Book Microbiome mediated Influence on Negative Plant soil Feedback Process of Organic and Conventional Farming Systems

Download or read book Microbiome mediated Influence on Negative Plant soil Feedback Process of Organic and Conventional Farming Systems written by Liang Cheng and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plants influence the microbiome and abiotic properties of soils to a substantial extent, which could cause feedback effects on subsequent plantings. Plant-soil feedback (PSF) can be positive, negative, or neutral, contributing to management implications for a variety of agricultural systems. The goal of the dissertation research is to uncover the microbial drivers of negative plant-soil feedback using a model weed species, common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia L.), that is native to North America and has expanded its geographic range across Europe and Asia. Specifically, we: 1) conducted literature research for novel methodologies and approaches in screening the soil microbiome for weed biocontrol agents and bioherbicide; 2) investigated microbiome-mediated variation in PSF intensity across organic and conventional farming systems using A. artemisiifolia as the model plant; 3) examined the role of root exudates in driving soil microbiome-mediated PSF between organic and conventional farming systems; and 4) explored the feasibility of GHz ultrasonic imaging in screening large-insert metagenomic libraries of weed suppressive rhizospheres for novel natural product discovery of herbicidal compounds. The second chapter greenhouse PSF study showed that microbiome-mediated PSF of common ragweed was mostly negative and differed in intensity between organic and conventional farming systems. The PSF was driven by a small subset of the microbiome. The third chapter growth chamber study suggested that root exudates of common ragweed shifted the soil microbiome and drove the different PSF responses between organic and conventional system microbiomes. The fourth chapter exploratory work with the GHz ultrasonic chip showed a potential alternative for high throughput screening of metagenomic libraries for natural product discovery featuring a bioactive clone uncovered from the rhizosphere of A. artemisiifolia. Overall, our work shows that distinct PSF responses between organic and conventional farming systems can be mediated by the soil microbiome and root exudates. These studies are the first to indicate variability in PSF intensities by farming management systems and in comparison to whole plant versus root exudate contributions. Our research provides further understanding of the mechanisms of negative PSF and contributes to novel insights into weed management strategies in regenerative agriculture.

Download or read book Plant Microbe Dynamics written by Tanveer Bilal Pirzadah and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-06-07 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plants and microbes have co-evolved and interacted with each other in nature. Understanding the complex nature of the plant-microbe interface can pave the way for novel strategies to improve plant productivity in an eco-friendly manner. The microbes associated with plants, often called plant microbiota, are an integral part of plant life. The significance of the plant microbiome is a reliable approach toward sustainability to meet future food crises and rejuvenate soil health. Profiling plant-associate microbiomes (genome assemblies of all microbes) is an emerging concept in understanding plant-microbe interactions. Microbiota extends the plant capacity to acclimatize fluctuating environmental conditions through several mechanisms. Thus, unraveling the mystery of plant-microbe dynamics through latest technologies to better understand the role of metabolites and signal pathway mechanisms is very important. This book shares the latest insight on omics technologies to unravel plant-microbe dynamic interactions and other novel phytotechnologies for cleaning contaminated soils. Besides, it also provides brief insight on the recently discovered clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats CRISPR-Cas9, which is a genome editing tool to explore plant-microbe interactions and how this genome editing tool helps to improve the ability of microbes/plants to combat abiotic/biotic stresses.

Book Essential Minerals in Plant Soil Systems

Download or read book Essential Minerals in Plant Soil Systems written by Azamal Husen and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2024-04-29 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essential Minerals in Plant-Soil Systems: Coordination, Signaling and Interaction Under Adverse Conditions is the first book to encompass these key aspects of plant science, biochemistry, soil science and fertilizer development in a single volume. Describing the micro- and macronutrients in the plant-soil system with the help of suitable illustrations, the book connects all the pieces enabling comprehensive and connected understanding. Terrestrial plants are sessile in nature. They face various adverse environmental conditions including soil nutrient-deficiency signals, which influence overall plant growth and development. Some of the essential nutrients are unreachable to roots due to their low solubility and relative immobilization. Thus, the soil-plant system has evolved signaling, communication and coordination responses for survival under multiple adverse situations. By evolving highly sophisticated mechanisms at the cellular as well as whole-plant scale, these plants have developed ways to co-regulate these stresses in order to maintain homeostasis. Essential Minerals in Plant-Soil Systems covers recent advances in the understanding of how plants coordinate the acquisition, transport, signaling, and interaction, cross-talks between macro- and micro-nutrients in adverse environmental situations. These points are key to understanding the significance of essential, as well as beneficial, elements for sustainable plant growth and production. This book is a valuable reference for those putting research into practice in addressing stress situations, as well as providing important foundational insights for further research. - Provides a comprehensive overview of micro- and macronutrients and their interaction with phytohormones under stress conditions - Explores proteomic and genomic research into deficiencies and toxicities in plant systems - Highlights the use of nanobiotechnology for controlled release of micro- and macronutrients in the plant-soil systems
