The above ground growth of the plant is highly dependent on the belowground root system.
Rhizosphere is the zone of continuous interplay between plant roots and soil microbial …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) contribute predominantly to soil organic matter by
creating a sink demand for plant C and distributing to below-ground hyphal biomass. The …

The term “Glomalin” was originally used to describe a hypothetical gene product of
arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) that was assumed to be a nearly ubiquitous …

Global climate is undergoing significant changes due to extensive release of greenhouse
gases (GHGs) such as CO 2 and methane in the atmosphere. These gases are produced …

The symbiotic relationships between crop species and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF)
are crucial for plant health, productivity, and environmental sustainability. The roles of AMF …

In this commentary, we consider the novel results presented by Brown et al.(2017) in their
article in this Issue of Plant and Soil titled BThe rhizosheath–a potential trait for future …

Salinity is a major abiotic stress that can adversely affect plant growth, yield, other
physiological parameters, and soil health. Salinity stress on biomass production of salt …

The consequences of climate change urgently demand the reduction of atmospheric carbon,
including by sequestering carbon in soil. The glomalin-related soil proteins (GRSP) of …

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (AM) fungi form mutualistic symbiotic relationships with
approximately 80% of terrestrial plant species, while producing the glycoprotein glomalin as …

Definition Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are biotrophic symbionts forming close
