Micro-nano aeration oxygenation and column P gradient variations enhance the soil microbial environment, thereby increasing corn yield
Abstract
In field cultivation, crop yields are frequently limited by soil compaction and low fertilizer use efficiency. Regulating the rhizosphere microbial community structure of crops may represent an effective mitigation strategy. This study investigated the effects of micro-nano aeration oxygenation (WP) and Column P gradient levels on the microbial environment of maize rhizosphere soil and their impact on maize yield. Results demonstrate that WP significantly increased maize yield and biomass: under the medium Column P gradient (PM), the yield in the WP treatment increased from 1104.93 kg/hm² to 1387.04 kg/hm² compared to the control treatment (CP), representing a 25.56% increase (p
