farmers did not have manure analysis, estimates of available N were used (Laboski & Peters, 2012); N input from alfalfa biomass was assumed to be 101 kg ha-1 (Laboski & Peters, 2012).\u00a0 Soil analysis.\u00a0 Soil pH and SOM were analyzed by the University of Wisconsin Soil and Forage Analysis Laboratory (Marshfield, Wisconsin). Soil pH was calculated using a 1:1 slurry of 10 g soil and 10 mL of deionized water and measured with a glass electrode (Peters et al., 2015). Soil organic matter values were determined through loss on ignition by heating the soil to 360\u02daC for 2 hours (Combs et al., 2015). Total C (TC) and total N (TN) levels were determined via the dry combustion method using a Flash EA 1112CN Automatic Elemental Analyzer (Thermo Finnigan, Milan, Italy). Between 8 to 10 mg of finely ground soil were packed into a 5 mm by 9 mm tin capsule prior to combustion at temperatures exceeding 1000\u00b0C. Soils with pH greater than 7.0 were tested for effervescence using 5% HCl as an indicator if carbonates were present. If carbonates were not observed, TC was assumed to be TOC; if carbonates were observed, they were subject to acid-fumigation prior to dry combustion (Harris et al., 2001). Only 25 samples were analyzed for carbonates and 13 of those had carbonate concentrations above the detection limit. There were 218 samples for SOM, but only 2016 for TOC and TN because two samples were accidently discarded.", "keywords": ["2. Zero hunger", "Alfalfa", "FOS: Agricultural sciences", "15.

All the cases were treated with femtosecond laser-assisted Keraring implantation followed after 2 weeks by transepithelial accelerated CXL, and the patients were followed up for 1 year.Results: The preoperative mean uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) was 1.01±0.2 (logMAR), whereas the postoperative mean UCVA was 0.6±0.2. The preoperative mean best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.6±0.1, whereas the postoperative mean BCVA was 0.40±0.2. The preoperative average keratometry was 50.3±2.7 D, whereas the postoperative average keratometry was 45.8±3.1 D. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that femtosecond laser-assisted Keraring implantation followed by CXL is safe and effective in the management of keratoconus in children with VKC. However, studies with a longer follow-up period are needed.
