Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi alleviate elevated temperature and nitrogen deposition- induced warming potential by reducing soil N2O emissions in a temperate meadow

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is one of the most important greenhouse gases and has the potential to aggravate global warming. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi form mutualistic associations with most terrestrial plants, which can help plant nitrogen (N) uptake ...

Landscape-scale mapping of soil fungal distribution: proposing a new NGS-based approach

Scientific Reports, 2023
Soil fungi play an indispensable role in the functioning of terrestrial habitats. Most landscape-scale studies of soil fungal diversity try to identify the fungal taxa present at a study site and define the relationships between their abundance and ...

Saprotrophic soil fungi to improve phosphorus solubilisation and release. In vitro abilities of several species [PDF]

, 2017
Modern agriculture is dependent on phosphate rock (PR), which is a nonrenewable resource. Improvement of phosphorus (P) availability for crops in agricultural soils represents a key strategy to slow down the depletion of PR. The aim of this study was to

Trace elements and C and N isotope composition in two mushroom species from a mine-spill contaminated site [PDF]

, 2020
Fungi play a key role in the functioning of soil in terrestrial ecosystems, and in particular in the remediation of degraded soils. The contribution of fungi to carbon and nutrient cycles, along with their capability to mobilise soil trace elements, is

Roles of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi on Soil Fertility: Contribution in the Improvement of Physical, Chemical, and Biological Properties of the Soil

Frontiers in Fungal Biology, 2022
Many of the world's soils are experiencing degradation at an alarming rate. Climate change and some agricultural management practices, such as tillage and excessive use of chemicals, have all contributed to the degradation of soil fertility.

Rare Taxa Drive the Response of Soil Fungal Guilds to Soil Salinization in the Taklamakan Desert

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Salinization poses great threats to soil fungal communities that would cause the losses of ecosystems services. Soil fungal communities are composed of different functional guilds such as saprotrophic, symbiotrophic, and pathotrophic fungi, and each ...

Impact of basidiomycete fungi on the wettability of soil contaminated with a hydrophobic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon [PDF]

, 2006
Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) present a challenge to bioremediation because they are hydrophobic, thus influencing the water availability and repellency of soil.
