Influence of Soil Mineral Colloids on Metabolic Processes, Growth, Adhesion, and Ecology of Microbes and Viruses

Stotzky, G.·1986·SSSA Special Publications

Abstract

This chapter reviews what is and what is not known about the effects of clay minerals on microbes and viruses in soil, the mechanisms involved, and the importance of clay minerals to microbial events and to the survival of viruses in soil. It then illuminates the mystiques, exposes the unsupported assumptions, undermines established error, and indicates directions for future realistic and productive research. The chapter defines the indirect effects as those effects of clays that modify the environment in which the microbes and viruses are residing. Direct effects are defined as those effects that involve a surface interaction between clays and microbes and viruses. Although the adsorption and binding of organic compounds on clay minerals are, by this definition, indirect effects, they are discussed primarily under direct effects, as the mechanisms involved in the adsorption and binding of organics may be similar to those involved in surface interactions between clays and microbes and viruses.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
