Global population growth poses a threat to food security in an era of increased ecosystem
degradation, climate change, soil erosion, and biodiversity loss. In this context, harnessing …

Both biotic and abiotic stresses are major constrains to agricultural production. Under stress
conditions, plant growth is affected by a number of factors such as hormonal and nutritional …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are plant symbionts that promote plant growth and
provide important plant and ecosystem functions. These abilities have great economical …

Zinc (Zn) deficiency can severely inhibit plant growth, yield, and enzymatic activities. Zn
plays a vital role in various enzymatic activities in plants. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) …

Inoculation of soil with living microbes or propagules has grown in interest and in application
due to the modification/degradation of soil systems (including native microbial communities) …

Root systems of most land plants form arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbioses in the field,
and these contribute to nutrient uptake. AM roots have two pathways for nutrient absorption …

The beneficial effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi on plant performance and soil
health are essential for the sustainable management of agricultural ecosystems …

Substantial amounts of nutrients are lost from soils via leaching and as gaseous emissions.
These losses can be environmentally damaging and expensive in terms of lost agricultural …

Most plant species can form symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMFs), which may
enhance the host plant's acquisition of soil nutrients. In contrast to phosphorus nutrition, the …

Biochar and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can promote plant growth, improve soil
properties, and maintain microbial activity. The effects of biochar and AMF on plant growth …
