Microbiome‐mediated plant‐soil feedbacks as a tool for resilient agriculture

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Translating plant‐soil feedbacks (PSFs) into reliable agricultural management requires shifting from input‐dependent practices toward endogenous, process‐driven crop resilience. To bridge this gap, we propose a predictive framework centered on three strategic interventions: engineering the crop holobiont, diversifying the soil habitat, and deploying ...

The Impact of Continuous Cropping on Phenolic Acids in Muskmelon Soil and the Colonization of Trichoderma viride

Agronomy
The obstacle associated with continuous cropping is an important problem in the production of muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.). The allelochemicals from root exudates play an active role in root–microbe communication.

Carbon‐Fixing Bacterial Network Complexity Mediates Soil Multifunctionality in a Panax notoginseng‐Pinus armandii Agroforestry System

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autotrophic carbon‐fixing bacteria (CFB) are central contributors to soil carbon sequestration and biogeochemical carbon cycling in agroforestry ecosystems and can act as reliable biological indicators for evaluating agroforestry ecosystem sustainability.

A Study on the Distribution Characteristics of Salinity and Nutrients and the Migration Mechanism of Soil Salt in the Delingha Saline‐Alkali Soil Profile of the Qaidam Basin

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil salinization negatively impacts the economic development and ecological environment, particularly in the arid and semiarid regions of China. The Qaidam Basin constitutes a major distribution area of saline‐alkali land in the country. However, the distribution patterns of salinity and nutrients within soil profiles and the underlying salt ...

Extracellular Self-DNA Accumulation as a Potential Driver of Continuous Cropping Obstacle in Morchella sextelata and Morchella eximia

Horticulturae
Continuous cropping obstacle (CCO) is becoming a major restrictive factor limiting the sustainable development of morel industry. The species-specific autotoxicity of extracellular self-DNA (esDNA) may be one of the primary drivers underlying the ...

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective

Oikos, EarlyView.
The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

Engaging the public in plant science: Communication facilitators and barriers of scaling up a citizen science campaign

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Volunteers have been involved in nature observations for decades through citizen science initiatives, providing large data sets as well as problem identification that allow a more complete understanding of many natural phenomena. Although communication is a core component in citizen science, the key factors that determine its effectiveness in ...

Biocontrol Potential of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens PP19 in Alleviating Watermelon Continuous Cropping Obstacles

Horticulturae
Continuous cropping obstacles (CCOs) lead to a decline in yield and quality under repeated cultivation in the same farmland. Notably, CCOs caused by fusarium wilt, autotoxicity, or imbalance in rhizosphere microbial communities reduce the productivity of watermelons (Citrullus lanatus).
