The potential of two alkali-tolerant, lignocellulolytic environmental enrichment cultures to improve the anaerobic fermentation of Ca(OH)2-pre-treated wheat straw was studied. The biomethane potential of pre-treated straw was 36% higher than that of...

Biotechnologist interest in extremophile microorganisms has increased in recent years. Alkaliphilic and alkali-tolerant fungi that resist alkaline pH are among these. Alkaline environments, both terrestrial and aquatic, can be created by nature or by...

Ore leaching constitutes a core step for achieving efficient utilization of mineral resources, primarily encompassing acid leaching and alkaline leaching methods. Currently, acid leaching technology has reached a high level of maturity and is widely...

Rhizosphere soil microorganisms are significant factors affecting plant growth, especially that of saline–alkali tolerant plants in the desert ecosystem. We performed high-throughput sequencing in order to identifying the fungal community struc...

As the global human population continues to increase, the use of saline–alkali land for food production is an important consideration for food security. In addition to breeding or cultivating salt-tolerant crop varieties, microorganisms are inc...

The saline–alkali soil environment profoundly influences the diversity and composition of soil microbial communities, reshaping their ecological network structures. As a vital staple crop, rice (Oryza sativa L.) plays a crucial role in global f...

Drought and salt stresses are critical environmental constraints affecting plant growth and development, and microorganisms can enhance plant tolerance to these abiotic stresses through complex mechanisms. This review systematically synthesizes the c...

Soil salinization has become an ecological and environmental problem that cannot be ignored. Tetraploid black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) is a leguminous tree with characteristics of drought and saline-alkali tolerance. Rhizosphere bacteria are...

Features of the biochemical adaptations of alkaliphilic fungi to exist in extreme environments could promote the production of active antibiotic compounds with the potential to control microorganisms, causing infections associated with health care. T...

The increasing salinization of cultivated soil worldwide has led to a significant reduction in maize production. Using saline–alkaline-tolerant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPR) in the rhizosphere can significantly improve the saline tolerance o...

Microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) has emerged as a research focus in concrete crack remediation due to its environmental compatibility and efficient mineralization capacity. The hypersaline conditions of seawater (average 35...

Soil salinization is a major abiotic stress factor that negatively impacts plant growth, development, and crop yield, severely limiting agricultural production and economic development. Cotton, a key cash crop, is commonly cultivated as a pioneer cro...

Planting salt-tolerant plants is an efficient method of biological improvement for saline–alkali land. However, few studies have examined the soil improvement effects of the rotation of the green manure plant sesbania and the grain crop sorghum...

The strain of Oceanobacillus picturae DY09, as a typical halophilic microorganism, possesses distinctive salt adaptation mechanisms that hold significant application value in the fields of agriculture, industry, and biomedicine. To deeply analyze the...

A search for the microorganisms responsible for the anaerobic degradation of osmoprotectants in soda lakes resulted in the isolation of a novel halophilic and alkalitolerant strain, designated Z-7514T. The cells were Gram-stain-negative and non-endos...

Saline and alkaline stresses limit plant growth and reduce crop yield. Soil salinization and alkalization seriously threaten the sustainable development of agriculture and the virtuous cycle of ecology. Biofertilizers made from plant growth−pro...

The utilization of symbiosis with beneficial microorganisms has considerable potential for increasing growth and resistance under abiotic stress. The endophytic root fungus Piriformospora indica has been shown to improve plant growth under salt and d...

Soil salinity adversely affects crop growth and development, leading to reduced soil fertility and agricultural productivity. The indigenous salt-tolerant plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), as a sustainable microbial resource, do not only p...

Before fermentation with hemicellulosic hydrolysate as a substrate, it is generally necessary to detoxify the toxic substances that are harmful to microorganism growth. Cyclic AMP receptor protein (CRP) is a global regulator, and mutation of its key...

Mining novel Streptomyces species from extreme environments provides a valuable strategy for the discovery of new antibiotics. Here, we report a strain of Streptomyces sp. HMX87T, which exhibits antimicrobial activity and was isolated from desert soi...

Cellulose represents the most abundant component of plant biomass on earth; it is degraded by cellulases, specific enzymes produced by microorganisms. However, cellulases of bacterial origin attract more interest due to their natural diversity and ab...

Soil microorganisms are important components of soil ecosystems, and their diversity plays an important role in maintaining their functional stability. Organic fertilizer is an important measure for improving soil fertility in agronomic practice. The...

The prolonged utilization of copper (Cu)-containing fungicides results in Cu accumulation and affects soil ecological health. Thus, a pot experiment was conducted using Citrus reticulata cv. Shatangju with five Cu levels (38, 108, 178, 318, and 388 m...
