The potential of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve soil organic carbon in agricultural ecosystems: A meta‐analytical approach

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 1016-1030, April 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) in agroecosystems is a key objective for enhancing agricultural sustainability and mitigating climate change. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can increase yield and provide several other ecosystem services.

Cacao grafting increases crop yield without compromising biodiversity

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 579-592, March 2025.
Grafting is a successful approach for rejuvenating old, unproductive cacao trees, enhancing smallholder income opportunities and thus reducing pressure for new deforestation‐based plantations. Grafting briefly reduced arthropod abundance and diversity, but recovered in a short time.

Rendimiento de cultivos de guisantes en diferentes suelos agrícolas

, 2023
The yield of pea plants (Pisum sativum cv. Lincoln) grown on 9 different soils of Granada has been studied to know the effectivity of the symbiosis established between native Rhizobium leguminosarum and the cultivar assayed. Results obtained have show high differences between the yields of plants grown in each of the soil assayed probably due to the ...

Balancing quality with quantity: A case study of UK bread wheat

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 6, Issue 5, Page 1000-1013, September 2024.
Increasing crop productivity is often proposed as a key goal for meeting the food security demands of a growing global population. However, achieving high crop yields alone without meeting end‐use quality requirements is counter to this objective and can lead to negative environmental and sustainability issues.

Opportunities and challenges for strawberry cultivation in urban food production systems

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 6, Issue 3, Page 611-621, May 2024.
Cultivation of strawberry plants in urban production systems, whether in green open‐air spaces or under some form of protected horticulture such as vertical farming, has demonstrated to be challenging to new farmers and businesses. Commercial strawberry producers have an advanced understanding of strawberry plant physiology, enabling them to grow the ...
