The formation of soil inorganic carbon in saline–alkali lands is great significance for enhancing sequestration. As the mechanisms, addition to discovered abiotic microbial mechanisms remain unclear. To address this, microbes were isolated from farmland Yellow River Delta north China. Then, their capacity carbonate precipitation was determined. Ten strains obtained soil. Of these, seven (four b...

Saline conditions govern soil behavior during evaporation, thereby affecting the water budget in semi-arid regions. This research examined effects of saline pore fluid on evaporation. The results indicated volumetric reductions about 5% for silty sand and 15% lean clay. evaporative flux decreased from 26 mg/m2∙s to 22 StageII, remained at a constant StageIII, 13 StageIV. air entry residual suct...

Osmotolerance is one of the critical factors for successful survival and colonization of microbes in saline environments. Nonetheless, information about these osmotolerance mechanisms is still inadequate. Exploration of the saline soil microbiome for its community structure and novel genetic elements is likely to provide information on the mechanisms involved in osmoadaptation. The present stud...

Brackish water lake is the most extraordinary reservoir for bacterial community with an adaptability of tolerance to saline stress. In the present study, metagenomic approach was implemented utilising 454-pyrosequencing platform to gain deeper insights into the bacterial diversity profile of the soil sediment of Chilika Lake, Odisha, India. Metagenome contained 68,150 sequences with 31,896,430 ...

Salinization is an important and increasingly prevalent issue which has broad and profound effects on plant survival and distribution pattern. To understand the patterns and potential drivers of leaf traits in saline environments, we determined the soil properties, leaf morphological traits (specific leaf area, SLA, and leaf dry matter content, LDMC), leaf chemical traits (leaf carbon, C, nitro...

Osmolytes, PGPR, Proline, Reducing Sugars, Total soluble sugars, Rhizobacteria ABSTRACT Free living rhizospheric bacteria from wheat rhizosphere have capability to produced plant growth promoting attributes under saline condition. The electrical conductivity (ECe) of saline soil samples from four different districts viz. Varanasi, Mau, Ballia and Ghazipur of Uttar PradeshIndia was 10.47 to 5.69...
