Mycorrhizas and biomass crops: opportunities for future sustainable development [PDF]
Central to soil health and plant productivity in natural ecosystems are in situ soil microbial communities, of which mycorrhizal fungi are an integral component, regulating nutrient transfer between plants and the surrounding soil via extensive mycelial ...

Improving the stability of soil aggregates using soil additives and revegetation by grassland
Soil aggregate stability (SAS) is an important factor for soil quality and fertility. There are limited possibilities to influence this soil property, but one investigated method is the application of additives which have the potential to improve SAS. We

The role of glomalin in soil erosion
Glomalin is a glycoprotein, a sugar protein compound that might trigger the formation of soil. In this study we analyze the different organic matters which inhance mycorrhizal fungi and produce glomalin which is dependent upon the types of organic matter. The more glomalin in a particular soil, the soil probably is better. The amount of glomalin in the

Plant diversity and root traits benefit physical properties key to soil function in grasslands [PDF]
Plant diversity loss impairs ecosystem functioning, including important effects on soil. Most studies that have explored plant diversity effects belowground, however, have largely focused on biological processes.

Symbiotic relationships between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and plants can increase the capacity of plants to absorb nutrients and water from the soil by exploring micropores not accessible to plant roots.

Reproduction and Dispersal of Biological Soil Crust Organisms [PDF]
Biological soil crusts (BSCs) consist of a diverse and highly integrated community of organisms that effectively colonize and collectively stabilize soil surfaces.

The aim of the study was to assess the content of total organic carbon (TOC), macronutrients (P, K, and Mg), and glomalin (easily extractable glomalin-related soil protein (EEGRSP)) in soil, micronutrients (Zn and Cu) in soil and wheat, and the number of

Study on Simultaneous Colonization of Rhizophagus irregularis and Serendipita indica in Barley under Different P Levels Using Monoclonal Antibody [PDF]
Introduction Recent studies show that most crops and horticultural plants can form symbiosis with the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and the endophytic Serendepita indica, simultaneously.

Terrestrial–marine connectivity: patterns of terrestrial soil carbon deposition in coastal sediments determined by analysis of glomalin related soil protein [PDF]
Glomalin, an arbuscular mycorrhizal protein component of soil, can be used as an indicator of terrigenous-derived carbon. We measured glomalin in sediments using the terrestrial end-member as a reference in four coastal settings: (1) intertidal seagrass ...
