  • This research reports the effects of shifting cultivation on soil environment collecting samples from 0-5 cm soil depth from five locations viz. at Burburichhara, Maichchari, Longadu, Sukurchhari and Muralipara in Rangamati district of Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHTs). Soil analyses showed that fungal and bacterial population, microbial respiration and active microbial biomass, maximum water holding capacity, conductivity and moisture contents were significantly (at least $p{\leq}0.05$) lower in shifting cultivated soil compared to adjacent mixed tree plantations at all the sites. On an average in soils of 5 different shifting cultivated lands fungal population was $1.33{\times}10^5$ CFU/g dry soil and bacterial population $1.80{\times}10^7$ CFU/g dry soil and in mixed plantations fungal population was $1.70{\times}10^5$ and bacterial population $2.51{\times}10^7$ CFU/g dry soil. Organic matter and exchangeable Ca and Mg contents were significantly (at least $p{\leq}0.05$) lower and bulk density significantly (at least $p{\leq}0.05$) higher in shifting cultivated land in most of the locations compared to adjacent mixed tree plantations. Ratios of microbial respiration and organic carbon as well as active microbial biomass and organic carbon were distinctly lower and pH higher at 3 locations in shifting cultivated soils compared to mixed plantations. Findings of various soil properties, therefore, suggest that shifting cultivation has deteriorating effects on soil environment.

  • There are very few studies about soil chemical and biological properties under tropical dry evergreen forest Coromandel Coast, India. The present study was conducted in six tropical dry evergreen forests sites such as Oorani, Puthupet, Vadaagram, Kotthatai, Sendrakillai and Palvathunnan. We measured the quantity of soil chemical, biological properties and selected soil microorganisms for investigating the impacts of soil microbial populations on soil chemical and biological properties. The result showed that total N, P, Ca, S, Fe, Mn, Cu, Co, exchangeable K, Olson P, extractable Ca and phosphobacterial population were higher in the soil from Kothattai forest site. Organic carbon, total Mg, extractable Na, soil respiration, ${\beta}$-glucosidase activity, bacterial population, fungi population and actinomycetes population were higher in the soil from Palvathunn forest site. Total K, $NH_4{^+}$-N, $NO_3{^-}$-N, exchangeable K, extractable Ca, extractable Na, azotobacter population, bacillus population and rhizobacteria population were higher in the soil from Sendrakillai. Beijerinckia population, rhizobacteria and soluble sodium were higher in Puthupet forest soil. Total Si, total Na and exchangeable K were higher in soil from Oorani forest site. Total Mo and exchangeable K were higher in the soil from Vadaagaram forest site. The results showed that organic carbon, total N, $NH_4{^+}$-N, $NO_3{^-}$-N, extractable P, extractable Ca, soil respiration and ${\beta}$-glucosidase were significantly correlated with soil microbial populations. Therefore soil microorganisms are important factor for maintaining soil quality in tropical dry evergreen forest.

  • Butyrate is known to play a significant role in energy metabolism and regulating genomic activities that influence rumen nutrition utilization and function. Thus, this study investigated the effects of an isolated butyrate-producing bacteria, Clostridium saccharobutylicum, in rumen butyrate production, fermentation parameters and microbial population in Holstein-Friesian cow. An isolated butyrate-producing bacterium from the ruminal fluid of a Holstein-Friesian cow was identified and characterized as Clostridium saccharobutylicum RNAL841125 using 16S rRNA gene sequencing and phylogenetic analyses. The bacterium was evaluated on its effects as supplement on in vitro rumen fermentation and microbial population. Supplementation with $10^6CFU/ml$ Clostridium saccharobutylicum increased (p < 0.05) microbial crude protein, butyrate and total volatile fatty acids concentration but had no significant effect on $NH_3-N$ at 24 h incubation. Butyrate and total VFA concentrations were higher (p < 0.05) in supplementation with $10^6CFU/ml$ Clostridium saccharobutylicum compared with control, with no differences observed for total gas production, $NH_3-N$ and propionate concentration. However, as the inclusion rate (CFU/ml) of C. saccharobutylicum was increased, reduction of rumen fermentation values was observed. Furthermore, butyrate-producing bacteria and Fibrobacter succinogenes population in the rumen increased in response with supplementation of C. saccharobutylicum, while no differences in the population in total bacteria, protozoa and fungi were observed among treatments. Overall, our study suggests that supplementation with $10^6CFU/ml$ C. saccharobutylicum has the potential to improve ruminal fermentation through increased concentrations of butyrate and total volatile fatty acid, and enhanced population of butyrate-producing bacteria and cellulolytic bacteria F. succinogenes.

