Abstract:The fundamental ecosystem processes in soil are regulated by microbial communities, and community diversity is implicated by soil environmental conditions. Humic acid (HA) improves soil quality and fertility, stimulating the microbial environment, but the detailed effects remain poorly understood. We investigated the effects of HA rates on soil bacterial diversity, particularly on species richness and community composition in the rhizosphere of corn (Zea mays). Inorganic fertilizer (T2), HA 0.5% (T3), HA 1.0% … Show more
