Effects of Symbiotic Fungi on Sugars and Soil Fertility and Structure-Mediated Changes in Plant Growth of Vicia villosa

Agriculture, 2022
Many terrestrial plants form reciprocal symbioses with beneficial fungi in roots; however, it is not clear whether Vicia villosa, an important forage and green manure crop, can co-exist with these fungi and how such symbiosis affects plant growth and ...

Soil aggregation and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi as indicators of slope rehabilitation in the São Francisco River basin (Brazil)

Soil and Water Research, 2016
Anthropogenic activity along the Velhas River (São Francisco River basin) has destabilized the banks of the river channel across an urban fragment. To improve the physical stabilization, the base of the slope was stabilized with urban construction waste.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi enhance plant performance in trace element‐contaminated soils with element‐specific accumulation patterns

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil contamination by toxic trace elements is a growing global challenge that threatens food safety, agricultural productivity, and ecosystem health. We combined results from many experiments worldwide to assess whether beneficial soil fungi can help plants cope with contaminated soils.

Agronomic Practices Alter Regulated Effects of Easily Extractable Glomalin-Related Soil Protein on Fruit Quality and Soil Properties of Satsuma Mandarin

Agronomy, 2023
Easily extractable glomalin-related soil protein (EEG) released from arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi exhibits many roles in soil and plants, while it is not clear whether the biostimulator alone or in combination with agronomic practices can improve soil ...

Glomus iranicum var. Tenuihypharum as a Biofertilizer Modulates Soil Microbial Community Composition and Enhances Soil Carbon Dynamics in Nectarine Cultivation

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The development of biofertilization strategies based on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) represents a promising approach to enhance crop productivity and soil health while reducing the environmental footprint of conventional fertilization. This study evaluated the effects of Glomus iranicum var.

Biochar‐Induced Shifts in Fungal Community Structure and Their Association With Soil Physical Properties in Degraded Soil From the Brazilian Semiarid

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9067-9083, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil degradation compromises ecosystem functioning. Biochar, a carbon‐rich amendment, has gained attention as a promising strategy to enhance soil structure and restore microbial balance. This study investigated the effects of two biochars, cashew bagasse biochar (CBB) and a co‐pyrolyzed biochar produced from sewage sludge and cashew pruning ...

Antioxidant Response of Lepidium sativum L. to Metallic Trace Element Stress Under Controlled Mycorrhization Conditions

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Lepidium sativum plants were inoculated with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and exposed to Pb stress (50 mg L−1). Catalase activity, soluble sugars, glomalin, proline, and chlorophyll a and b were analyzed. Overall, mycorrhizal plants showed the most favorable biochemical responses under Pb stress, highlighting the beneficial role of AMF in Pb ...

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).
