Connecting the dots: Network structure as a functional trait in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Soil health and sustainable land management are critical to addressing global challenges such as food security, climate resilience, and biodiversity loss. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi form underground networks that enhance plant nutrient uptake and improve soil structure, yet their functional diversity remains poorly understood, limiting their ...

Mycelium chemistry differs markedly between ectomycorrhizal and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
Communications Biology, 2022 Chemical profiles of arbuscular (AM) and ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi reveal that differences in decomposability-relevant chemistry are larger between AM and EM fungi than across plant functional groups.

Azole antifungal contaminants disrupt mycorrhizal function and risk agricultural sustainability
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Global food production is increasingly threatened by soil degradation, climate change and the rising costs of synthetic fertilisers. Circular agriculture, which promotes resource reuse, is a promising solution, but using treated wastewater and biosolids in farming introduces risks from emerging contaminants like pharmaceutical residues.

Pomegranate transplant stress can be ameliorated by rhizophagus intraradices under nursery management [PDF]
, 2018 Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) establish an obligate mutualistic symbiosis with many plant species, increasing the uptake of phosphorous and other low-mobile nutrients by roots.

Incorporating soil biological and functional attributes to advance ecological restoration
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Earth is currently experiencing a mass extinction crisis, predominantly driven by anthropogenic activities, with land use change causing widespread loss and degradation of native ecosystems and indigenous species. There is an urgent need to halt this trend and restore degraded habitat to preserve biodiversity and protect threatened plants and animals ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and colonization stimulant in cotton and maize
Ciência Rural: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of inoculation with different arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi native to Cerrado, associated with the application of colonization stimulant (7-hydroxy, 4’-methoxy-isoflavone) at the initial growth of ...

Transcriptomic analysis of field-droughted sorghum from seedling to maturity reveals biotic and metabolic responses. [PDF]
, 2019 Drought is the most important environmental stress limiting crop yields. The C4 cereal sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is a critical food, forage, and emerging bioenergy crop that is notably drought-tolerant.
