Investigation of growth responses in saprophytic fungi to charred biomass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present the results of a study testing the response of two saprophytic white-rot fungi species, Pleurotus pulmonarius and Coriolus versicolor, to charred biomass (charcoal) as a growth substrate.

Mycorrhizal symbiosis and seedling performance of the frankincense tree (Boswellia papyrifera) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Arid areas are characterized by a seasonal climate with a long dry period. In such stressful environment, resource availability is driven by longterm and shorterm rainfall pulses.

Underground Signals: The Ecological Power of Root Volatiles

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Root volatiles mediate rhizosphere chemical communication, shaping interactions among plants, microbes, herbivores, and natural enemies. Their production, transport, and perception underpin ecological adaptation, multitrophic interactions, and plant resilience, offering opportunities for sustainable crop protection, resilient agroecosystems, and ...

Response of Chaetomium sp. to Nitrogen Input and Its Potential Role in Rhizosphere Enrichment of Lycium barbarum

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Lycium barbarum L. (goji berry), a traditional Chinese medicinal plant, depends heavily on nitrogen input to maintain productivity. Nitrogen application also profoundly influences rhizosphere microbial dynamics, which are critical for soil health and ...

Engineering Microbial Particles for Next‐Generation Biomedical Platforms

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Microbe‐derived particles (MDPs), which include extracellular vesicles, outer membrane vesicles, inclusion bodies, polysaccharide particles, and virus‐like particles, represent a rapidly expanding category of bioinspired nanomaterials. With their natural origin, intrinsic biocompatibility, and highly programmable functionality, MDPs serve as a ...

Getting by With a Little Help From Fungal Friends: Seed‐Associated Endophytes Contribute to Seed Defense Against Fungal Pathogens in Keystone Tropical Trees

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Soil‐borne fungal pathogens are known to be major causes of seed mortality in tropical forests; however, not all fungal infections of seeds are necessarily lethal.

Beneficial Effects of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Trichoderma on Diseased Shallot

open access: yesJurnal Perlindungan Tanaman Indonesia, 2020
Purple blotch and fusarium basal rot are important shallot diseases which have caused significant yield loss. An alternative control method for these diseases is the use of biocontrol agents, such as arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and Trichoderma. The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of AMF and Trichoderma sp.

Beneficial interactions between bacteria and edible mushrooms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Mushroom-forming fungi establish mutual beneficial interactions with plants and degrade organic waste. These fungi also play an important role in human societies to produce mycelium materials, as a source of medicinal compounds, and as food.
