TL;DR: Results showed that across the seasons, treatment T6 increased the net photosynthesis rate, total biomass, grain yield, and amylose content by 23%, 90%, 95%, and 10%, respectively, compared with control, which provided a sustainable nutrient management strategy to improve crop yield with high nutrient use efficiency.

TL;DR: The integrated effect of poultry manure and cattle manure with CF on soil properties, plant physiology, and rice grain yield, and linear regression analysis showed that post-anthesis DM and N accumulation were highly associated with grain yield of rice, providing a sustainable nutrient management plan to increase rice yield.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that conservation tillage practices, i.e., no-tillage and straw retention, increase the SBC diversity and soil C/N ratio, thereby enhancing soil organic C and total N and changing soil microbial ecology.

TL;DR: The results suggested that an increment in starch accumulation and grain filling rate were mainly associated with the enhanced sink capacity by regulating key enzyme activities involved in Suc-to-starch conversion.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effects of cattle manure (CM) and poultry manure (PM) combined with chemical fertilizer (CF) on soil physical and biochemical properties, rice dry matter (DM) and nitrogen (N) accumulation and grain yield.
