Glomalin extraction and measurement

Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2008
Abstract We investigated extraction from soil of glomalin, a glycoprotein produced by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, and we examined its measurement. The most commonly used protocols for extracting glomalin require autoclaving of soil in citrate solution, followed by centrifugation to separate the supernatant, and then measurement by either Bradford ...

Glomalin: an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal soil protein

Protoplasma, 2012
Glomalin is abundant in soils and is closely correlated with aggregate water stability. Glomalin contains carbon and, hence, constitutes a non-trivial portion of the terrestrial carbon pool. Possibly far more importantly, however, stabilization of aggregates amplifies the role of glomalin in soils because carbonaceous compounds are protected from ...

Re-examining the glomalin-purity of glomalin-related soil protein fractions through immunochemical, lectin-affinity and soil labelling experiments

Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2008
Abstract Due to analytical similarities with the mycorrhizal glycoprotein glomalin, ubiquitous citrate and heat-extractable soil protein fractions have been assumed to be predominantly glomalin-stabilised within soil. Often termed glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP), little however is actually known of the “glomalin-purity” of these soil fractions ...

Differential decomposition of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal hyphae and glomalin

Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2003
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are obligate symbionts of most higher plants. In addition to being a major component of soil microbial biomass, AMF hyphae produce glomalin, a recalcitrant glycoproteinaceous substance highly correlated with soil aggregate water stability.

Characterization of glomalin as a hyphal wall component of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2005
Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) produce a protein, glomalin, quantified operationally in soils as glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP). GRSP concentrations in soil can range as high as several mg g−1 soil, and GRSP is highly positively correlated with aggregate water stability. Given that AMF are obligate biotrophs (i.e. depending on host

Assay of Glomalin Using a Quartz Crystal Microbalance Biosensor

Electroanalysis, 2018
AbstractGlomalin is a soil protein abundantly occurring in the soil. In the current time, knowledge about glomalin is limited and there are also missing simple test for the determination of glomalin in the environment. This work is devoted to construction of a biosensor which is expected to be a simple device for the determination of glomalin in ...

Glomalin in Ecosystems

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 2007
Glomalin is an abundant soil glycoprotein that could sequester substantial amounts of C and N on a global scale. Nevertheless, major controls over the distribution of this compound in ecosystems are little understood. We reviewed shifts in the production, decomposition, and standing stocks of soil glomalin in response to arbuscular
