With continued climate changes, soil drought stress has become the main limiting factor for
crop growth in arid and semi‐arid regions. A typical characteristic of drought stress is the …

Soil drought, an important abiotic stress, seriously inhibits plant growth and physiological
activities. However, arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in soil can enhance plant adaptability …

In the current study, an eco-friendly management technology to improve young carob
(Ceratonia siliqua L.) tree tolerance to water deficit was set up by using single or combined …

Arbuscular mycorrhizas enhance the drought tolerance of host plants through several
underlying mechanisms. Polyamines (PAs) are known to protect plant cells from the …

Irregular precipitation and drought caused an increase in tree mortality rates in multiple
forest biomes with alterations in both ecosystem services and carbon balance. Carob …

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 …

Root-hair growth and development regulated by soil microbes is associated with auxin. In
this background, we hypothesized that mycorrhizal fungal inoculation induces greater root …

A pot experiment was carried out to investigate the responses of leaf antioxidant enzyme
defense systems to an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF), Funneliformis mosseae, in …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can enhance drought tolerance in plants, whereas little
is known regarding AMF contribution to sucrose and proline metabolisms under drought …

Mycorrhizal hyphae have the functioning on water absorption from soil, while the information
regarding hyphal water absorption rate is not fully known. In this study, 37-μm nylon meshes …
