• Efficacy of Biofertilizers: Challenges to Improve Crop Production (2016, background): “The solubilization process occurs mainly via the production of organic and inorganic acids and complexing agents (Gadd 2008 ) and it is faster than that of bacteria (Castro et al. 2000 ; Gadd 2008 ; Daghino et al. 2010 ).”
• Beneficial Soil Microorganisms, an Ecological Alternative for Soil Fertility Management (2011, background): “The capability to desorb Zn from soil colloids has been reported also for other microorganisms, including Bacillus and Pseudomonas and fungi of the genera Aspergillus and Penicillium (Castro et al. 2000).”
• Geomycology: biogeochemical transformations of rocks, minerals, metals and radionuclides by fungi, bioweathering and bioremediation. (2007, unknown): “There is even some evidence that several fungi can dissolve minerals and mobilize metals at higher pH values, and over a wider redox range, faster and more efficiently than bacteria (Gu et al. 1998; Castro et al. 2000; Burford et al. 2003a).”
