Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
Studies were carried out under laboratory conditions to assess the effects of three methyl bromide alternatives fumigants application on microbial carbon metabolism on greenhouse soil. The average well color development (AWCD) obtained by the BIOLOG GN2 plate essay indicated there was no significant inhibitory effect on soil microbial utilization of the overall carbon sources after chloropicrin fumigation, but significant decrease were shown after 1,3-dichloropropene and metam sodium applications. However, chloropicrin fumigation enhanced carbohydrates and amides substrates utilization. The soil microbial community functional diversity was significantly activated in the chloropicrin treatment than in the 1,3 dichloropropene and metam sodium treatments after remove the fumigants. Principal component analysis indicated that soil microbial community became distinguishable between three fumigants treatments and kept stable respectively after soil fumigation disturbance.
