Fresh and composted industrial sludge restore soil functions in surface soil of degraded agricultural land

Alexandre Buttler, Luca Bragazza, Muhammad Saleem Arif, Muhammad Riaz, Muhammad Ashraf

Environmental and taxonomic controls of carbon and oxygen stable isotope composition in Sphagnum across broad climatic and geographic ranges

Luca Bragazza, Mariusz Lamentowicz, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek

Rain-fed peatlands are dominated by peat mosses (Sphagnum sp.), which for their growth depend on nutrients, water and CO2 uptake from the atmosphere. As the isotopic composition of carbon (C-12(,)13) and oxygen (O-16(,)18) of these Sphagnum mosses are affe ...

Interaction of compost additives with phosphate solubilizing rhizobacteria improved maize production and soil biochemical properties under dryland agriculture

Alexandre Buttler, Luca Bragazza, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Muhammad Saleem Arif, Muhammad Riaz, Muhammad Ashraf

Dry land soils from the Indo-Gangetic plains are inherently poor in organic matter content and phosphorus (P). Amendment of these soils with P-enriched compost, together with P solubilizing rhizobacterial (PSR) inoculation has been suggested to improve pla ...

Nitrogen-enriched compost application combined with plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) improves seed quality and nutrient use efficiency of sunflower

Alexandre Buttler, Luca Bragazza, Muhammad Saleem Arif, Muhammad Riaz

Ecological benefits associated with plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) inoculants offer a promising integrated nutrient management option to counteract plant nitrogen (N) deficiency. We performed field experiments to evaluate the effect of integra ...

Impacts of regional climatic fluctuations on radial growth of Siberian and Scots pine at Mukhrino mire (central-western Siberia)

Luca Bragazza, Guillaume Blanchet, Baptiste Calliari

Ring width (TRW) chronologies from Siberian (Pinus sibirica) and Scots (Pinus sylvestris) pine trees were sampled at Mukhrino - a large mire complex in central-western Siberia - to evaluate the impacts of hydroclimatic variability on tree growth over the l ...

Taxonomic and functional turnover are decoupled in European peat bogs

Alexandre Buttler, Luca Bragazza, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek

In peatland ecosystems, plant communities mediate a globally significant carbon store. The effects of global environmental change on plant assemblages are expected to be a factor in determining how ecosystem functions such as carbon uptake will respond. Us ...

Response to Editor to the comment by Delarue (2016) to our paper entitled “Persistent high temperature and low precipitation reduce peat carbon accumulation”

Alexandre Buttler, Luca Bragazza, Constant Signarbieux, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Remy Jean Henry Albrecht

Responses of soil properties and crop yields to different inorganic and organic amendments in a Swiss conventional farming system

Konstantin Svetlozarov Gavazov, Luca Bragazza, Guillaume Blanchet

In agro-ecosystems, fertilization practices are crucial for sustaining crop productivity. Here, based on a 50-year long-term experiment, we studied the influence of fertilization practices (inorganic and/or organic) and nitrogen (N) application rates on (i ...

Associative interplay of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa QS40) with nitrogen fertilizers improves sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) productivity and fertility of aridisol

Alexandre Buttler, Luca Bragazza, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Muhammad Saleem Arif, Muhammad Riaz

The environmental and economic impacts of chemical fertilizer have encouraged farmers to integrate them with organic materials, an important nutrient management strategy for sustainable agriculture production. In the present study, we conducted field exper ...
