“…Similar results were obtained in this study; compared with drip irrigation, both MNBA and SAALA improved the dry matter accumulation and yield of tomato plants as well as the flavour, nutrition and shape of the tomato fruits. Other studies have also shown that MNBA increases IWUE, crop yield and quality [43,44]. In the present study, compared with the CK, MNBA improved dry matter accumulation (Table 2), and MNBA increased IWUE and the soluble protein content in both spring and autumn (Tables 3 and 5).…”

Soil aeration and plastic film mulching have been reported to accelerate plant growth and increase fruit yield by improving the rhizosphere soil–air environment. The aim of this study was to investigate plant growth, fruit yield, irrigation water-use efficiency (IWUE) and fruit quality in response to a micro/nano-bubble aeration (MNBA) system and a subsurface artificial air layer aeration system (SAALA) under different treatments. The results indicated that both MNBA and SAALA positively influenced the plant dry weight, fruit yield, IWUE and fruit quality. In comparison with the no aeration treatment, the MNBA treatment increased the dry matter accumulation, fruit yield, IWUE, lycopene content and soluble protein content by 7.1%, 9.0%, 7.1%, 6.2% and 16.2%, respectively. Plastic film mulching (PFM) significantly improved the total dry weight, fruit yield and IWUE during both seasons. The increased yield in response to soil aeration during autumn was significantly greater than that during spring, and the yield increase in response to PFM was significantly greater in spring than in autumn. Moreover, the nutrition indices in response to both soil aeration and PFM were more significant during spring than autumn. Taking into account costs, efficiency and benefits, the optimal treatment was the MNBA and full (F) PFM combination.

“…In this study, N input generally increased the microbial biomass; we observed significant positive correlations between microbial biomass and soil total N, NO 3 -N, and MBC (Table 2). Therefore, soil salinization and nutrient limitations in the YRD coastal wetlands may be alleviated by N input, which influences the soil microbial population, composition, and community structure (Zhou et al, 2020).…”

“…Microbial communities play an important role in supporting ecosystem stability and function [7]. In agricultural ecosystems, soil microbial communities drive the biogeochemical cycles of critical elements and maintain soil productivity [8], and the relationships between soil microbial communities and crop growth and health have been extensively documented [9,10]. Microbial diversity in agricultural soils varies with environmental gradients and nutrient availability [11,12], while differences in crop species' nutrient uptake and environmental stress adaptations also lead to heterogeneity in bacterial growth and abundance [13].…”

The global demand for cotton makes sustainable cotton production an important issue that can be improved by a better understanding of the influence of soil microbes on cotton growth. We collected cotton field soils at the seedling and flowering/boll-setting (FBS) stages in order to obtain soil properties and cotton growth indices. Bacterial and fungal community compositions were assessed by high-throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA and internal transcribed spacer genes, respectively, after which the differences in microbial functions and their influencing factors at different growth stages were analyzed. Both the diversity and composition of soil bacterial and fungal communities were found to be significantly different between the seedling and FBS stages. Microbes in the seedling stage had significantly higher richness and biomass than those in the FBS stage. Compared with the seedling stage, the stability of the soil bacterial communities was decreased. The cotton growth indices at both the seedling and FBS stages were associated with compositional shifts in the bacterial community and but not the fungal community. The abundance of specific soil microbial taxa (e.g., Pseudarthrobacter, Thiobacillus, Cephalotrichum, Chaetomium, and Fusarium) were correlated with cotton growth indices at the seedling stage, being mainly regulated by soil salinity and nitrate content. Our results highlight the importance of soil microbial communities in mediating cotton growth and will be useful in providing better strategies for the improvement of cotton agriculture.
