Fungi are an understudied, biotechnologically valuable group of organisms. Due to the
immense range of habitats that fungi inhabit, and the consequent need to compete against a …

Arbuscular mycorrhizae fungi (AMF) are a big player of the ecosystem which shows a major
concern over plant nutrition by providing access to the soil-derived nutrients. Naturally, an …

Urgent solutions to global climate change are needed. Ambitious tree‐planting initiatives,
many already underway, aim to sequester enormous quantities of carbon to partly …

The great majority of plants gain access to soil nutrients and enhance their performance
under stressful conditions through symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). The …

We previously reported on the strong symbiosis of AMF species (Rhizophagus irregularis
CD1) with the cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) which is grown worldwide. In current study, it …

Temperate and boreal forests are increasingly suffering from anthropic degradation.
Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) are symbionts with most temperate and boreal forest trees …

There is a direct link between the increasing human population and soil degradation that
raises current and future food security concerns. Soil amelioration using beneficial …

The coevolution of mycorrhizae with plants represents a major evolutionary adaptation to the
land environment. As a bioinoculant, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) play a beneficial …

The soil microbial community is a key indicator to evaluate the effectiveness of vegetation
restoration in degraded ecosystems. However, few studies have simultaneously compared …
