- Intercropping with legume for agroecological cropping systems: Complementarity and facilitation processes and the importance of soil microorganisms. A review (2017, background): “…legume and the cereal benefit from (i) improved soil stability thanks to the binding action of the mycelial network and the secretion of glomalin (Rillig et al., 2002, 2010); (ii) reduced need for fertilizers, since the growth of AM dramatically increases the volume of soil explored for…”
- Microplastic fiber and drought effects on plants and soil are only slightly modified by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (2020, methodology): “…substrate, we used a local soil with sandy loam texture (Albic Luvisol following FAO classification; 74% sand, 18% silt, 8% clay), 6.9 mg/100 g P (calcium-acetate-lactate), 5.0 mg/100 g K (calcium-acetate-lactate), 0.12% total N and 1.87% total C content and a soil pH of 7.1 (Rillig et al., 2010).”
- Plant type differently promote the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi biodiversity in the rhizosphere after revegetation of a degraded, semiarid land (2010, background): “It has been showed that extraradical hyphae contribute to the formation and maintenance of soil aggregates (Bedini et al., 2009; Rillig et al., 2010) through the exudation of glomalin, a glycoprotein that acts as a glue-like agent for soil particles (Wright and Anderson, 2000).”
- Do arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi stabilize litter‐derived carbon in soil? (2016, methodology): “This is the same site from which the soil inside the cores originated and soil from there has previously been used in experiments in our laboratory (Rillig et al. 2010).”
