TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assessed the concentrations of antibiotics, ARGs and their vertical distribution in paddy soil receiving long-term manure applications in four field experiments and found that longterm manure amendments generally increased the antibiotic concentrations and ARGs abundances in the paddy soils over decades.

TL;DR: In this paper, a long-term field experiment of paddy soil was developed from barren land in 1990 to understand the development of infertile paddy soils in subtropical China, and the authors analyzed rice yields, soil organic C (SOC) and total N were analyzed.

TL;DR: In this article, changes in nitrogen transformation, soil microbial biomass, and microbial functional diversity with the nitrogen gradients were investigated to evaluate the response of microbial activity to chemical fertilizer nutrient patches, which may impact soil microbial activity.

TL;DR: In this paper, the composition and functional diversity of the microbial community within different aggregate size fractions of a paddy soil fertilized with organic manure (OM) or/and mineral NPK fertilizer (NPK/NPKO) for 20 years, along with a control (no fertilizer, NoF).

TL;DR: The soil HAs and FAs were found to show inhibition activities against phytopathogenic fungi for the first time and continuous cultivation too many years in PGVP systems is believed to be inadvisable.
