Rapid turnover of hyphae of mycorrhizal fungi determined by AMS microanalysis of C-14 [PDF]

, 2003
Processes in the soil remain among the least well-characterized components of the carbon cycle. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are ubiquitous root symbionts in many terrestrial ecosystems and account for a large fraction of photosynthate in a wide ...

Engineering Nanoclay Edges to Construct Effective Polysulfide‐Trapping Interface for Markedly Enhanced Electrochemical Energy Storage

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A capsule‐shaped silicate clay (H‐ATP‐N2) rich in protonated edge hydroxyl groups (‐OH2+) is synthesized through a two‐step process involving microwave‐assisted acid treatment and N2 plasma etching to fibrous natural attapulgite. The H‐ATP‐N2 host inhibits the shuttle effect owing to the dominant adsorption mechanism–Lewis acid–base interaction between

Rapid removal of ammonium from domestic wastewater using polymer hydrogels [PDF]

, 2018
To date, technologies to recover ammonium from domestic wastewater from the mainstream have not found widespread application. This is largely due to the low ammonium concentrations in these wastewater streams.

Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

An arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus accelerates decomposition and acquires nitrogen directly from organic material [PDF]

, 2001
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (order Glomales), which form mycorrhizal symbioses with two out of three of all plant species, are believed to be obligate biotrophs that are wholly dependent on the plant partner for their carbon supply.

Rhizobial motility preference in root colonization of Medicago truncatula

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 547-562, April 2026.
Summary Tunnel‐like infection thread (IT) structures support root colonization by symbiotic nitrogen‐fixing rhizobia bacteria in most legume species. These tip‐grown structures are key to directing rhizobia from root hairs to developing nodules, where they are hosted to fix nitrogen.

Advances in Safe, Flexible, and Stretchable Batteries for Wearable Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 6, 18 March 2026.
Unlike previous reviews centered on component‐based deformability, this work highlights safety‐driven design strategies for flexible and stretchable batteries. By integrating material‐level engineering, geometry‐controlled structures, biocompatibility, and self‐protection mechanisms, it establishes a unified framework that connects mechanical ...

Preparation and Characteristics of Polystyrene/Attapulgite Composites Via In-siu Suspension Polymerization

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2016
A series of polystyrene/attapulgite composites were synthesized through suspension polymerization. The composites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and X-ray diffraction.
