Fungal Traits Important for Soil Aggregation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Soil structure, the complex arrangement of soil into aggregates and pore spaces, is a key feature of soils and soil biota. Among them, filamentous saprobic fungi have well-documented effects on soil aggregation. However, it is unclear what properties, or

Soil microbiome indicators can predict crop growth response to large-scale inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

open access: yesNature Microbiology, 2023
Alternative solutions to mineral fertilizers and pesticides that reduce the environmental impact of agriculture are urgently needed. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can enhance plant nutrient uptake and reduce plant stress; yet, large-scale field ...

Immunomodulatory Effect of Flammulina rossica Fermentation Extract on Healthy and Immunosuppressed Mice

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
Flammulina rossica fermentation extract (FREP) was obtained by ethanol precipitation of the fermentation broth. The molecular weight of FREP is 28.52 kDa, and it mainly contains active ingredients such as polysaccharides, proteins, reducing sugars, and ...

Suitability of Mycorrhiza-Defective Rice and Its Progenitor for Studies on the Control of Nitrogen Loss in Paddy Fields via Arbuscular Mycorrhiza [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Employing mycorrhiza-defective mutants and their progenitors does not require inoculation or elimination of the resident microbial community in the experimental study of mycorrhizal soil ecology.

Mapping mycological ignorance – checklists and diversity patterns of fungi known for West Africa

open access: yesIMA Fungus, 2020
Scientific information about biodiversity distribution is indispensable for nature conservation and sustainable management of natural resources. For several groups of animals and plants, such data are available, but for fungi, especially in tropical ...

Soil organic matter dynamics mediated by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi – an updated conceptual framework

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2023
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi play an important role in soil organic matter (SOM) formation and stabilization. Previous studies have emphasized organic compounds produced by AM fungi as persistent binding agents for aggregate formation and SOM ...

Isotopic Analysis of Sporocarp Protein and Structural Material Improves Resolution of Fungal Carbon Sources [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Fungal acquisition of resources is difficult to assess in the field. To determine whether fungi received carbon from recent plant photosynthate, litter or soil-derived organic (C:N bonded) nitrogen, we examined differences in δ13C among bulk tissue ...

Elevated temperature and nitrogen deposition did not affect the impacts of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on soil carbon or nitrogen stocks in atemperate meadow

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are key players in the soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles; on the one hand, AM fungi have been influenced by global changes, while on the other hand, they are involved in shaping the future climate.

Symbiotic soil fungi enhance resistance and resilience of an experimental grassland to drought and nitrogen deposition

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, 2020
Ecosystem stability is threatened by multiple global change factors such as drought and elevated nitrogen deposition. Yet, it is still poorly understood whether soil organisms can buffer against such perturbations. Here we focus on arbuscular mycorrhizal

Differences in the activities of eight enzymes from ten soil fungi and their possible influences on the surface structure, functional groups, and element composition of soil colloids. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
How soil fungi function in soil carbon and nutrient cycling is not well understood by using fungal enzymatic differences and their interactions with soil colloids.
