“…Additionally, the incorporation of crop residues favours cellulolytic microorganisms compared with those that cannot degrade cellulose (Debosz et al, 1999). The increase in microbial biomass, as indicated by an increase in esterase activity, was due to the addition of OM, as no such increase was found in the unamended control treatment (Kokalis-Burelle et al 1994). Similar results were reported when untreated OM or compost were applied to soil (Kandeler et al, 1999;Pérez-Piqueres et al, 2006).…”

The effects of compost and liquid biofertiliser on the chemical and biological characteristics of soil cultivated with banana (Musa spp. L.) cv. 'Grand Naine' were investigated. Four treatments (liquid bioferment (LBF), compost (COM), liquid bioferment + compost (LBF + COM) and unamended (CONTrOL)) were applied to banana plants in the field in a completely randomised design in the crop cycles of 2005-2006 and 2007-2008. The physico-chemical characteristics, enzymatic activity and microbial diversity were determined prior to the bioferment addition and 140 and 280 days after application (DAP). The microbial groups were determined (i.e., bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes). Next, cellulolytic, proteolytic, starch hydrolysing, asymbiotic N 2 -fixing and phosphorous-solubilising microorganisms were determined. The application of LBF + COM increased organic matter 1.39 times, increased compost 1.33 times and increased LBF 1.16 times at 140 DAP. The greatest microbial populations were found in soil amended with LBF + COM at 140 DAP. The highest esterase and invertase enzyme activities were found in soil amended with LBF+COM at 140 DAP. The highest xylanase activity was found in soil amended with compost at 280 DAP. These results showed that the addition of compost and liquid bioferment improves soil fertility and stimulates microbial activity and their capacity to metabolise complex organic molecules.

Evaluation of enzyme activities in combination with taxonomic analyses may help define the mechanisms involved in microbial decomposition of organic amendments and biological control of soilborne pathogens. In this study, powdered pine bark was added to nematode-infested soil at rates of 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50 g kg-1. Total fungal populations did not differ among treatments immediately after application of pine bark. After 7 days, fungal populations were positively correlated with increasing levels of pine bark. This increase was sustained through 14 and 21 days. PenicilIium chrysogenum and Paecilomvces variotii were the predominant fungal species isolated from soil amended with pine bark. Total bacterial populations did not change with addition of pine bark at 0, 7, and 14 days after treatment. At 21 and 63 days, total bacterial populations declined in soil receiving the highest rates of pine bark. Addition of pine bark powder to soil caused a shift in predominant bacterial genera from Bacillus spp. in nonamended soil, to Pseudomonas spp. in amended soil. Soil enzyme activities were positively correlated with pine bark rate at all sampling times. Trehalase activity was positively correlated with total fungal populations and with predominant fungal species, but was not related to bacterial populations. The number of non-parasitic (non-stylet bearing) nematodes and Meloidogyne arenaria in soil and roots were not correlated with pine bark rate. However, Heterodera glycines juveniles in roots, and the number of cysts g-1 root, declined with increasing levels of pine bark. Section editor: H Lambers

“…They (including juveniles and soils) were absolutely absent up till 70% dust addition treatments. The inhibitory effect of sawdust on nematodes can be attributed to the formation of phenolic compounds by the decomposition of sawdust (Kokalis-Burelle et al, 1994). For juveniles and galling, the concentration of some formed phenollic compounds of about 30% dust amendments could not have crossed the threshold limit so as Table 9.…”
