La stabilité structurale est une propriété physique des sols importante, indicatrice de leur
sensibilité à la battance et à l'érosion. Les sols limoneux, qui couvrent des surfaces …

The use of pesticides in agriculture has highly increased during the last 40 years to increase
crop yields. However, today most pesticides are polluting water, soil, atmosphere and food. …

In the course of a 1 year study on agricultural plots (mustard-beet) the impact of organic
materials and soil management on soil microbial communities was assessed after amendment …

Root tips of many plant species release a number of border, or border-like, cells that are
thought to play a major role in the protection of root meristem. However, little is currently known …

Links between the microbial community structure and soil functions are unclear. The study
of these relationships requires the development of highly specific experimental approaches. …

Background and Aims The oomycete Aphanomyces euteiches causes up to 80 % crop loss
in pea (Pisum sativum). Aphanomyces euteiches invades the root system leading to a …

The influence of ageing grassland on microbial community structure in different long-term
grassland regimes compared to tillage in neighbouring fields was investigated to evaluate …

Enzymes are known to be sensitive indicators of soil quality. Nevertheless, the natural
variability of their activities needs to be considered for a relevant interpretation of activity levels, …

Aims. – The structure of the microbial community in soils was analyzed through the sole-carbon-source
utilization profiles using ECO Biolog microplates; this analysis was evaluated in …

Deployment of Phosphate Solubilizing Bacteria (PSB) can enhance plant P uptake through
remobilization of recalcitrant forms of P in soil. In this study, bacterial strains isolated in the …
