A review on microbe–mineral transformations and their impact on plant growth

Soil microorganisms are crucial partners that help plants access nutrients locked in soil minerals. Bacteria and fungi produce special acids and molecules that dissolve minerals, making nutrients like phosphorus, iron, and zinc available for plant roots to absorb. This natural process reduces the need for chemical fertilizers and helps plants grow stronger while cleaning up contaminated soils.

Emerging Role of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi in Sustainable Agriculture: From Biology to Field Application

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are microscopic fungi that naturally partner with plant roots to help them grow stronger and healthier. These fungi can improve crop productivity without chemical fertilizers by helping plants absorb water and nutrients, resist drought and salty soils, and fight off diseases. Scientists are now developing commercial products containing these beneficial fungi to help farmers grow crops more sustainably and organically.

Development and Transfer of Microbial Agrobiotechnologies in Contrasting Agrosystems: Experience of Kazakhstan and China

Microbial consortia—communities of beneficial microorganisms—offer promising solutions to modern agriculture’s challenges by enhancing plant growth, improving stress tolerance, and restoring soil health. China has successfully integrated these microbial products into farming through strong government support and research infrastructure, while Kazakhstan has the scientific knowledge but faces funding and implementation challenges. This comparative study shows that adopting these technologies requires both scientific advancement and practical support systems tailored to each country’s specific needs.
