Global change reshapes glomalin‐mediated soil carbon sequestration by influencing plant inputs

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 655-667, March 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Glomalin‐related soil protein (GRSP), a by‐product of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), plays a crucial role in stabilizing soil organic carbon (SOC). Global change factors (GCFs) such as elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), climate warming and anthropogenic ...

Glomalin: A Potential Soil Conditioner for Perennial Fruits

International Journal of Agriculture and Biology, 2016
Glomalin, a special glycoprotein secreted by hyphae and spore walls of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), possesses some diverse characteristics, of them its hydrophobic nature and stability to heat are most profound. Glomalin sloughs off cementing material following the hyphal degradation that coat soil organic matter and soil particles, thereby ...

Principles for Rigorous Design and Application of Synthetic Microbial Communities

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 10, 18 February 2026.
SynComs are artificially designed to enable inter‐species metabolic interactions, metabolic division of labor, and ecological interactions that can elicit phenotypes like colonization stability and environmental adaptation. This systematic review explores the processes used to construct SynComs, the assessment of the mechanisms of metabolic interaction

Prospects of Cropping with Polysaccharides Producing Microbes Under Drought Stress

Research in Agricultural Sciences
Drought and water stress are the major abiotic stresses that limit plant growth. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, well known for their growth-promoting attributes, produce extracellular polysaccharides that form rhizosheaths around the roots ...

Long‐Term Organic Inputs Effects on Soil Carbon and Nitrogen Sequestration in a Temperate Agroecosystem

Soil Use and Management, Volume 42, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
ABSTRACT Long‐term conservation agriculture with organic inputs is a promising strategy to enhance soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) sequestration, yet few multi‐decadal studies quantify these dynamics. Thus, the present study was aimed at evaluating the effects of compost, manure, cover crops, and fallow on soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (

Influence of Cadmium and Arbuscular Mycorrhizae on Growth and Chlorophyll Content in Theobroma cacao and Theobroma grandiflorum Plants

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Inoculation of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) has important benefits, not only for plant growth but also for reducing Cd absorption in Theobroma plants. This study aimed to investigate the influence of cadmium (Cd) and arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM) on growth and chlorophyll content (CC) in Theobroma plants.

Soil health unaltered by conversion from no‐till to occasional tillage

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Achieving greater productivity and ecological sustainability of agricultural soils requires moving beyond conventional management practices. No‐till (NT) enhances soil health while presenting weed management and nutrient stratification challenges.

Effect of Salinity Stress and Microbial Inoculations on Glomalin Production and Plant Growth Parameters of Snap Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris)

Agronomy, 2019
Salinity is a major abiotic stress that can adversely affect plant growth, yield, other physiological parameters, and soil health. Salinity stress on biomass production of salt-sensitive crops, like snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), is a serious problem ...
