The impact of stress on crop productivity and the ecosystem have been magnified by climate
changes and mispractices in the agriculture field. Soil microbiome is a diverse system …

The arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are significant fertility-promoting microbes in soils.
They enable soil fertility, soil-health and boost crop productivity. There are generalist and …

Many invasive plants have enhanced mutualistic arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal
associations, however, mechanisms underlying differences in AM fungal associations …

Fungi are important members of soil microbial communities in row-crop and grassland soils,
provide essential ecosystem services such as nutrient cycling, organic matter …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are keystone symbionts of agricultural soils but
agricultural intensification has negatively impacted AMF communities. Increasing crop …

Microbial ecology is the study of interactions among microbes in natural environments and
their roles in biogeochemical cycles, food web dynamics, and the evolution of life. Microbes …

Climate extremes pose enormous threats to natural ecosystems. Arbuscular mycorrhizal
(AM) fungi are key plant symbionts that can affect plant community dynamics and ecosystem …

The ecology of fungi lags behind that of plants and animals because most fungi are
microscopic and hidden in their substrates. Here, we address the basic ecological process …

Previous studies have revealed inconsistent correlations between fungal diversity and
plant/soil properties from local to global scales. Here, we investigated the internal …

The composition and structure of plant-root-associated fungal communities are determined
by local abiotic and biotic conditions. However, the relative influence and identity of …
