Effets du mode de travail du sol sur les microorganismes à l'échelle du profil cultural
2009
Soil tillage modifies the location of crop residues and soil structure and affects microbial populations and activities such as mineralization of soil organic matter. The aim of this work was to compare the effect of two tillage systems (traditional mouldboard ploughing, LT, and reduced tillage, TR) on crop residues distribution and soil structure as well as their consequences on soil microbial biomass (BM), the potential activity of C mineralization (Cmin) and soil bacterial community structure (through T-RFLP). In order to study simultaneously the effects of soil structure modifications and crop residues distribution on these microbial parameters we used a stratified sampling scheme based…
Impact des invertébrés sur les fonctions des sols et leurs applications dans les systèmes sol-plante
2017
EABIOMEAGROSUP; De par leur structure tridimensionnelle, leur large gamme de porosité, la diversité de leurs caractéristiques physicochimiques et des conditions microclimatiques, les sols abritent un nombre considérable, parfois inestimable d'organismes. Au sein des agroécosystèmes, les enjeux sont de comprendre les relations entre la plante cultivée et son environnement biophysique incluant les interactions biologiques et les effets de la biodiversité des organismes des sols. L’impact de la faune du sol sur la production primaire peut être vu au travers de leur effet sur les fonctions de (i) recyclage des nutriments, (ii) entretien de la stabilité/structure du sol, (iii) contrôle des bioag…
Effect of cultivation techniques on the hydrodynamic and mechanical behaviour of the "Lauragais-terreforts"
1993
The effect of various seed bed preparations on hydrodynamic and mechanical parameters was studied experimentally by simulated rainfall on clayeyloamy soils Lauragais, which had developed on chalky molasse on a slope greater than 12 %. The level of soaked up rain ("pluie d'imbibition", Pi) is closely connected to the inital degree of saturation of the soil ; it varies from 10 to 24 mm when the soil is humid and increases when the soil is dry (14 to 47 mm). But when the soil surface is crusted the Pi is less and seems to be no longer controlled by the degree of water in the soil. Treatments with fine structural elements show the fewest possibilities of infiltration during the soaking up stage…
Comparison of different tillage systems in organic farming : effect of soil structure and organic matter repartition on soil micro-organisms and thei…
2009
Over the last decades, the surface traditionally ploughed has tended to decrease and replaced by shallow working tillage techniques without soil inversion, i.e., no tillage or reduced tillage with tines or discs. These techniques were mostly developed in conventional farming systems but nowadays they are also developed in organic farming systems. Nevertheless, these tillage techniques could generate crop nutrients deficiencies and a deterioration of soil structure, especially during the first years of their application. As the use of synthetic fertilizers is forbidden in organic farming, a decrease of the soil fertility could be very detrimental for crop growth. Indeed, soil micro-organisms…
Morphological characterisation of soil structure in tilled fields: from a diagnosis method to the modelling of structural changes over time
2004
Characterisation of soit structure within the tilled layer of cultivated fields is crucial because the importance of this soil characteristic on the biological, chemical and physical properties of the soil and its repercussions on water cycle, root growth and functioning. We present in this paper a method for field characterisation of soil structure. This method, practised since the 1970s, was designed for field diagnosis of the effects of cropping systems on soil structure. It is based on a stratification of the observation face of a pit dug perpendicular to the direction of tillage and traffic: spatial compartments are distinguished, according to the nature of the mechanical stresses they…
Contribution à la rédaction du chapitre « composantes physiques de la fertilité »
2006
International audience; L'agronomie a évolué au cours des trente dernières années, en élargissant ses échelles d'approche, en modernisant ses outils de travail et en renouvelant ses objets d'étude. S'appuyant sur une abondante bibliographie, l'ouvrage s'attache à montrer cette évolution en balayant l'ensemble du champ de connaissances que l'agronomie couvre aujourd'hui.
The mycorrhizal soil infectivity and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal spore communities in soils of different aged fallows in Senegal
2001
This work was carried out to determine the influence of the duration of fallow and of physico-chemical components of soils on the distribution of endomycorrhizal fungal spores and the mycorrhizal soil infectivity. The mycorrhization of indigenous plants from the fallows was examined and it was concluded that, except for Cassia obtusifolia, fungal colonization was poorly developed. No correlation was established between spore populations and duration of fallow or between grazed and fenced areas. The relationships between abundance of mycorrhizal spores and the physico-chemical characteristics of the soils were markedly variable among species of mycorrhizal fungi. The results did not provide …
