Mechanism of Combined Improvement of Saline‐Alkali Soil by Artificial Humic Acid and Microbial Inoculant

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To address the widespread constraints imposed by saline‐alkaline soils on agricultural production worldwide, the combined reclamation and carbon cycle regulation effects of artificial humic acid (AHA) and a multifunctional microbial inoculant were evaluated through pot experiments. Results demonstrated that co‐application of AHA (4 g·kg−1) and

Application of Organic Superabsorbent Cellulosic Polymers (OSCPs) and Cyanobacteria on Reduction of Aeolian Losses

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Establishing biocrusts on sandy surfaces in harsh desert environments presents significant challenges due to extreme ecological conditions. To address these challenges, this study examined the effects of two organic superabsorbent cellulosic polymers (OSCPs)—carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and guar gum (GUA)—on the establishment of ...

Isolation and characterization of halotolerant plant growth promoting rhizobacteria from mangrove region of Sundarbans, India for enhanced crop productivity

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Halotolerant plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are beneficial microorganisms utilized to mitigate the biotic and abiotic stresses in plants. The areas of Sundarban mangroves of West Bengal, India have been reported to be rich in halotolerant ...

Saline versus alkaline stresses in paddy soils drive divergent microbial nutrient limitations despite shared carbon constraints

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Soil salinization and alkalization often suppress microbial functional activity, triggering negative feedback loops in microbial metabolism, degrading nutrients and agricultural productivity.

Microbial Partnerships for Sustainable Soybean Cultivation: Mechanisms, Applications and Prospects

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soybean production is increasingly threatened by fluctuating environmental conditions and nutrient limitations. While synthetic fertilisers can alleviate these constraints, their excessive use has raised concerns regarding long‐term soil health. Consequently, leveraging beneficial soil microbes, a diverse group of microorganisms that reside in

Native biocrust microbes modulate salinity‐driven recruitment filters in coastal wetlands

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Mediterranean coastal wetlands are biodiversity hotspots increasingly threatened by climate change, particularly by salinization, which strongly constrains plant recruitment during early life stages. Native soil microbiota may provide nature‐based solutions (NbS) to enhance plant establishment under saline conditions.

Microeukaryotic Diversity and Habitat Structuring in a Desiccating Alkaline Maar Lake (Central Mexico)

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
ABSTRACT Microeukaryotes are important components of microbial food webs in saline and alkaline lakes, yet their diversity and distribution across distinct microhabitats remain poorly understood. We characterized microeukaryotic communities associated with microbialites, microbial mats, hypersaline waters, and sediments in the desiccating maar lake ...

A halotolerant aldose reductase from Debaryomyces nepalensis: gene isolation, overexpression and biochemical characterization

, 2017
Aldose reductase (AR) catalyzes the conversion of aldoses to polyols, the natural sugar substitutes. Here we provide gene sequence and characteristics of the first-ever halotolerant AR which could be exploited as a potential biocatalyst.
