Summary: The addition of biogas slurry increases the relative abundance of Geobacter during rice growth, which is regulated by total organic carbon. Gene expression and metabolic activities significantly influence the carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus balance during the mature stage.

Summary: Animal manures, especially pig manure, can be considered as good substitutes for chemical fertilizers in paddy soils. They can enhance microbial biomass and promote the transformation of moderately labile phosphorus to labile phosphorus, thus improving soil phosphorus availability.

Summary: The study examined the occurrence and distribution of microbial communities and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in food waste, anaerobic digestate, and paddy soil samples. It identified 24 bacterial phyla, 16 of which were common to all samples, with Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Actinobacteria, and Proteobacteria being the most dominant. The study also found 22 ARGs, with multidrug, MLS, bacitracin, aminoglycoside, tetracycline, vancomycin, sulfonamide, and rifamycin resistance genes being the most abundant. The analysis revealed potential hosts of ARGs and factors influencing their distribution.

Summary: This study revealed that high concentration of AgNPs (50 mg/kg) significantly increased soil denitrification rate and N2O emission rate, and also affected the microbial community, with Firmicutes and beta-proteobacteria potentially playing a key role in N2O emissions.

Summary: Microplastics are widely present in farmland soils. This study found that the addition of microplastics may have an inhibitory effect on the nitrogen cycle in paddy soils, and the effect of degradable microplastics may be greater than that of non-degradable microplastics.

Summary: This study investigated the responses of electrotrophic communities in paddy soil to different long-term fertilization practices, revealing significant changes in the community structure. The dominant electrotrophs were identified as Streptomyces genus in the CK, M, and MNPK soils, while Proteobacteria and Firmicutes were major electrotrophs in the NPK soil. Furthermore, it was found that electrotrophs enhanced dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA) for all soils.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) on dissimilatory iron reducing bacteria (DIRB) and feammox in paddy soils. The results showed that VFAs could promote Fe(III) reduction and compete with the feammox process, leading to a decrease in soil NH4+ loss.

Summary: Fe(II)-oxidizing bacteria play a crucial role in iron cycling in various environments, but their distribution and diversity in flooded paddy soils have been less studied. This research investigates the microbial structure and diversity of microaerophilic Fe(II)-oxidizing bacteria in iron-rich paddy soils through enrichment experiments. The study found that the Fe(II) oxidation rate decreased with increased transfers, with certain bacterial phyla becoming dominant, suggesting the involvement of other bacterial species in the Fe(II)-oxidizing process.

Summary: This study revealed that the structure of microbial community in paddy soils is strongly impacted by long-term fertilization, regardless of the type of fertilizer used. Both mineral and mineral plus organic fertilization increased the biomass of gram-positive (G+) bacteria, with important ecological implications for paddy soil.

Summary: The study found that the effect of lime on pH improvement in soil becomes insignificant when the application rate exceeds 1800 kg ha(-1). The diversity and community composition of prokaryotes are significantly influenced by lime, while fungal communities are less responsive. The results provide insights into the complex responses of both prokaryotic and fungal communities to lime application in paddy soils and emphasize the importance of the amount of lime applied for maintaining a healthy and sustainable soil environment.

Summary: Water and fertilizer managements have been extensively studied for their long-term impact on soil microbial communities, but the initial response of microbes to these practices remains unclear. This study investigated the immediate effects of nitrogen fertilizer application and moisture levels on microbial communities in paddy soils. The results showed that moisture had a stronger influence on the abundance and community composition of total soil bacteria, as well as ammonia oxidizing-archaea and -bacteria. Fertilizer application, on the other hand, reduced the connectivity and complexity of the total bacteria network, with moisture exacerbating these effects.
