| 1 | Arbuscular Mycorrhiza and Sustainable Agriculture显示文摘Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi(AMF)provide benefits to most crop species via enhanced nutrient uptake,increased drought and abiotic stress resistance,and reduced effects of pathogens and pests.Much remains unclear regarding the specific mechanisms influencing these processes,and the critical roles of AMF are often overlooked in planning agroecological systems.There is growing consensus,however,around the important roles AMF play in improving plant resilience and crop yield while also enhancing the functioning of soil microbial communities.Heterogeneous practices across all scales complicate the successful integration of AMF in agroecological systems.AMF symbioses with crops are passive,or stimulated by incorporation of crop wastes in soil,soil inoculation with AMF spores,or the planting inoculated of seeds.Here we suggest that AMF can have highest beneficial impacts in areas with low levels of agrochemical inputs.We argue that areas with intensive agrochemical inputs can also be made more sustainable with AMF enhancements. | Douglas A.Schaefer Heng Gui Peter E.Mortimer Jianchu Xu | 2021 | Circular Agricultural Systems2021，1，1： | 0 |
| 2 | Valorizing plastic waste by insect consumption显示文摘Insects first began evolving hundreds of millions of years ago,and aided by gut microbes,they have been consuming hydrocarbon polymers ever since.Few man-made plastic polymers are chemically novel,so it is reasonable that insect/microbe systems can be found or developed to degrade them rapidly.However,remediation of global plastic waste problems should involve more than just conversion into CO_(2).Some industryscale microbial enzymatic degradation of plastic polymers may yield valuable monomers,but the plastic waste starting material must be of uniform chemistry and clean.This adds cost to the process.Many insect species can be utilized for animal feed as well as human food.Some of these insects have the capability to degrade plastic polymers.However,valorizing plastic wastes by producing edible insects or useful frass has largely been overlooked.Here we assemble the current knowledge of plastic degradation rates by insects.In addition,we also show the first instance of insect degradation of polyurethane and the first identification and isolation of insect gut fungi as directly aiding insect degradation. | Sehroon Khan Yang Dong Sadia Nadir Douglas A.Schaefer Peter E.Mortimer Jianchu Xu Lei Ye Heng Gui Dhanushka N.Wanasinghe Gbadamassi G.O.Dossa Mingming Yu Jun Sheng | 2021 | Circular Agricultural Systems2021，1，1： | 0 |
