We used the comprehensive evaluation index concept (CEI) to assess the synergies and trade-offs of the different crop rotations related to yield, nutritional value, soil-related indicators (health, C sequestration, microbial biodiversity), net GHG emissions, and economic benefit (Eqs.11–20in Metho...

Prevention and control of plant diseases are major concerns in modern agriculture, and effective measures are consistent with modern farm management strategies [1]. Recent studies have shown that one of the most important factors affecting plant health is the presence of soil microorganisms closely ass...
Earthworms are well-known “ecosystem engineers” regarded as essential for the maintenance of soil health and plant production in agroecosystems [4]. They are generally assumed to have positive or neutral effects on ecosystem functions, such as soil physical structure and soil organic carbon stock ...

sampling schemes. Overall, our study suggests that biotic homogenization of the belowground microbiome across large spatial scale should be taken into account when evaluating the sustainability and soil health of agricultural management practices. Methods...

(CH4N2O) in W1 and W2 was applied as a base fertilizer before planting, and half was applied at the jointing stage. All of the nitrogen fertilizers in W0 were applied as base before planting. The management practices for controlling pests, diseases, and weeds complied with local practices ...
Prebiotics are compounds that selectively stimulate the growth and activity of beneficial microorganisms. The use of prebiotics is a well-established strategy for managing human gut health. This concept can also be extended to plants where plant rhizosph
In addition, HM deposition caused soil erosion and the destruction of vegetation on cultivated land by mining and smelting and as result HM accumulation in the food chain continues, which also poses a serious health hazard. Currently, great concern has been growing about waste dispersion and soil...
