“…Biocides may affect plants directly by phytotoxicity of chemical compounds (Katan & Eshel, 1973), and a previous study showed that biocides have different effects on seed germination and seedling emergence (Allen, Askew, & Schreiber, 1961). Captan can inhibit root growth or damage root tissue by the phytotoxicity of chemical compounds (Allen et al, 1961). Moreover, captan has a negative effect on bacteria, fungi, and enzymes and therefore has an indirect effect on seedling emergence.…”

Seedling emergence is a critical stage in the establishment of desert plants. Soil microbes participate in plant growth and development, but information is lacking with regard to the role of microbes on seedling emergence. We applied the biocides (captan and streptomycin) to assess how seed mucilage interacts with soil microbial community and physiochemical processes to affect seedling emergence of Artemisia sphaerocephala on the desert sand dune. Fungal and bacterial community composition and diversity and fungal-bacterial interactions were changed by both captan and streptomycin. Mucilage increased soil enzyme activities and fungal-bacterial interactions. Highest seedling emergence occurred under streptomycin and mucilage treatment. Members of the phyla Firmicutes and Glomeromycota were the keystone species that improved A. sphaerocephala seedling emergence, by increasing resistance of young seedlings to drought and pathogen. Seed mucilage directly improved seedling emergence and indirectly interacted with the soil microbial community through strengthening fungal-bacterial interactions and providing favourable environment for soil enzymes to affect seedling emergence. Our study provides a comprehensive understanding of the regulatory mechanisms by which soil microbial community and seed mucilage interactively promote successful establishment of populations of desert plants on the barren and stressful sand dune.

“…However, available data indicate * that dissolved BTEX concentrations in the groundwater beneath the forested aiea are not high enough to adversely affect the forest vegetation. For example, the vegetative "lowest effect level" for xylenes in solution is reported to be 100 mg/L (Allen et al, 1961). The lowest effect level for toluene in soil is 200 mg/kg (Overcash et al, 1982 adequate and sufficient to provide long-term protection.…”
