In this Update, we review new findings about the roles of the arbuscular mycorrhizas
(mycorrhiza= fungus plus root) in plant growth and phosphorus (P) nutrition. We focus …

Soils represent a significant reservoir of biological diversity that underpins a broad range of
key processes and moderate ecosystem service provision. Our understanding of the role …

Our objective is to provide an optimistic strategy for reversing soil degradation by increasing
public and private research efforts to understand the role of soil biology, particularly …

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

Controversy has long surrounded the question of nutritional differences between crops
grown organically or using now-conventional methods, with studies dating back to the 1940s …

Several independent comparisons indicate regenerative farming practices enhance the
nutritional profiles of crops and livestock. Measurements from paired farms across the United …

Presently, the global biofertilizer market is expanding due to the rising acceptance of
efficient soil nutrient management practices such as the application of biofertilizers amongst …

The soil environment is essential to many ecosystem services which are primarily mediated
by microbial communities. Soil physical and chemical conditions are altered on local and …

Soil phosphorus (P) cycling in agroecosystems is highly complex, with many chemical,
physical, and biological processes affecting the availability of P to plants. Traditionally, P …

It is well understood that agricultural management influences arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM)
fungi, but there is controversy about whether farmers should manage for AM symbiosis. We …
