An integrated social and natural sciences case study for the reuse of organic wastes as soil amendments

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Reusing organic waste materials, such as animal manure, as soil amendments reduces water and fertiliser demand, contributing to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. However, organic wastes may contain contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), posing potential ecosystem and human health risks. Despite the importance of this issue, there is a lack

Utilization of Biochar and Mycorrhiza to Increase the Absorption of Elemental Nutrients of Cayenne Chili Plant (Capsicum fruntescnes L.)

Journal of Tropical Soils, 2021
This study aimed to obtain the composition of biochar as a soil enhancer and mycorrhizal dose, which affected the nutrient uptake of cayenne plants. This experimental research was based on a separate plot design (RPT) with a basic randomized block design

Crop genotypic richness enhances biomass production and phosphorus acquisition in maize‐mycorrhiza symbiosis

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Our study tests how soil and plant biodiversity can enhance sustainability of crop production in Kenya. We tested whether mixtures of maize varieties performed better than monocultures and tested their response to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal responsiveness differed significantly by maize variety, and genetic mixtures outperformed ...

Effect of salinity stress on mycorrhizal association and growth response of peanut infected by Glomus mosseae

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2010
Arbuscular mycorrhiza is a mutualistic association between fungi and higher plants, and play a critical role in nutrient cycling and stress tolerance. However, much less is known about the mycorrhiza-mediated enhancement in growth and salinity tolerance ...

Mycorrhizal identity of neighbouring trees shapes seedling survival and plant–soil feedbacks through trait and light interactions

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant–soil feedbacks (PSF) play a central role in determining forest community dynamics, with trees associated with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) often experiencing negative PSFs, while those associated with ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) experience positive PSFs ...

Assessing the synergistic relationship of mycorrhiza and bacteria for the degradation of spent engine oil in maize grown soil

Bulletin of the National Research Centre, 2020
Background Pollution by waste hydrocarbons on soil and water bodies is an endemic problem in African countries, particularly in Nigeria. This has caused untold hardship and increase in poverty level of the people, due to the pollution of water and land ...
