Summary: The long-term application of chemical fertilizers has worsened red soil acidification and early defoliation in southern China's pear-growing region. Through a 2-year pot experiment, it was found that the use of bioorganic fertilizer or bioorganic fertilizer combined with humic acid can significantly reduce the early defoliation rate of pear trees, improve aboveground growth, leaf micronutrients content, soil pH value, soil exchangeable calcium content, and total lateral root growth and activity. These treatments help alleviate early defoliation by stimulating lateral root growth and activity, ultimately enhancing leaf micronutrients content and aboveground growth.

Summary: In this study, it was found that the application of Bacillus subtilis bioorganic fertilizer effectively improved the growth and biomass of Brassica chinensis L. plants, as well as significantly increased soil availability of potassium and pH value. High-throughput sequencing results showed that the application of bioorganic fertilizer reduced the diversity of bacterial and fungal communities in the soil, and promoted the colonization of beneficial microbes. Predictive functional profiling also demonstrated that the bioorganic fertilizer enhanced the function of mineral element metabolism and absorption in the soil. This study has important implications for promoting safe planting of facility vegetables and the sustainable development of green agriculture.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of biochar and bioorganic fertilizer (BOF) on the microecology of saline-alkaline rhizosphere soil using 16S rRNA sequencing. The results showed that co-application of biochar and BOF had the greatest improvement on rhizosphere soil microecology, followed by BOF alone and biochar alone. Higher application rate of biochar and fine biochar particles had stronger effects.

Summary: Adding humic acid to phosphate fertilizer production can improve fertilizer efficiency and promote crop growth. This study investigates the chemical and biological mechanisms of humic-acid-added phosphate fertilizers. The results show that humic acid phosphate fertilizer forms phosphate esters and changes the soil microbial community structure, enhancing soil enzyme activity and nutrient absorption by plants.

Summary: A study was conducted to investigate the soil nutrient status of pear orchards in Beijing. It was found that most pear orchards used organic fertilizer as a nutrient source and had surplus nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Additionally, many orchards faced environmental and leaching risks, with high phosphorus content exceeding the critical value.

Summary: The use of organic waste as a soil additive can improve soil nutrient levels and enhance soil quality. This study investigated the effects of composted spent mushroom substrate, giant panda feces, and cattle manure as organic fertilizers on soil microbial communities and metabolites. The results showed significant differences in microbial communities and metabolites between the organic fertilizer treatments and the control group, indicating that organic fertilizers can promote the production of low molecular-weight metabolites, such as amino acids.

Summary: The study found that using organic fertilizer can increase AM fungal biomass and reduce the negative impact on AMF richness compared to mineral-only fertilization. Organic fertilizer had positive effects on AMF in specific conditions and negative effects in others. Organic carbon input, increased soil phosphorus, and the ratio of fertilizer N and P were identified as factors influencing the effects of organic fertilizer on AMF occurrence.
