Légumineuses et prairies temporaires : des fournitures d'azote pour les rotations
2015
Intervention présentée aux Journées de l'AFPF, "La fertilité des sols dans les systèmes fourragers", les 8 et 9 avril 2015; Les atouts des légumineuses (fixation symbiotique, diversité fonctionnelle...) leur permettent de contribuer à la fertilité des sols, à l'amélioration de la durabilité de l'agriculture et de l'autonomie protéique des systèmes alimentaires. Il convient donc de mieux connaître leurs rôles, directs et indirects, dans les flux d'azote des rotations.Les légumineuses fourragères (en culture pure ou dans des couverts multispécifiques) représentent une grande part des apports azotés symbiotiques. Il existe une grande diversité d'implication des légumineuses dans les rotations.…
Effects of precipitation regime on soil bacterial and fungal activity upon rewetting of a plant-soil system using 18O-SIP: depth matters
2017
EASPEBIOmEDOCT INRA; Climate change is predicted to affect not only the amount but also the temporal distribution of rain. Changes in frequency and amplitude of rain events, likely shape the activity of plants and soil microbes. Fluctuating water conditions will differ with soil depth between precipitation patterns, affecting plant growth and may result in differential microbial response upon rewetting. Our objective was to investigate, in plant-soil systems, the response of the metabolically active microbial communities to a rewetting event and to which extent this was modulated by 1) soil depth and 2) precipitation legacy. Wheat planted in soil mesocosms were subjected to frequent or infr…
Distribution and determinism of abundance, diversity and structure of microbial communities at different spatial scales to support agricultural devel…
2018
Les propriétés des sols déterminent notre capacité à produire des biens et des services en quantité et en qualité. Dans ce contexte, la composante microbienne des sols occupe une place prépondérante de part son abondance et son extrême diversité : on estime qu’un gramme de sol contient 109 bactéries et 105 champignons, pour environ 106 espèces bactériennes et 103 à 104 espèces de champignons. Cette diversité taxonomique des microorganismes du sol supporte une extraordinaire diversité fonctionnelle qui leur confère un rôle déterminant dans le fonctionnement du sol tant qualitativement (cycles biogéochimiques, structure du sol ; dégradation des composés exogènes, régulation biologique) que qu…
Les sols au cœur de la zone critique 6
2018
Philippe Lemanceau est directeur de recherche à l’INRA où il dirige l’UMR Agroécologie. Il est microbiologiste du sol et spécialiste de la biodiversité des sols et des interactions plantes/micro-organismes.Manuel Blouin est professeur en écologie à AgroSup Dijon et membre de l’UMR Agroécologie. Ses recherches concernent l’effet des organismes du sol sur la croissance, le développement et la santé des plantes.; International audience; Les sols sont des milieux où évolue une myriade d’organismes différents, déterminant une série de fonctions, qui se traduisent en services écosystémiques essentiels pour l’humanité. Mieux connaitre ces organismes, leur biodiversité, leurs interactions, ainsi qu…
Weed suppression in cover crop mixtures under contrasted levels of resource availability
2022
Cover crop (CC) mixtures appear as a promising agroecological tool for weed management.Although CC supress weed growth by competing for resources, their suppressive effect undercontrasting levels of soil resource availability remains poorly documented. A two field: yearexperiment was conducted to investigate the weed suppressive effect of four CC mixtures.They were composed of 2 or 8 species including or not legume species and compared to abare soil control. The experiment included two levels of irrigation and nitrogen fertilisation atCC sowing. The objectives were to assess (i) weed and CC aboveground biomass response toCC mixtures and resource availability, (ii) the weed suppressive effec…
Lien entre la diversité microbienne, la stabilité des communautés microbiennes et le turnover des matières organiques du sol
2014
Soil microbial communities act as important agents of the biological soil functioning, particularly through their involvements in the transformations of biogeochemical cycles (C, N, P…). In agro-ecosystems, the diversity of these communities is affected by perturbations associated to agricultural practices, and the significance of these modifications in terms of preservation of biological functioning and sustainability of agricultural systems has emerged as a central issue in the environmental sciences. Whereas the role of biodiversity has been well studied for macroorganisms, in particular for plants; the biodiversity/activity relationship is still largely unknown for soil microorganisms. …
Monitoring microbial diversity in European soils: ongoing projects and challenges
2012
SPEEcolDurGenoSolCT3communication orale invitée, résumé et slides; According to the Convention of Biological Diversity (Rio de Janeiro, 1992), biodiversity is the variation in life from genes to species, communities, ecosystems, and landscapes. Soils represent a huge reservoir of biodiversity which varies in terms of taxonomic richness, relative abundance and distribution according to soil types, climatic conditions, vegetation and land uses. The key functions supporting ecosystem services as identified in the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MEA, 2005) largely depend upon organisms that inhabit the soil. Thus, the design and implementation of a sustainable soil management strategy requires…
Impact of fertilization and direct seeding on activity and abundance of key denitrifier communities in a tropical soil

Affiche, résumé; The aim of this work was to investigate to which extent different practices impacted on the bacterial communities involved in N2O emission.
Soil weed seedbank composition and structure in a long-term nutrient management experiment
2016
EAGESTAD; Weed communities can be influenced by nutrient availability, nutrient form (e.g. ammonium vs. nitrate), amendment timing, amendment type, and by immigration of seeds during amendment applications. New York ranks third in the United States in the number of dairy cows and thus dairy manure applications are prevalent throughout the state. The objective of this work was to compare the effect of dairy manure and inorganic fertilizer on soil weed seedbank composition and structure in a long-term nutrient management experiment. The field experiment was initiated in 2001 at the Cornell Musgrave Research Farm in Aurora, NY and compared ten treatments in a corn-alfalfa rotation using a rand…
