The effect of salinity levels on certain physiological groups of microorganisms in irrigated soils of Bukhara region

Abstract

This article describes some physiological classes of microorganisms (nitrifiers, ammonifiers, and nitrate reducers), their activity, and the variables influencing it in the alluvial soils of irrigated meadows in the Bukhara region.A thorough analysis of the effects of an excess of readily soluble salts in water on ammonifiers, nitrifiers, and nitrate reducers belonging to the physiological group of microorganisms, as well as the influence of soil salinity levels and salt content on these microorganisms, is provided.
