Glomalin – Truths, myths, and the future of this elusive soil glycoprotein

Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2021
Abstract The term “Glomalin” was originally used to describe a hypothetical gene product of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) that was assumed to be a nearly ubiquitous, thermostable and highly recalcitrant glycoprotein, deposited in soils in large amounts, and deemed to indicate soil health and quality.

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

Potential interaction mechanisms between PAHs and glomalin related-soil protein (GRSP)

Chemosphere, 2023
Glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP) has gained widespread attention because of its benefits to carbon sequestration, improving soil quality and fixing heavy metals. However, studies on how GRSP affects the environmental fate of organic contaminants are scarce. In this study, different types of GRSPs were isolated from forest soils and characterized to

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 ...

Glomalin: A Key Indicator for Soil Carbon Stabilization

2021
In the last decades, many studies were addressed focusing on soil protection that helps sequestration and stabilization of organic carbon in soil aggregates. Soil aggregates are an association of primary soil particles, bacteria, fungi, plant root and soil organic matter.

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 ...

Soil minerals regulate soil organic carbon accumulation through glomalin-related soil protein along an elevation gradient in a mountain arid ecosystem.

Environmental Research
Soil minerals and glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP), as key soil binding agents, play a crucial role in enhancing soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration.

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 ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizae, glomalin, and soil aggregation

Canadian Journal of Soil Science, 2004
Arbuscular mycorrhizae are important factors of soil quality through their effects on host plant physiology, soil ecological interactions, and their contributions to maintaining soil structure. The symbiosis is faced with numerous challenges in agroecosystems; in order to inform sustainable management strategies it is hence a high priority to work ...
