Global challenges such as soil degradation and water scarcity necessitate sustainable agricultural practices, particularly in regions where saline is increasingly used for irrigation. This study investigates the effects of four compost treatments, including surface-applied mulch (MC), Johnson–Su biologically active incorporated into (JCI), (MCI), no control (NC), on fertility, microbial activity, Capsicum annuum (chili pepper) growth. Greenhouse experiments were conducted using from two different sites (New Mexico State University’s (NMSU) research plots field-testing site at Brackish Groundwater National Desalination Research Facility (BGNDRF) Alamogordo, New Mexico) irrigation salinities (brackish ~3000 µS/cm ~800 µS/cm). The treatment demonstrated superior performance, due to its high organic matter (41.5%), nitrate (NO3−) content (82.5 mg/kg), phosphorus availability (193.1 mg/kg). In JCI-treated soils, biomass increased by 40%, total carbon reached 64.69 g/m2 compared 64.7 NC. Plant growth parameters, chlorophyll content, root length, wet biomass, improved substantially with JCI. For instance, JCI plant height 20% 30% NC treatments. also effectively mitigated salinity, reducing Na+ accumulation 60% Cl− 70% while enhancing retention structure. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) revealed a distinct clustering demonstrating ability increase nutrient minimize salinity stress. These results indicate that properties, fungi-rich compost, are critical providing an effective, environmentally resilient approach fertility supporting crop production under brackish groundwater irrigation, facing freshwater scarcity.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) play a pivotal role in sustainable agriculture by enhancing nutrient efficiency and reducing the dependence on synthetic fertilizers. Developing these sustainable, effective products requires knowledge of target plant its associated microbial communities production landscape interest. This study focused AMF populations with Tir wheat six main locations Türkiye’s Van Lake Basin. The Erçek-Özalp-Saray region exhibited highest organic matter values.

Soil fertility is essential for plant growth, but nutrient immobilization can lead to deficiencies. Although chemical fertilizers address these issues, they pose environmental risks. Myco-fertilizers form symbiotic relationships with plants, extending the root network and enhancing absorption. They improve soil structure, cycling enhance resilience against pathogens. Research indicates that myco-fertilizers significantly reduce agriculture's impact by limiting runoff degradation. This book chapter explores use of in agriculture, focusing on their role cycling. It also emphasizes how need fertility. Incorporating into farming systems offers a path towards more eco-friendly agricultural practices, ensuring food security. The adoption key element sustainable contributing overall health sustainability.

Botryosphaeria dieback, a significant grapevine trunk disease (GTD) caused by various pathogens, represents serious threat to viticulture. Biocontrol emerges as promising sustainable alternative chemical control, aligning toward environmentally friendly viticultural practices. This study evaluated the in vitro, vivo, and situ biocontrol potential of Chilean native bacteria isolated from wild flora endophytic communities against Neofusicoccum parvum. In vitro assays screened 15 bacterial strains at 10, 22, 30 °C, identifying four Pseudomonas with >30% mycelial growth inhibition. diffusible agar double plate assays, plant growth-promoting AMCR2b GcR15a, which were flora, achieved inhibition N. parvum growth, reductions up ~50% (diffusible agar) ~46% (double plate). vivo experiments on cuttings revealed that GcR15a inhibited (17-90%); younger grapevines (1-5 years) more susceptible trials using Vitis vinifera L. cv. Cabernet Sauvignon Blanc demonstrated higher fungal susceptibility Blanc. These results highlight sp. be effective agents GTDs wide range temperatures, contributing