  • 미생물제 비료시용이 배추의 생육과 토양의 화학성 변화 및 미생물상에 미치는 영향을 포장시험으로 실시하였다. 대조구에 비하여 TLB미생물제 비료를 시용함으로써 배추의 생육은 양호하였으며, 배추수량에 있어서도 유의성 있는 증수 효과를 보였다. 그러나 TLB미생물제 비료를 시용하더라도 배추생육시 요소비료의 추비량 및 퇴비 시용량을 줄일 경우에는 대조구에 비하여 수량이 다소 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 토양의 화학적 성질에 미치는 TLB 미생물제 비료 시용의 효과는 대조구에 비하여 수확기의 토양유기물 함량의 감소가 가장 큰 것으로 나타났고, 토양중 전질소 함량은 0.76~1.44% 범위로 대조구보다 오히려 미생물제 비료 시용구가 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 토양중 유효인산 함량은 시험전 토양의 559ppm에 비하여 배추의 수확기에 대조구 755ppm 그리고 미생물제 시용구 653ppm으로 대조구와 비교하여 미생물제 시용으로 인하여 다소 낮은 편이었다. 한편 배추 수확 후 배추의 화학적 성분은 전 질소 2.62~2.94%, 인산 1.48~1.55%, 칼리 3.60~4.38%범위이었으며, 각 처리간에 함량의 뚜렷한 차이는 없었다. 토양 미생물상중 전세균수는 대조구보다 미생물제 시용으로 다소 감소하였으나, 배추수확기 토양에서 Pseudomonas속이 3배 이상 높은 군락을 보였다. 그러나 방선균은 큰 차이를 보이지 않았지만, 사상균수는 수확기 토양에서 미생물제 비료 시용으로 현저히 높은 군락을 형성하였다.

  • 폐기물매립장의 안정화에는 미생물이 중요한 역할을 수행한다. 폐기물매립장에서 미생물군집 변화 모니터링에 말단 제한절편다형성(Terminal Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism; T-RFLP)법의 활용 가능성을 평가하고자 박테리아의 16S rDNA 서열에 기초한 T-RFLP법으로 4개의 폐기물매립장 내부에서 채취한 침출수의 미생물군집 구조를 조사하였다. T-RFLP법을 사용하여 해석한 침출수 내 우점 미생물군집 구조와 일반적으로 널리 사용되고 있는 16S rDNA 클론 해석법에 의한 우점 미생물군집구조는 유사하였다. 또한, T-RFLP법을 이용하여 폐기물매립장의 구조, 매립 폐기물 종류, 운영기간이 다른 폐기물매립장 침출수의 우점 미생물군집 구조가 서로 다르게 나타나는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 따라서 T-RFLP법을 사용하여 폐기물매립장 침출수내 미생물군집 구조를 장기적으로 모니터링 한다면 많은 비용과 시간이 소요되는 클론해석법의 반복적인 수행 없이도 비교적 간단하게 폐기물매립장의 안정화 정도를 평가할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

  • The hyphal growth and biocontrol efficacy of Trichodemo harzianum in soil may depend on its interactions with biotic components of the soil environment. The effect of soil microbial biomass on growth and biocontrol efficacy of T. hanianum isolate ThzIDl-M3 (green fluorescent protein transformant) was investigated using artificially prepared different levels of soil microbial biomass (153,328, or 517ug biomass carbon per g of dry soil; BC). The hyphal growth of T. harzanum was significantly inhibited in the soil with 328 or 517 $\mu$g BC compared with 153 ug BC. When ThzIDl-M3 was added to the soils as an alginate pellet formulation, the recoverable population of ThzIDl-M3 varied, but the highest population occurred in 517ug BC. Addition of alginate pellets of ThzIDl-M3 to the soils (10 per 50 g) resulted in increased indigenous microbial populations (total fungi, bacterial fluorescent Pseudomonas app., and actinomycetes). Furthermore, colonizing ability of ThzIDl-M3 on sclerotia of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum was significantly reduced in the soil with high revel of BC. These results suggest that increased soil microbial biomass contributes to increased interactions between introduced T. harzianum and soil microorganisms, consequently reducing the biocontrol efficacy of 1T. harzianum.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the effects of different sanitizers and contact times on storage quality and microbial growth in fresh-cut broccoli. Fresh broccoli samples were cut into small pieces, washed each for 90 s and 180 s in normal tap water (TW), $100\;{\mu}/l$ chlorinated water (CL, pH 7), electrolyzed water (EW, pH 7.2) containing $100\;{\mu}/l$ free chlorine, or $2\;{\mu}/l$ ozonated water ($O_3$). Then, samples were packaged in 30-${\mu}m$ polyethylene bags and stored at $5^{\circ}C$ for 9 days. No significant differences were observed in gas composition and color parameters ($L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$, and hue angle) among different sanitizers with contact times. No off-odor was detected during the storage. A longer contact time was not effective in reducing microbial population, except with $O_3$ washing. $O_3$ with 90 s was not much effective in reducing microbial population compared with Cl or EW. However, samples washed with $O_3$ for 180 s observed the lowest numbers of total aerobic and coliform plate counts. The result suggested that, a longer contact time of ozone can be used as a potential sanitizer to maintain the microbial quality and safety of fresh-cut broccoli.
