Journal ArticleDOI
Organic matter and water-stable aggregates in soils
Judith. Tisdall,J.M. Oades +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effectiveness of various binding agents at different stages in the structural organization of aggregates is described and forms the basis of a model which illustrates the architecture of an aggregate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stabilization of soil aggregates by the root systems of ryegrass.
Judith. Tisdall,J.M. Oades +1 more
TL;DR: The root system of ryegrass was more efficient than that of white clover in stabilizing aggregates of Lemnos loam because the hyphae were covered with a layer of amorphous material, probably polysaccharide, to which clay particles appear firmly attached.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fungal hyphae and structural stability of soil
TL;DR: In this article, a review describes the possible mechanisms by which fungal hyphae, especially those of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VA) fungi, bind microaggregates of soil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Possible role of soil microorganisms in aggregation in soils
TL;DR: In this paper, a review discusses the factors that affect VAM hyphae and their extracellular polysaccharides in soil, and the subsequent effect on stability of aggregates.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of crop rotation on aggregation in a red-brown earth
Judith. Tisdall,J.M. Oades +1 more
TL;DR: The authors showed that 50 years of crop rotations have decreased the stability of macroaggregates (> 250 µm diameter) of Urrbrae fine sandy loam and simultaneously decreased the lengths of roots and hyphae and the percentage total organic matter in the soil.
