plants and soil microbes are the main sources of most enzymes available in the environment. it is, therefore, anticipated that any change in the growth of soil biota in response to salinity, may reduce the synthesis and production of extra- and intra- cellular enzymes. as a result, a reduction in the growth of plants and the activity of soil microbes in saline environments may lessen the level ...

The use of different instrumental methods as an alternative to traditional has become important issue in order detect soil change accurately, quickly and economically. In this study, profiles formed over four common parent materials (Mudflow, Basalt, Limestone Marl) Sanliurfa province Turkey were described. Soil samples collected from each horizon, addition, surface (0-20 cm) cultivated unculti...

The tendency of microbiota changes in the soil Ganoderma leucocontextum continuous cultivation is investigated by high-throughput sequencing technology. Medium bag G. with uncultivated significantly increased organic matter (OM), hydrolyzable nitrogen, available phosphorus, and potassium content soil. relative abundance dominant beneficial bacteria (Sphingomonas spp., Mucilaginibacter Bryobacte...

Microarrays have unprecedented potential for the high-throughput detection and characterization of uncultivated microorganisms. Several different types of arrays have been developed or adapted for the interrogation of microbial genomes and monitoring microbial population dynamics and/or activity in relation to various microbial processes such as bioremediation and biogeochemical cycling.

Jamshedpur is an industrial town with a population of nearly two lacs composed of both factory employees and non-employees, the for' mer predominating. The town is surrounded by cultivated and uncultivated lands all around, fringed by moderately high hills. The lay-out1 of the town consists mostly of bungalows and labourers' quarters with scrub or grass-land around the dwellings. The soil is ro...

Yeasts are a polyphyletic group of ascomycete and basidiomycete fungi characterized by having a unicellular growth phase and sexual stages that are not enclosed in fruiting bodies. An attempt was made to identify yeast species in uncultivated soils collected from different areas of Kermanshah province, Iran, by analyzing hypervariable D1/D2 domain of the large subunit (LSU) rDNA gene sequencean...

Soils serve as the biological sink of the potent greenhouse gas methane with exceptionally low concentrations of ∼1.84 p.p.m.v. in the atmosphere. The as-yet-uncultivated methane-consuming bacteria have long been proposed to be responsible for this 'high-affinity' methane oxidation (HAMO). Here we show an emerging HAMO activity arising from conventional methanotrophs in paddy soil. HAMO activit...

Grassland management regimens influence the structure of archaeal communities in upland pasture soils, which appear to be dominated by as yet uncultivated non-thermophilic Crenarchaeota. In an attempt to determine which grassland management factors select for particular crenarchaeal community structures, soil microcosm experiments were performed examining the effect of increased pH, application...

The diversity of bacterial isolates from soil in response to different plants (control, Brachiaria ruziziensis and Cajanus cajan), fertilization (control, simple superphosphate and rock phosphate) and liming (with and without lime) was evaluated. Phenotypic and physiological characteristics of the isolates were recorded and organized in a file to identify the bacteria. Among the isolates, 95% w...
