Soil enzymes can be sensitive indicators of C changes in forest soils produced by global warming. This study assessed the response to temperature of soil enzymes in forest soils from the fragile cold ecosystems of Western Patagonia (Chile), to be used as indicators of the biological C emissions from the soil under climate change for this Region. Soil from two sites of Nothofagus forest were sampled (0-5 cm), and soil C mineralization (21 days of soil incubation) and the enzyme activities of N…

Significance of the Enzymes Associated with Soil C and N Transformation

This chapter presents a brief overview of earlier and recent findings dealing with the most important soil enzymes involved in the soil C and N cycle, such as cellulase, β-glucosidase, urease, invertase, laccase, peroxidases, proteases, and nitrate reductase.

Role of Soil Microbiota Enzymes in Soil Health and Activity Changes Depending on Climate Change and the Type of Soil Ecosystem

This review aims to highlight the main groups of microbial enzymes found in soil, their role in the global nutrient cycles of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfur, carbon sequestration, and the influence of intensive agriculture on microbial enzymatic activity, and the variations in enzyme activity across different climate zones and soil ecosystems.

Response of Soil Dehydrogenase Activity to Salinity and Cadmium Species

Greater understanding of the microbial activity role in metal mobilization processes in soil is of major importance. The objective was to study the effect of major Cd species in solution of a saline…

Different temperature sensitivity and kinetics of soil enzymes indicate seasonal shifts in C, N and P nutrient stoichiometry in acid forest soil

Acid forest soils in the Bohemian Forest in Central Europe are biogeochemically imbalanced in organic C, N and P processing. We hypothesized that these imbalances can be due to different temperature…

Enzymes in the rhizosphere of plants growing in the vicinity of the Polish Arctowski Antarctic Station

Temperature changes in rhizospheric soils could lead to changes in substrate degradation rates and consequently in the availability of nutrients (C, N and P) for C. quitensis and D. antarctica in maritime Antarctica.

Activation Energy of Extracellular Enzymes in Soils from Different Biomes

The Ea in the arctic and subarctic zones for peroxidase was lower than the hydrolases and phenol oxidase values, indicating per oxidase may be a rate limited enzyme in environments under warming conditions.
