Comparative assessment of soil microbial dynamics under two different plantation of Bilaspur(C.G.) in tropical ecosystem, India
Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 9
Abstract
A present study was conducted to assess the microbial dynamics under two different multipurpose tree species plantations of Eucalyptus tereticornis and Pogamia pinnata in Bilaspur. The soil microbial dynamics can change productivity of plantation therefore ,changes in soil act as indicator for the microbial status of plantation productivity and management in tropical ecosystem. It was found that some of the soil properties and biological properties were significantly different (p<0.05). The soil organic carbon, available nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium including microbial population were comparatively higher in Pogamia pinnata plantation than the Eucalyptus tereticornis plantation . However, some of the micronutrients were higher in Eucalyptus tereticornis plantation. Microbial population i.e. both bacteria and fungi showed positive significant correlation with soil pH (p<0.05,0.001), phosphorus (p<0.01,0.001) and nitrogen (p<0.05, 0.01, 0.001) in both the plantations. Among the tree species Pogamia pinnata was found better for soil amelioration and the restoration of land.
