Arbuscular mycorrhizae improves photosynthesis and water status of Zea mays L. under drought stress

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2012
The influences of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus on growth, gas exchange, chlorophyll concentration, chlorophyll fluorescence and water status of maize (Zea mays L.) plants were studied in pot culture under well-watered and drought stress conditions.

Effects of trichloroethylene stress on the microbiological characteristics of Mollisol

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2019
Trichloroethylene (TCE), one of 129 kinds of priority pollutants, is the most common halogenated organic pollutant in the environment. To explore the changes in soil physicochemical properties and biological activities then clarify the effects of these factors on bacterial, fungal and actinomycetes communities in Mollisol under TCE stress is the ...

Sorption and desorption of glyphosate in Mollisols and Ultisols soils of Argentina [PDF]

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2017
Abstract   In Argentina, glyphosate use has increased exponentially in recent years as a result of the widespread adoption of no-till management combined with genetically modified glyphosate-resistant crops.

Microbial Community and Their Potential Functions after Natural Vegetation Restoration in Gullies of Farmland in Mollisols of Northeast China

, 2022
Although huge numbers of gullies have been widely formed and have severely decreased the quality of farmlands in mollisols, it is still unclear how the microbial community distributes after natural vegetation restoration (NVR), which highly relates to ...

13C-DNA-SIP Distinguishes the Prokaryotic Community That Metabolizes Soybean Residues Produced Under Different CO2 Concentrations

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The amendment of crop residues produced under elevated CO2 (eCO2) may alter soil microbial community structure and their functions on residue decomposition and carbon (C) cycling in soil.

Linking Plant and Microbial Traits to Soil Carbon for Reliable and Resilient Bioenergy Systems

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2026.
Plant–microbe–soil interactions supporting productivity and soil carbon storage in bioenergy systems. Plants supply organic inputs that sustain microbial communities driving nutrient cycling, carbon stabilization, and soil aggregation. These interactions enhance soil structure and nutrient retention, supporting both biomass productivity and broader ...

Potential role of organic matter in the transmission of antibiotic resistance genes in black soils

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
The degradation of black soil is a serious problem with the decrease in soil organic matter (SOM) content in northeast China, and animal manure as a reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) is commonly amended into soil to sustain or increase the ...

Soil physical properties affect nematode counts in the Barnes soil series

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Nematodes are important in soil food webs and are being considered in soil health frameworks. We evaluated nematode counts as a potentially rapid measure of land use effects on soil biology in a benchmark Mollisol. We assessed pedons (0–120 cm) from conventional, no‐till, and grassland fields in eastern North Dakota in October 2022.

Changes in soil test phosphorus are not predictable using fertilizer input and crop removal

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Volatile fertilizer prices have led to many producers and researchers exploring different immobile nutrient stratagems to increase the efficiency of fertilizer applications, leading to greater economic return. While many nutrient recommendations are based upon a soil test for that one season, for immobile nutrients such as phosphorus (P ...
