Microbes accompany plants throughout their entire lifecycles, from seeds to ripe fruits. Plant–
microbe interactions have long been a focus of research in many subdisciplines, leading to …

Many different experimental approaches have been applied to elaborate and study the
beneficial interactions between soil bacteria and plants. Some of these methods focus on …

To identify effective ways of increasing the yield of crops grown in nutrient-poor calcareous
soils, the combined effects of biochar addition and inoculation with plant growth promoting …

The rhizosphere is the area around the plant root where a large population of
microorganisms lives under the influence of chemicals secreted by plant roots. The …

The application of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), plant growth promoting rhizobacteria
(PGPR) and compost (C) is a biological approach to boost growth of plants. The aim of the …

The application of composted straw in conventional rice cultivation patterns can enhance
soil organic carbon (SOC); however, it increases methane (CH 4) emission, thereby …

To support the search for alternate chemical-free strategies to enhance plant growth and
control plant diseases, we present an overview of the potential use of Biochar (BC) a product …

Inoculation of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) or biochar (BC) application can improve
photosynthesis and promote plant growth under saline‐alkali stress. However, little is known …

Increasing feeding mouths are the vital element of increased food production and demand.
The required resources (ie land, water and nutrients) to produce food are limited and …

It is commonly known that arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculation may modulate
several soil health quality indicators. In contrast, their role in altering the rhizosphere to …
