Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleScreening of Dominant Cellulose-Degrading Microbe in Humus and Optimisation of its Enzyme Producing Conditions and Application Optimization of Enzyme Production Conditions and Evaluation of Efficient Straw Degradation by Penicillium oxalicumGailing Wang, Chendi Li, Yanan Guo et al.The slow degradation of returned straw adversely affects seedling survival rate. To shorten the degradation time of lignin in maize straw in warm temperate regions, a cellulolytic microbial strain that can secrete polymer with high enzymatic activity was isolated from the humus, which helped to identify an effective strain to expedite the decomposition of returned maize straw. Using the molecular … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 2 · 23 May 2023 · 5,300 accessesView PDFCite

The study evaluated the effectiveness of a bio-formulation based on Phosphate-Solubilising Bacteria (PSB) in combination with mineral fertiliser (N60P90 + N30) in enhancing the productivity of forage crops and improving … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2026 · 385 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImpact of Organic Ameliorants on Grey Soil FertilityAsanbay Tagaev, Amandyk Kostakov, Sabir MakhmadzhanovThe study aimed to assess the effectiveness of organic-biological ameliorants for restoring the fertility of light grey soils in the Turkestan region of Kazakhstan, which are characterised by low humus content (0.8-1.1%) and high alkalinity (pH 7.9-8.3). The field experiment was conducted on an area of 2304 m2 using four treatment options: control (variant 1 only mineral fertilisers) and three … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 15 Sep 2026 · 693 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonitoring of Vegetation Degradation in various Landscapes of the Moyinkum Desert, KazakhstanOmirzhan Taukebayev, Bektemir Osmonali, Salavat Duisenbayev et al.This study is devoted to assessing the degree of vegetation degradation in various landscapes of the Moyinkum Desert, taking into account the taxonomic diversity of flora, the structure of phytocenoses, and the agrochemical condition of soils. The aim of the work was to identify areas with signs of disturbance and to analyse the factors determining degradation processes. It was established … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 17 Jul 2026 · 848 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChanges in the Composition and Diversity of Pasture Grass Due to the Influence of Grazing in the Steppe Zone of Northern KazakhstanAliya Baitelenova, Balzhan Akhylbekova, Meisam Zargar et al.Overgrazing poses a serious threat to the sustainability of steppe pasturelands in Northern Kazakhstan, where intensifying livestock pressure drives significant changes in vegetation composition, species diversity, and soil fertility. This study investigated the effects of grazing intensity on pasture vegetation and chestnut soil properties in the Zhaksyn district of the Akmola region. Field surveys were conducted in July-August 2024 using … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2026 · 1,338 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Agritechnologies on the Biomass and Nutritional Parameters of Crops: A Study of Corn, Soybean, and Pea in Southeast KazakhstanGulvira Yessenbayeva, Aruzhan Ilyas, Serik Kenenbayev et al.The study investigates the impact of various agritechnologies on the biomass and nutritional parameters of corn, soybean, and winter pea cultivated in Southeast Kazakhstan. This research is particularly relevant given the significant challenges facing agriculture in Kazakhstan, including soil degradation, reduced arable land, and the need for sustainable farming practices. Organic and traditional farming methods were evaluated for their effectiveness … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 16 Feb 2026 · 1,600 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCurrent Growth Conditions of Populus Diversifolia Schrenk and Populus Pruinosa Schrenk in the Syr-Darya ValleyPolina Vesselova, Karina Makhmudova et al.In the context of urbanization of territories and the intensification of agriculture, the biological diversity of animals and plants in their habitats is degrading. The purpose of the study is to determine the edaphic factors affecting the growth of Populus diversifolia Schrenk and Populus pruinosa Schrenk, as well as anthropogenic factors affecting their conservation in the Syr-Darya valley (Kazakhstan).

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPoly-Species Phytocenoses for Ecosystem Restoration of Degraded Soil CoversAlmabek B. Nugmanov, Sergey V. Mamikhin, Khusain Kh. Valiev et al.Agroecological studies are based on the concept that, by understanding ecological processes, it is possible to manage agroecosystems for more sustainable production of more biomass and, thus, protection of natural resources. Many studies in the field of agroecology show that some farming methods can improve soil quality and restore agroecosystems by increasing plant biodiversity. Functional characteristics of plants for the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 22 Jul 2022 · 5,713 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCurrent State of Haplic Chernozems in Specially Protected Natural Areas of the Steppe ZoneSaglara S. Mandzhieva, Lyudmila Yu. Goncharova, Abdulmalik A. Batukaev et al.The current ecological state of Haplic Chernozems has been studied in three Specially Protected Natural Areas (SPNAs) of the Steppe zone in South of Russia. It has been found that the content of organic matter, texture and elements content of soils depend on the period and conditions of reservation in the SPNA. In accordance with the content and reserve of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 13 Dec 2017 · 7,352 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermodynamic Model of Calcium Carbonate System of Soil SolutionAbdulmalik A. Batukaev, Anatoliy P. Endovitsky, Andrey G. Andreev et al.Carbonate system determines the basic processes of soil formation and evolution. The aim of research was to show the importance of chemical Carbonate Calcium Equilibrium (CCE) in soil solutions. CCE causes a degree of soil solution’s saturation with CaCO3 as a factor of carbonate geochemical cycle. CCE depends on chemical composition, pH, Eh, buffering properties of liquid phase, dissolution, migration, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 18 May 2016 · 7,978 accessesView PDFCite
