Glomalin mediation of plant functional traits unveiled in an extreme ecosystem

Flora, 2023
Edaphic filters associated with symbiotic relationships are determinants of plant phenotypes. Here we investigate whether glomalin, a by-product of mycorrhizal fungi that improves soil structure and quality, is involved in the filtering of traits that determine plant ecological strategies.

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.

Effect of Paulownia and Buckwheat Intercropping on Soil Microbial Biodiversity, Dehydrogenase Activity, and Glomalin-Related Soil Protein

Agronomy
Intercropping of trees and classical crops has been proposed as a practice to help adapt to climate change and protect soil against erosion. However, the effects of intercropping on soil biology are not sufficiently quantified. Therefore, the aim of this

Glomalin-related soil protein produced by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi: its role in Pb stabilization at heavily contaminated sites.

Chemosphere
Glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP), produced by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), plays a key role in stabilizing potentially toxic elements. This study evaluated the impact of Pb contamination on GRSP content in rhizosphere soil and its contribution

A pressure cooker method to extract glomalin from soils

Soil Science Society of America Journal, 2001
Glomalin, a glycoprotein produced by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, is an important constituent of soil organic matter. Glomalin is insoluble in water or salt solutions commonly used in soil extractions. Solubilization of glomalin does occur in the presence of citrate at the temperature achieved by an autoclave (121°C, 103 kPa).

Short-term cultivation limiting soil aggregate stability and macronutrient accumulation associated with glomalin-related soil protein in Eucalyptus urophylla × Eucalyptus grandis plantations.

Science of the Total Environment, 2023
The relationship between glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP) and soil aggregation has been a hot topic of research for its close link to soil stability and quality.

Effects of glomalin-related soil protein on soil selenium availability in farmland: a non-negligible component of organic matter.

Journal of Hazardous Materials
The selenium (Se) soil environmental behaviour directly regulates the Se enrichment effect of crops and the risk of Se ecotoxicity and is critically influenced by soil organic matter fractions. Recent studies have shown that glomalin-related soil protein

Glomalin production and accumulation in soilless pot cultures

Canadian Journal of Soil Science, 2010
This study was designed to determine how glomalin production relates to accumulation in three sequential greenhouse culturing periods using a soilless potting medium. The data indicated that this stable glycoprotein was washed out the pot bottom, and did not accumulate in the hyphal chamber.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and glomalin mediate the effects of microplastics on soil carbon storage.

Journal of Hazardous Materials
Microplastics are increasingly recognized as critical drivers of perturbations in biogeochemical cycles, particularly in modulating the storage and release of soil organic carbon (SOC).

The role of glomalin in mitigation of multiple soil degradation problems

Critical Reviews in Environmental Science and Technology, 2020
There is a direct link between the increasing human population and soil degradation that raises current and future food security concerns.
