Characterization of glomalin proteins in soil: A potential indicator of erosion intensity

Open Geosciences
In this study, in a pioneering effort, glomalin proteins were extracted and geochemically characterized from soil in Serbia. Standard chemical (dry combustion, Walkley-Black) and spectroscopic methods (fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi communities and glomalin mediate particulate and mineral-associated organic carbon formation in grassland patches

Communications Earth & Environment
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi stimulate particulate and mineral-associated organic carbon formation and stabilization through hyphae residue, glomalin-related soil proteins gluing, and mycelium entangling.

The Hidden Powers of Glomalin: Insights into Soil Health and Functionality

Archives of Current Research International
Agricultural practices such as the application of inorganic fertilizers and pesticides have profound effects on soil, altering its physical and chemical properties and consequently impacting soil biota composition and diversity. Since plant health is intricately linked to soil health, managing soil in a manner that conserves and enhances soil biota can

The pitfalls of rDNA-based AMF identification: a comparative analysis of rDNA and protein-coding genes. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Intragenomic polymorphism of rDNA in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) has been largely overlooked in ecological and taxonomic studies, and the reliability of nuclear rDNA regions for species identification has not been comprehensively evaluated and compared with protein‐coding genes.

Hairy Vetch Intercropping Attenuates Mycorrhizal Benefits to Walnut Growth and Soil Organic Carbon Sequestration via Glomalin. [PDF]

Microb Ecol
Intercropping is a prevalent soil management strategy within walnut orchards, while its impacts on the functionality of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in walnuts (Juglans regia) remain unclear, especially concerning soil carbon (C) sequestration via ...

Glomalin: A Miracle Protein for Carbon Sequestration

International Journal of Plant & Soil Science, 2022
AMF (Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi)’s hyphae and spore walls releases a special kind of glycoprotein i.e. Glomalin. AMF belongs to the phylem Glomeromycota which was previously known as Zygomycota. There exists a symbiotic relationship of this fungi with terrestrial plants (~80%), that includes major commercial species viz.

Exogenous glomalin boosts kumquat seedling growth by enhancing soil structure and biochemical activity. [PDF]

Front Plant Sci
Introduction Glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP), a nitrogen-linked glycoprotein secreted by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, is recognized for its role in enhancing soil physical and chemical properties and improving ecosystem stability. However, the dose-

Effect of organic fertilisers on glomalin content and soil organic matter quality

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2020
Glomalin is one of the factors with an important role at forming and stabilising soil aggregates. Long-term stationary experiments were carried out to observe the influence of various fertilisation treatments on the content of glomalin in topsoil.
