Abstract
This study explored how different sugarcane vinasses influence the structure and composition of soil bacterial communities in two tropical Oxisols with contrasting textures. In a controlled microcosm experiment with sugarcane seedlings, two concentrations of three vinasse types were applied, and bacterial communities were monitored over 10, 30, and 60 days using T-RFLP and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Across all treatments, vinasse application led to clear changes in bacterial community structure in both soils, regardless of the time point. Certain bacterial groups, such as Sphingobacteriia, Alphaproteobacteria, and Gammaproteobacteria, became more abundant—likely responding to increased carbon availability, higher pH, and greater soil moisture. At the same time, other groups declined, possibly due to excess nutrients like potassium and sulfur. Notably, these shifts occurred even when standard biochemical indicators suggested no major impact, highlighting the sensitivity of microbial community-level responses. These findings point to the importance of looking beyond traditional soil quality metrics when assessing the environmental effects of organic residue applications. Incorporating microbial indicators can offer a more nuanced understanding of how practices like vinasse reuse affect soil functioning in tropical agroecosystems.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
