Determination of glomalin in agriculture and forest soils by near-infrared spectroscopy

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2017
Determining and characterizing soil organic matter (SOM) cheaply and reliably can help to support decisions concerning sustainable land management and climate policy. Glomalin was recommended as one of possible indicators of SOM quality.

Soil sample timing and depth effect on soil health assessment in Mid‐South US row‐crop production systems

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract Spatial and seasonal variability in soil properties influences soil analysis results, but their impact on soil health assessment has not been well investigated. We evaluated how soil health indicators and scores were affected by soil sampling time (spring, summer, fall, and winter) and depth (0–5, 5–10, and 10–15 cm).

Gross Nitrogen Transformations in Long‐Term Phosphorus Fertilisation Experiments Across Three European Agroecosystems

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT The effects of long‐term phosphorus (P) fertilisation in agroecosystems on nitrogen (N) cycling are still elusive, in terms of P‐induced increase or reduction of N availability for plants and microorganisms, thereby affecting plant growth and also N2O emissions.

Long‐term warming drives mineral‐associated organic carbon accumulation on the Tibetan Plateau

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1809-1821, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Global warming affects both plant growth and soil microbial decomposition, creating uncertainty for the storage and persistence of soil organic carbon (SOC) stock. Limited decomposition rates often characterise cold alpine ecosystems.

Glomalin production in Atlantic Forest: Effects of soil properties and plant families

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Glomalin, a glycoprotein produced by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), contributes to soil aggregation, carbon sequestration, and nutrient cycling. We present the first comprehensive assessment of environmental factors associated with glomalin availability, measured as easily extractable (easily extractable glomalin‐related soil protein [EE ...

Effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on the reduction of arsenic accumulation in plants: a meta-analysis

Frontiers in Plant Science
Arsenic (As) accumulation in plants is a global concern. Although the application of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) has been suggested as a potential solution to decrease As concentration in plants, there is currently a gap in a comprehensive ...

Efficiency of Bradford‐Reactive Protein Extraction From Agriculture Soil in Relation to Soil Parameters

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Effect of selected extraction factors on Bradford‐reactive soil protein extractability from arable land and grassland in relation to color correction. ABSTRACT The aim of the study was to investigate the hypothesis that by altering extraction time, temperature in the autoclave, and type of extractant during extraction, the maximum possible Bradford ...

Floodplain reforestation reduces nitrate loss through soil microbial pathways

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
Reforesting floodplains with native Melaleuca substantially reduced nitrate leaching relative to sugarcane, driven by higher soil organic carbon supporting decomposer‐dominated microbial communities that immobilise nitrogen rather than converting it to leachable nitrate.

Soil Physical Health in Mixed Crop Rotations: Roles of Grassland Proportion, Cattle Manure and Grass‐Mixture Diversity

Soil Use and Management, Volume 42, Issue 2, April‐June 2026.
ABSTRACT Integrating grasslands into cropping systems has benefits for nutrient cycling and weed control. Beyond that, grasslands are also recognized for their ability to improve soil organic carbon (SOC) and structural stability (SS). This study examined how grassland proportion, fertilization and grassland mixture, both during the grassland phase and

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Orchestrate Soil Microbial Community Assembly Along a Salix cupularis Restoration Chronosequence in a Desertified Alpine Grassland

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Our findings indicate that fungal communities exhibit higher sensitivity and highlight the dynamic regulatory function of AMF, especially under dual‐mycorrhizal symbiosis. These results provide novel mechanistic insights into soil microbe trajectories, suggesting that targeted AMF inoculation is crucial for the early‐to‐mid establishment phase of ...
