bacterial diversity under different soil tillage practices
Year: 2024
Type: dataset
Abstract: This study examines the effects of fertilizer amendment type and tillage practice on soil chemical properties and bacterial community, as biological indicators of soil fertility, with the aim of conserving this biological system in agro-ecosystem production contexts. In the experiment, conventional tillage (CT) was compared with three (3) minimum tillage (MT) methods. Metagenomic analysis was performed to determine the bacterial community composition at the phylum level. The treatments had the greatest impacts on phosphorus (P) dynamics, while other mineral elements remained relatively stable due to differences in nutrient availability mechanisms. The results revealed similarities between different treatments, particularly between minimum tillage (MT) with the same mineral (M) input as well as between treatments using organic (O) inputs, while CT with mineral input appeared to be the most distinct
