Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...

Soil microbial biomass in organic farming system. [PDF]
Agricultural production systems have to combine management practices in order to sustain soil's profitability and quality. Organic farming is gaining worldwide acceptance and has been expanding at an annual rate of 20% in the last decade, accounting for ...

Abstract Soil microbial carbon‐use efficiency (CUE) and biomass turnover have been identified as important drivers of biogeochemical processes; however, we lack a comprehensive understanding of the factors driving them. Here, we tested how multifactorial carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) amendments affect microbial CUE and biomass turnover ...

Chemical fumigation and biofumigation are used to reduce soil-borne diseases in potato crop production systems. However, soil fumigation may impact non-targeted soil microorganisms, consequently altering essential soil processes.

Summary of soil organic carbon (SOC) responses to contrasting organic grain management systems after three years. SOC stocks increased across soil depths (0–60 cm) relative to baseline conditions, while active carbon fractions (POXC, WEOC, and MBC) in the surface soil layer responded to differences in cropping system management strategies.

Electrolysis‐treated biosolids enhance wheat growth and alter soil health parameters
Abstract Biosolid‐based fertilizers can benefit agriculture by supporting circular nutrient economies, reducing fertilizer costs, and minimizing environmental impacts compared to inorganic fertilizers. A 125‐day greenhouse experiment was conducted to assess the effects of electrolysis‐treated biosolids on wheat (Triticum aestivum) growth and soil ...

Quantifying the Contribution of Sediment Load to Soil Detachment Rate by Sediment-Laden Rill Flow
Sediment load changes with downslope distance during rill erosion process, and thus quantifying the potential contribution of sediment load on soil detachment rate is essential to accurately model the rill erosion process.

Comparison of methods to quantify soil microbial biomass carbon
Soil microorganism biomass is an important soil quality indicator. The microbial biomass of soil was determined by killing and lysing the soil microbes by fumigation with chloroform, irradiation with gamma rays, or irradiation with microwaves.

Abstract Regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) has been increasingly adopted in California processing tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) systems as a strategy to reduce agricultural water use in water‐limited regions. While late‐season RDI can achieve substantial water savings with minimal yield penalties, its implications for soil health and microbial ...

The abundance and density of three common sycamore aphids increased under elevated CO2, although this was only statistically significant for Drepanosiphum platanoidis. The number of nymphs produced by individual D. platanoidis alates isolated in clip cages was not significantly affected, suggesting that population level response was not driven by ...
