Experiences worldwide reveal that degraded lands restoration projects achieve little
success or fail. Hence, understanding the underlying causes and accordingly, devising …

Mining activities generally decrease topsoil and vegetation, reduce soil biodiversity, and
yield extremely harsh environmental conditions, which in turn limit natural revegetation and …

Growing interest in the concept of nature-based solutions (NBS) raises the question of its
applicability as a broadly-understood approach to resource management and spatial …

Much effort has been made to remediate the degraded mine lands that bring severe impacts
to the natural environments. However, it remains unclear what drives the recovery of …

Marine fungi on the whole remain understudied, especially in the highly diverse Southeast
Asian region. We investigated the fungal communities associated with the mangrove tree …

Productivity gradients in the boreal forest are largely determined by regional-scale changes
in soil conditions, and bacterial communities are likely to respond to these changes. Few …

Large-scale mining for oil extraction in the Canadian boreal forest has prompted the need to
assess the effectiveness of reclamation strategies on key biotic components of reconstructed …

The pioneering plant Pueraria phaseoloides had a strong modulation effect on arbuscular
mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) communities. Irrespective of geographical location, community …

The growing understanding that soil bacteria play a critical role in ecosystem servicing has
led to a number of large-scale biogeographical surveys of soil microbial diversity. However …

The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of selected mycorrhiza obtained in the urban
environment on growth, leaf gas exchange, and drought tolerance of containerized plants …
