ON THE SIGNIFICANCE OF MYCORRHIZA [PDF]
IT is now generally recognised that the possession of mycorrhiza is not the characteristic only of a few somewhat abnormal families, but is a widespread phenomenon. Janse (I896), in Java, and Gallaud (I905) were among the first workers to indicate the large numbers of species involved.

Abstract Premise Approximately 14% of all fern species have physiologically active chlorophyllous spores that are much more short‐lived than the more common and dormant achlorophyllous spores. Most chlorophyllous‐spored species (70%) are epiphytes and account for almost 37% of all epiphytic ferns.

Topographic thresholds for gully head formation in badlands
Gully topographic threshold model was extended to badlands, on the basis of data collected in the Mediterranean environment in Italy and Spain, characterized by diversified climatic, lithological, geological and anthropogenic settings. Criteria for the attribution of curve number values has been more objectively defined in order to reduce arbitrariness

Tropical surface gold mining: A review of ecological impacts and restoration strategies
Abstract Surface gold mining severely degrades landscapes, causing deforestation, soil erosion and displacement, and toxic contamination. The prevalence of both large‐scale and artisanal, small‐scale surface gold mining in the tropics has risen over recent decades.

The planet faces a climate crisis with severe health, economic and environmental consequences. Political actions such as the European Green Deal aim to mitigate climate change by shifting production and consumption patterns, and the production of mycorrhizal sporocarps—the fruiting body of fungi—is no exception. The production of mycorrhizal sporocarps

Mycorrhizal association of common European tree species shapes biomass and metabolic activity of bacterial and fungal communities in soil [PDF]
Recent studies have revealed effects of various tree species on soil physical and chemical properties. However, effects of various tree species on composition and activity of soil microbiota and the relevant controls remain poorly understood. We evaluated the influence of tree species associated with two different mycorrhizal types, ectomycorrhiza (EcM)

Evaluation of fall‐seeded cover crops for grassland nesting waterfowl in eastern South Dakota
Cover crops are experiencing a revival among Midwestern farmers, and we assessed their attractiveness and safety for nesting ducks in South Dakota. Nest success was markedly lower in cover crops than in perennial cover during both years of our study, including 2019 which was a best‐case scenario for cover crops, with extremely wet conditions delaying ...
