Project description:The spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARG) into agricultural soils, products, and foods severely limits the use of organic fertilizers in agriculture. In this study, experimental land plots were fertilized, sown, and harvested for two consecutive agricultural cycles using either mineral or three types of organic fertilizers: sewage sludge, pig slurry, or composted organic fraction of municipal solid waste. The analysis of the relative abundances of more than 200,000 ASV (Amplicon Sequence Variants) allowed the identification of a small, but significant (<10%) overlap between soil and fertilizer microbiomes, particularly in soils sampled the same day of the harvest (post-harvest soils). Loads of clinically relevant ARG were significantly higher (up to 100 fold) in fertilized soils relative to the initial soil. The highest increases corresponded to post-harvest soils treated with organic fertilizers, and they correlated with the extend of the contribution of fertilizers to the soil microbiome. Edible products (lettuce and radish) showed low, but measurable loads of ARG (sul1 for lettuces and radish, tetM for lettuces). These loads were minimal in mineral fertilized soils, and strongly dependent on the type of fertilizer. We concluded that at least part of the observed increase on ARG loads in soils and foodstuffs were actual contributions from the fertilizer microbiomes. Thus, we propose that adequate waste management and good pharmacological and veterinarian practices may significantly reduce the potential health risk posed by the presence of ARG in agricultural soils and plant products.

Project description:Two maize hybrid cultivars contrasting in low nitrogen tolerance (low nitrogen-tolerant XY335 and low nitrogen-sensitive HN178) were used in this study . The experiment was carried out at Xinji Experimental Station (43º31′N, 124º48′E) of Hebei Agricultural University. The top 0-20 cm of the soil used contained organic matter 17.79 g·kg-1, total nitrogen 1.21 g·kg-1, alkali hydrolyzed nitrogen 64.9 mg.kg-1, available phosphorus 23.8 mg·kg-1, and available potassium 120.6 mg·kg-1. The experiment adopted a split plot design, with varieties as the main plot and nitrogen fertilizer as the sub-plot. There were 2 varieties for testing: XY335 and HN138. Two levels of nitrogen supply: N0 (0 kg N ha-1) and N240 (240 kg N ha-1), replicated three times. Each plot had 6 rows, with the row length measuring 20 m, and the row spacing of 60 cm, giving the plot area of 72 m2. The planting density was 67,500 plants ha-1. Nitrogen fertilizer used was urea (46% N), and 50% was applied before sowing and at the flared stage, respectively. During the grain filling stage, leaf tissues of three biological replicates were collected from control and treatment conditions, and immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen for subsequent proteomics analysis.

Project description:Land cover change has long been recognized that marked effect the amount of soil organic carbon. However, little is known about microbial-mediated effect processes and mechanism on soil organic carbon. In this study, the soil samples in a degenerated succession from alpine meadow to alpine steppe meadow in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau degenerated, were analyzed by using GeoChip functional gene arrays.

Project description:The response to moderate and heavy drought of two Solanum tuberosum ssp. Andigena varieties, Sullu (NP 03.03) and SA 2563 (NP 03.01), planted in rain- and soil water protected fields in the Peruvian highlands are compared. Previous experiments indicate that Sullu has a greater capacity for yield maintenance under drought than SA 2563. Both clones have similar morphological properties, vegetative periods and rooting depths, so it can be assumed that the cause for increased drought tolerance of clone NP 03.03 is rather due to physiological or biochemical mechanisms, than to drought escape by deep rooting or earliness. Sullu and SA 2563 were planted in a random block design with 5 plants per bloc and 7 repetitions per treatment. Treatments: (1) drought stress, (2) irrigated control The plants were drip-irrigated in both treatments until tuberization (until day 84 after planting). Subsequently, the irrigation was stopped in the drought field, but continued in the control field. The soil moisture content in the control field was kept near field capacity. Planting date: October 05 2004 Start of drought treatment (during tuberization, 84 days after planting): December 28 2004 First sampling (soil water potential: -0.3 mPa 114 days after planting): January 27 2005 Second sampling (soil water potential –0.6 MPa, 134 days after planting): February 15 2005 Harvest: March 19 2005 (165 days after planting) The experimental design includes gene expression analysis in leaves, roots and stolons at two time points, when soil water potential reaches -0.3 and –0.6 MPa. Gene expression changes will be set in relation with physiological and agronomical data obtained in the same experiment. Keywords: Direct comparison

Project description:Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi contribute to plant nutrient uptake in systems managed with reduced fertilizer inputs such as organic agriculture and natural ecosystems by extending the effective size of the rhizosphere and delivering mineral. Connecting the molecular study of the AM symbiosis with agriculturally- and ecologically-relevant field environments remains a challenge and is a largely unexplored research topic. This study utilized a cross-disciplinary approach to examine the transcriptional, metabolic, and physiological responses of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) AM roots to a localized patch of nitrogen (N). A wild-type mycorrhizal tomato and a closely-related nonmycorrhizal mutant were grown at an organic farm in soil that contained an active AM extraradical hyphal network and soil microbe community. The majority of genes regulated by upon enrichment of nitrogen were similarly expressed in mycorrhizal and nonmycorrhizal roots, suggesting that the primary response to an enriched N patch is mediated by mycorrhiza-independent root processes. However where inorganic N concentrations in the soil were low, differential regulation of key tomato N transport and assimilation genes indicate a transcriptome shift towards mycorrhiza-mediated N uptake over direct root supplied N. Furthermore, two novel mycorrhizal-specific tomato ammonium transporters were also found to be regulated under low N conditions. A conceptual model is presented integrating the transcriptome response to low N and highlighting the mycorrhizal-specific ammonium transporters. These results enhance our understanding of the role of the AM symbiosis in sensing and response to an enriched N patch, and demonstrate that transcriptome analyses of complex plant-microbe-soil interactions provide a global snapshot of biological processes relevant to soil processes in organic agriculture.
