Matchmaking: a meta‐analysis of plant growth‐promoting microbial partnerships driving tree seedling performance in the Atlantic Forest biome

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The Brazilian Atlantic Forest (BAF) is a biodiversity hotspot, and inoculating native seedlings with plant growth‐promoting microorganisms (PGPMs) may enhance seedling vigor for forest restoration. Objectives We performed a meta‐analysis to evaluate the effects of PGPMs on BAF seedlings and identify strategies to optimize ...

Trade-Offs in Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis: Disease Resistance, Growth Responses and Perspectives for Crop Breeding

, 2017
There is an increasing need to develop high-yielding, disease-resistant crops and reduce fertilizer usage. Combining disease resistance with efficient nutrient assimilation through improved associations with symbiotic microorganisms would help to address

Gene Editing and Transformation Strategies for Engineering Drought‐Tolerant Legumes

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Legumes play a vital role in agriculture, nutrition, and the economy, but their production faces significant threats. Among these, drought and its unpredictability will be the most damaging constraint in the coming decades. Enhancing drought tolerance is essential for resilient and sustainable legume cultivation, and genetic engineering ...

The effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on carbon dioxide (CO2) emission from turfgrass soil under different irrigation intervals

Journal of Water and Climate Change
Increased nutrient and/or water uptake by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis can affect soil biochemical properties and emission of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2).

Soil Properties and Plant Species Identity Independently Influence Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungal Composition Across Lowland Tropical Forests

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
We found that plant species identity and soil properties, especially soil phosphorus availability, independently structured arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) community composition in tropical forests across central Panama. We also found that soil nutrient availability may mediate the interaction networks between plants and AMF. ABSTRACT Plant species

In‐Field Evaluation of Triticum spelta and Triticum aestivum Performance Under Contrasting Irrigation Regimes and Farming Systems: Impact on Yield, Grain Quality and Soil Microbiota

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Volume 212, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Drought is a major abiotic stress affecting crop yields worldwide. Similarly, organic practices have been reported to enhance soil health and microbial diversity, influencing crop growth and yield. Given its drought tolerance, spelt (Triticum spelta) has been proposed as a resilient alternative to wheat (Triticum aestivum).

Community Trait Distributions Drive Biomass Stand Allocation Trade‐Offs in Karst Forests

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
In this study, multi‐source data (functional traits of dominant species, topography‐soil parameters, and biomass) of the dynamic monitoring plot of Maolan Dynamic Plot of Karst Forest Ecosystem in South China were collected. The partial least squares structural equation model (PLS‐SEM) was adopted to study the biomass trade‐off strategy of the karst ...

Chemical Fingerprinting of Spiranthes spiralis L. Methanol Seed Extract: Spectroscopic, Chromatographic, and Computational Approaches

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Spiranthes spiralis L. seed methanol extract was morphologically and chemically characterized using microscopy, FT‐IR, GC–MS, and in silico analyses. The extract exhibited high phenolic content and strong DPPH radical scavenging activity, while GC–MS identified 22 bioactive compounds with notable binding affinity toward the GPR52 receptor.

Integrated Management of Striga hermonthica in Sorghum Using Glomus mosseae, Bacillus megaterium, and Phosphorus

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
Glomus mosseae, Bacillus megaterium, and phosphorus significantly suppress Striga hermonthica, enhance sorghum growth, and improve soil fertility, offering a sustainable biocontrol strategy against Striga in nutrient‐deficient soils. ABSTRACT The root parasitic weed Striga hermonthica, a member of the Orobanchaceae family, is a major constraint to ...

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Geranium sylvaticum*

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 2, February 2026.
Geranium sylvaticum is a perennial forb of upland grasslands, woodlands and riverbanks in northern Britain, with scattered native occurrences also in Wales, central England and Northern Ireland. It has an extensive native range in Europe and Asia. The species is gynodioecious, with individual plants typically female or hermaphrodite.
