The effect of plant mycotrophy and soil disturbance on soil microbial activity

In cropping systems, the choices adopted for tillage system used and plants cultivated can strongly influence soil microbial population its functional profile. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are an important component of microbiome their mutualistic symbiosis with majority higher grant latter a wide range benefits. The extraradical mycelium developed by these expands volume influenced harbours diversity microbes establishing distinct environment complementary interactions. We assessed how growing different levels mycotrophy modifies biological activity profile in under Mn toxicity whether this is modified disturbance. Following mycotrophic plants, contained more active than after non-mycotrophic as expressed values basal respiration or dehydrogenase activity. Additionally, count phosphorus solubilizes phosphatase were greater plants. Even among profiles be distinguished legume grass. ERM disruption disturbance decreased most parameters studied P solubilizers significant way. These results indicate that even toxicity, associated AMF following growth presented had differential response towards stress imposed disturbance, when compared roots.
