“…The percentage contribution of this factor in the formation of activity of dehydrogenases and phosphatases in soil contaminated with petrol was definitely the highest ( Table 4 ). Previous research also demonstrated the time-variable effect of various additives modifying the enzymatic activity of soil contaminated with petroleum derivatives [ 8 , 14 , 15 , 19 , 46 , 55 ].…”

AbstractThe objective of the study was to compare the effect of calcium peroxide and citric acid on the activity of acid phosphatase (ACP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and dehydrogenases (DHA) in uncontaminated soil and soil contaminated with petrol. The experiment was carried out on samples of loamy sand under laboratory conditions. Petrol was introduced to soil samples at a dose of 0 and 50 g·kg 1 DM, as well as calcium peroxide or citric acid at a dose of 0, 50, 100, or 150 mg·kg 1 DM. The humidity of the samples was brought to 60% maximum water holding capacity, and the samples were incubated at 20°C for 8 weeks. Enzyme activity was determined on days 1, 14, 28, and 56. The obtained results demonstrated that the addition of calcium peroxide and citric acid did not result in significant changes in the activity of the determined enzymes in uncontaminated soil. However, it was observed that the application of calcium peroxide, particularly at the dose of 150 mg·kg 1 DM, largely alleviated the impact of petrol on the enzymatic activity of the soil contaminated with petrol. Moreover, among the determined enzymes, the activity of DHA was found to be the best indicator of the effect of calcium peroxide on the soil ecosystem.

“…Oxidoreductases are a class of enzymes that CAT the transfer of electrons from donor to acceptor. The acceptor can be an organic and inorganic compound, or oxygen ( Strek & Telesinski, 2017 ). The DEH activity is an indicator of the intensity of the respiratory metabolism of all soil microorganism populations, and is used to determine the total microbial activity of the soil ( Furtak & Gajda, 2017 ; Lemanowicz et al., 2020a ; Lemanowicz et al., 2020b ).…”

The physical and chemical properties of the soil are important factors influencing the yield of crops. One of the agrotechnical factors influencing the biochemical properties of soil is sowing density. It affects the yield components, light, moisture and thermal conditions in the canopy and the pressure of pests. Secondary metabolites, many of which are known to act as a defense mechanism against insects, are of importance in the interaction between the crop and abiotic and biotic factors of the habitat. To the best of our knowledge, the studies conducted so far do not sufficiently reveal the impacts of the wheat species and the sowing density, together with the biochemical properties of the soil, on the accumulation of bioactive ingredients in the crop plants, and the subsequent impacts on the occurrence of phytophagic entomofauna in various management systems. Explaining these processes creates an opportunity for more sustainable development of agriculture. The study aimed to determine the effect of wheat species and sowing density on the biochemical properties of the soil, concentrations of biologically active compounds in the plant and the occurrence of insect pests in organic (OPS) and conventional (CPS) production systems. The research was conducted on spring wheat species (Indian dwarf wheat—Triticum sphaerococcum Percival and Persian wheat—Triticum persicum Vavilov) grown in OPS and CPS at sowing densities 400, 500, 600 (seeds m−2). The following analyzes were performed: (i) soil analysis: the activity of catalases (CAT), dehydrogenases (DEH), peroxidases (PER); (ii) plant analysis: total phenolic compounds (TP), chlorogenic acid (CA), antioxidant capacity (FRAP); (iii) entomological analysis of the number of insects—Oulema spp. adults and larvae. Performing analyzes in such a wide (interdisciplinary) scope will allow for a comprehensive understanding of the soil-plant-insect biological transformation evaluation. Our results showed that an increase in soil enzyme activity caused a decrease in TP contents in the wheat grown the OPS. Despite this, both the content of TP and the anti-oxidative activity of the ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP) were higher in these wheats. Bioactive compound contents and FRAP were most favoured by the lowest sowing density. Regardless of the production system, the occurrence of the Oulema spp. adults on T. sphaerococcum was the lowest at a sowing density of 500 seeds m−2. The occurrence of this pest’s larvae was lowest at a sowing density of 400 seeds m−2. Research on bioactive compounds in plants, biochemical properties of soil and the occurrence of pests make it possible to comprehensively assess the impact of the sowing density of ancient wheat in the ecological and conventional production system, which is necessary for the development of environmentally sustainable agriculture.

This study used laboratory experiments to compare the effects of coal tar creosote on the activity of oxidoreductive enzymes in sandy loam, loamy sand and sandy clay loam soils. Different amounts of coal tar creosote were added to soil samples as follows: 0 (control), 2, 10 or 50 g kg–1 dry matter. The activity of soil dehydrogenases (DHAs), o-diphenol oxidase (o-DPO), catalase (CAT), nitrate reductase (NR) and peroxidases (POX) was determined. Contamination of soil with coal tar creosote affected oxidoreductase activity. Oxidoreductive enzyme activity following soil contamination with coal tar creosote was in the following order: DHAs > CAT > NR > POX > o-DPO in loamy sand and in sandy loam; and DHAs > POX > CAT > NR > o-DPO in sandy clay loam. The index of soil oxidoreductive activity (IOx) introduced in this study confirms the negative effect of coal tar creosote on oxidoreductase activity in soil. DHAs were the most sensitive to the contamination of soil with coal tar creosote. Moreover, the greatest changes in oxidoreductase activities were observed in loamy sand. Knowledge of the mechanism underlying the effects of coal tar creosote on oxidoreductive processes may enable development of a method for the bioremediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-contaminated soils.
