AbstractHumic acids (HAs) stimulate the growth of several plant species by regulating their hormonal and redox metabolisms. Nevertheless, studies on the relationship of these substances with the plant-associated microbiota are almost nonexistent. Here, we hypothesized that the effect of HAs occurs in parallel with the regulation of the plant-associated bacterial community. Our results show the positive influence of HAs on the growth of rice and its stimulation of the root system. Metataxonomics revealed that the structure and composition of root bacterial communities were affected upon the application of HAs. Chitinophaga and Mucilaginibacter were the predominant genera in HA-treated roots. These bacteria produce enzymes that degrade compounds like those present in the wall of fungi, oomycetes, and nematode eggs. Pseudomonas and the Gp 1 group of Acidobacteria, both siderophore-producers and plant-growth promoters were also enriched, although with lower abundances. Given these results, we suggest that plants recruit these microorganisms in response to the stress caused by the HA-root interaction. For the first time, our findings indicate that HA-stimulated plants adopt the ecological strategy of recruiting members of the bacterial community that are candidates for the suppression of pathogens and, therefore, involved in plant defense.

In order to study the effect of phosphogypsum and humic acids in the kinetic release of salt from salt-affected soil, a laboratory experiment was conducted in which columns made from solid polyethylene were 60.0 cm high and 7.1 cm in diameter. The columns were filled with soil so that the depth of the soil was 30 cm inside the column, the experiment included two factors, the first factor was phosphogypsum and was added at levels 0, 5, 10 and 15 tons ha-1 and the second-factor humic acids were added at levels 0, 50, 100 and 150 kg ha-1 by mixing them with the first 5 cm of column soil and one repeater per treatment. The continuous leaching method was used by using an electrolytic well water 2.72 dS m-1. Collect the leachate daily and continue the leaching process until the arrival of the electrical conductivity of the filtration of leaching up to 3-5 dS m-1. The electrical conductivity and the concentration of positive dissolved ions (Ca, Mg, Na) were estimated in leachate and the sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) was calculated. The results showed that the best equation for describing release kinetics of the salts and sodium adsorption ratio in soil over time is the diffusion equation. Increasing the level of addition of phosphogypsum and humic acids increased the constant release velocity (K) of salts and the sodium adsorption ratio. The interaction between phosphogypsum and humic acids was also affected by the constant release velocity of salts and the sodium adsorption ratio. The constant release velocity (K) of the salts and the sodium adsorption ratio at any level of addition of phosphogypsum increased with the addition of humic acids. The highest salts release rate was 216.57 in PG3HA3, while the lowest rate was 149.48 in PG0HA0. The highest release rate of sodium adsorption ratio was 206.09 in PG3HA3, while the lowest rate was 117.23 in PG0HA0.

The aim of this study is to determine the Cu(II) complexing capacity and stability constants of Cu(II) complexes of humic acids isolated from two well-characterized raised bog peat profiles in respect to the basic properties and humification characteristics of the studied peats and their humic acids. The complex stability constants significantly change within the studied bog profiles and are well correlated with the age and decomposition degree of the peat layer from which the humic acids have been isolated. Among factors that influence this complexation process, molecular mass and ability to form micellar structures (supramolecules) of humic substances are of key importance.
