Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi communities and glomalin mediate particulate and mineral-associated organic carbon formation in grassland patches

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi stimulate particulate and mineral-associated organic carbon formation and stabilization through hyphae residue, glomalin-related soil proteins gluing, and mycelium entangling.

Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

Quantifying carbon allocation to mycorrhizal fungi by temperate forest tree species across a nitrogen availability gradient [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Terrestrial ecosystems make up the largest carbon pool with a major portion of that being forests. With carbon being a major concern due to global climate change, being able to make accurate models is increasingly important. Studies have shown that trees

Accu16S/AccuITS: Accurate and broadly applicable amplicon sequencing for absolute microbiome quantification

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Traditional 16S rRNA gene and Internal Transcribed Spacer region amplicon sequencing provides only relative abundance, often leading to biased ecological interpretations. To overcome this limitation, we developed Accu16S/AccuITS, an absolute quantification method for bacterial and fungal amplicons based on synthetic internal spike‐in DNA with known ...

Impacts of Biostimulants on Nitrous Oxide Emissions and the Soil Microbiome

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
Soil incubation experiment examining the influence of biostimulants on greenhouse gas emissions and the soil microbiome in fertilized soils. ABSTRACT Background Overapplication of nitrogenous fertilizer and enhanced microbial activity in agricultural soils are drivers of increasing greenhouse gas emissions.

Sewage Sludge and Cashew Bagasse Biochars Promote Changes in Selected Physical Attributes Related to the Structure of Degraded Dryland Soil

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
This study evaluated biochars from co‐pyrolysis of sewage sludge and cashew residues on physical quality of a degraded loamy sand soil. SPB applied at 20 Mg ha−1 reduced bulk density by 7.74%, whereas most porosity attributes were driven by soil reconsolidation rather than biochar. Aggregate stability varied with biochar type, with SPB promoting larger

Selecting Promising Soil Quality Indicators for Monitoring Soil Management Effects Based on 10 European Long‐Term Field Experiments

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Soil quality can be measured through soil quality indicators that reflect soil processes. Aim: The aim of this study was to (1) identify a limited set of soil quality indicators that are most sensitive to agricultural soil management and that are widely applicable regardless of pedo‐climatic conditions, and (2) link common ...
