Exogenous easily extractable glomalin-related soil protein promotes soil aggregation, relevant soil enzyme activities and plant growth in trifoliate orange

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2015
Studies on glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP) have focused on soil aggregation and fungal physiology, whereas it is not known how exogenous GRSP could positively impact on these processes, soil enzyme activity and plant growth. Easily extractable GRSP [

Hexosamines in Soil Aggregates [PDF]

Nature, 1963
RECENT experiments at this Station on water-stable soil aggregates in a Bridgehampton silt loam have indicated that quantity of soil organic matter is not a reliable index of efficiency in the formation and stabilization of aggregates1,2. These investigations involved soils in frames that had been in redtop–potato and red clover–potato rotations for a ...

Optimization of crop residue management practice to improve soil aggregation and mineral-associated organic carbon in a clay soil of Bangladesh

Waste Management Bulletin
Organic matter application is considered an important option to increase soil aggregate formation and mineral-associated organic carbon (MAOC) in soil. In south Asia, different conventional strategies of soil management are used to improve soil quality ...

The main physical properties of planosol in maize (Zea mays L.) cultivation under different long-term reduced tillage practices in the Baltic region

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2015
The impact of sustainable reduced tillage (RT) on the physical properties of soil is well documented worldwide; however, there is no precise information about the influence of long-term RT or no-till (NT) on the soils at the boundary for grain maize ...

The effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and Rhizophagus irregularis on soil microorganisms assessed by metatranscriptomics and metaproteomics

, 2019
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form symbioses with approximately 80% of plant species and potentially benefit their hosts (e.g. nutrient acquisition) and the soil environment (e.g. soil aggregation).

Effects of atrazine application on soil aggregates, soil organic carbon and glomalin-related soil protein

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2021
Atrazine is still widely used in China. Atrazine residue (1.86-1 100 mg/kg) in the soil has exceeded the allowable limit (1.0 mg/kg), affecting soil structure and soil aggregate composition.

Land use conversion to agriculture impacts biodiversity, erosion control, and key soil properties in an Andean watershed

Ecosphere, 2022
The conversion of natural vegetation to agricultural land uses in mountainous Andean landscapes threatens an array of key ecological processes and ecosystem services (ES). In protected areas and buffer regions that provide water to cities, it is critical
