Harnessing Microbial Volatile Organic Compounds for Crop Protection: Scientific Discovery, Bridging Ecological Function and On‐Farm Application

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
This opinion article highlights how microbial VOCs can support sustainable crop protection and outlines the ecological, analytical and translational challenges that currently limit their field application. It proposes practical and technological pathways to bridge the gap between laboratory discoveries and on‐farm deployment.

Thermodynamic modelling of P availability: the case of intercropping rhizosphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Plants of chickpea and durum wheat were cultivated as sole-­‐crop and intercrop in a rhizobox deviceaccording to a substitutive design. Unplanted soil was used as a control treatment. The soil used was a noncarbonated Luvisol with a neutral pH.

Differential above‐ and belowground responses of mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) cultivars with diverse phenology to contrasting soil phosphorus distribution

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Deep placement of phosphorus (P) fertilizer significantly increases crop yield and nutrient uptake in rainfed cropping systems. However, genotypic differences in root system architecture (RSA) play an important role in response to P rates and placement strategies.

Could Organic Acids Be an Alternative to Sulfuric Acid for Improving the Fertilizer Value of Digestate Solid Fraction?

open access: yesCLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 53, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Phosphorus (P) recovery from biowaste is essential for improving nutrient recycling in agriculture. Acidification with sulfuric acid has proven effective in increasing the P availability of digestate solid fraction (DSF), but its use poses safety and regulatory concerns, especially in organic farming. This study evaluated the potential of five

Dynamics of rhizosphere properties and antioxidative responses in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under cadmium stress

open access: yes, 2014
In this study, we performed a rhizobox experiment to examine the dynamic changes in the rhizosphere properties and antioxidant enzyme responses of Triticum aestivum L. under three levels of cadmium stress.

Low phosphorus availability increases shoot boron concentration in canola and potato but not in wheat

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2018
A large proportion of global agricultural soils contain suboptimal available phosphorus (P) for the growth of many plant species. Boron (B) plays important roles in plant growth and development, but limited research has been conducted to study B uptake ...

Mineral acquisition from a different angle – how the root angle in cereals determines nutrient uptake

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 2, Page 576-586, October 2025.
Summary Plant roots are vital for absorbing soil resources and directly impact crop productivity. Because nutrients are unevenly distributed through soil layers, root system architecture (RSA) is a key trait influencing nutrient uptake. Shallow RSA can enhance access to surface nutrients, while steeper architectures help reach deeper nutrients.

A method for measuring hyphal nutrient and water uptake in mycorrhizal plants

open access: yes, 1991
A new system was designed that permits examination of long distance transport of water and nutrients through mycorrhizal hyphae without the architectural, nutritional, and physiological differences associated with comparing mycorrhizal and non ...

Multi-spectral imaging of rhizobox systems: New perspectives for the observation and discrimination of rhizosphere components

open access: yesPlant and Soil, 2008
In this issue of Plant and Soil Nakaji et al. (Plant Soil, this volume, 2008) report a novel approach for automatically identifying roots and other rhizosphere components in rhizosphere images acquired using a multi-spectral (visible—VIS- and near-infrared—NIR-) imaging system.
