Biochar application to soil proves to be a suitable solution to these problems. Although the literature presents the pros and cons of biochar application, very little information is available on the impact of repeated application. In this study, we evaluate and discuss the effects of initial and reapplied biochar (both in rates of 0, 10, and 20 t ha−1) combined with N fertilization (at doses of 0, 40, and 80 kg ha−1) on soil properties and N O emission from Haplic Luvisol in the temperate climate zone (Slovakia). Results showed that 2 biochar generally improved the soil properties such as soil pH(KCl) (p ≤ 0.05; from acidic towards Citation: Horák, J.; Kotuš, T.; Toková, moderately acidic), soil organic carbon (p ≤ 0.05; an increase from 4% to over 100%), soil water L.; Aydın, E.; Igaz, D.; Šimanský, V.

Chapter 2 The Management of Soil Quality and Plant Productivity in Stressed Environment with Rhizobacteria Dilfuza Egamberdieva 2.1 Introduction The urgency of feeding the world’s growing population while combating soil pollution, salinization, and desertification has given plant and soil productivity research vital importance. Under such circumstances, it requires suitable biotech- nology not only to improve crop productivity but also to improve soil health through interactions of plant roots and soil microorganisms (Lugtenberg et al. 2002). Interest in bacterial fertilizers has increased, as it would substantially reduce the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides which often contribute to the pollution of soil–water ecosystems. Presently, about 20 biocontrol products based on Pseu- domonas, Bacillus, Streptomyces, and Agrobacterium strains have been commercialized, but there still is a need to improve the efficacy of these biocontrol products (Copping 2004; Chebotar et al. 2000; Lugtenberg and Kamilova 2004). Soil salinity disturbs the plant–microbe interaction, which is a critical ecological factor to help further plant growth in degraded ecosystems (Paul and Nair 2008).

Zweigelt and some qualitative parameters of the grapes. The applications were repeated 4 times in stages BBCH 15–19; 55; 75 and 83. The experiment was carried out on soil well supplied with Mg and K in the subsoil layer. In terms of average 3-year results the grape yields were by 11.2% (MgSO4), 13.9% (K2SO4) and 6.6% (MgSO4 + K2SO4) significantly higher than the untreated control. The sugar content of grapes (sum of glucose and fructose) was lower (mostly insignificantly) by 0.5–4.3% in all the fertilized treatments than in the untreated control.

  • Soil Fertility Management in Apple Orchard with Microbial Biofertilizers
    E3S Web of Conferences 222, 03020 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202022203020 DAIC 2020 Soil fertility management in apple orchard with microbial biofertilizers Andrei Kuzin1,3,,⃰ Alexei Solovchenko1,2, Ludmila Stepantsova3, и Grigory Pugachev1 1 I.V. Michurin Federal Scientific Centre, Michurins str., 30, Michurinsk, 393774, Russia 3Lomonosov Moscow State University, Leninskie Gory, 1, Москва, 119991, Russia 3 Michurinsk State Agrarian University, Internarsionalnaya str., 101, Michurinsk, 393760, Russia Abstract. Intensification of horticulture in Russia involves planting of new high-density orchards with drip irrigation and fertigation as well as intensification of the exploitation of traditional orchards. This approach involves an increase in mineral fertilizer application imposing the risk of soil fertility loss. For several reasons, the use of traditional organic fertilizers like manure in orchards is currently marginal. Although bacteria- based biofertilizers cannot substitute mineral fertilizers completely, they can significantly reduce the need for mineral fertilizer application. The effect of microbial biofertilizers of the brands "Azotovit" (Azotobacter chroococcum), "Phosphatovit" (Bacillus mucilaginosus), as well as a mixture of bacteria and the fungus, "Organic" (Azotobacter chroococcum, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus megaterium, Trichoderma harzian) was studied in two field experiments. In the experiment #1, the preparations "Azotovit" and "Phosphatovit" were delivered through a drip irrigation system in various combinations with mineral fertilizers. In experiment #2, the preparation "Organic" was also applied to the soil with irrigation water, also in combination with the mineral fertilizer. When solely applied, none of the studied preparations changed significantly the soil nutrient content and yield as compared with the variant fertilized by the mineral fertilizer at the maximum studied application rate.

Here, we report the investigation of Citation: Housh, A.B.; Benoit, M.; functional mutants HM053, ipdC and FP10 of A. brasilense to understand how the biological functions Wilder, S.L.; Scott, S.; Powell, G.; of these microorganisms can affect host Zn uptake. HM053 is a Nif + constitutively expressed strain Schueller, M.J.; Ferrieri, R.A. - that hyper-fixes N2 and produces high levels of the plant’s relevant hormone auxin. FP10 is a Nif Plant-Growth-Promoting Bacteria strain deficient in N2-fixation.

  • Weed Vegetation in Conventional and Organic Farming in West Bohemia (Czech Republic)
    Original Paper Plant, Soil and Environment, 67, 2021 (7): 376–382 https://doi.org/10.17221/6/2021-PSE Weed vegetation in conventional and organic farming in West Bohemia (Czech Republic) Luděk Tyšer, Michaela Kolářová*, Ondřej Tulačka, Pavel Hamouz Department of Agroecology and Crop Production, Faculty of Agrobiology, Food and Natural Resources, Czech University of Life Sciences Prague, Prague, Czech Republic *Corresponding author: [email protected] Citation: Tyšer L., Kolářová M., Tulačka O., Hamouz P. (2021): Weed vegetation in conventional and organic farming in West Bohemia (Czech Republic). Plant Soil Environ., 67: 376–382. Abstract: The paper presents species richness and composition of arable weed vegetation in the region of West Bohemia (Czech Republic) in different types of farming (conventional and organic) and grown crops (winter and spring cereals, wide-row crops). During the field survey in the years 2007 to 2017, 105 phytocoenological relevés were recorded. The average species richness in one relevé was significantly higher in organic farming, as well as total weed cover. The lowest species richness was found in wide-row crops. Recently widespread species belonged to the most frequent species in our study. Based on multivariate statistics, the effects of variables on the occurrence of weed species were found as statistically significant. Most of the variability in data was explained by crop, following by type of farming. Weed species of Fabaceae Lindl. family (especially Vicia L.) and many perennial species positively correlated with the organic type of farming. Endangered species were found mainly in organic farming and cereals. Less intensive cultivation with a higher weed cover is beneficial for the promotion of biodiversity.
