TL;DR: The ratio of SO42- to NO3- in acid rain is an important factor which could affect fine-root growth in subtropical forests of China, and structural equation modelling results showed that acid rain S/N ratio and pH had stronger direct effects on FRB than indirect effects via changed soil and fine root properties.

TL;DR: It is suggested that AM fungus inoculation improved salinity tolerance of Z. serrata, but the physiological mechanisms differed between leaves and roots.

TL;DR: Overall, the MDMS effectively controlled the negative impacts of crop planting on the environment, and simultaneously considered the economic benefits, which might assist managers in arriving at efficient scientific decisions toward the integrated management of small agricultural watersheds.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors conducted a field experiment at an abandoned mining site to investigate the efficacy of mineral-solubilizing microbial inoculants in restoring derelict mine ecosystems.

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated the long-term application of specific functional microorganisms for the remediation of abandoned mine sites in the field and revealed that mineral-solubilizing microbial inoculants significantly increased the soil ANF rate and SNF content.
