After one year of cultivating in the same field, replanting is unsuccessful for the next 8–10 years due to the accumulation of allelochemicals, deterioration of soil properties, and disruptions in soil microbial communities. These factors severely impact plant growth, quality, and overall soil health. This review examines the causes and adverse effects of CCO in <em>R. glutinosa</em> cultivation and evaluates various strategies to mitigate them. CCO arise from complex interactions between the plant root system, soil properties, and microbial communities. A key contributor is the accumulation of phenolic acids in the rhizosphere, which alters soil physicochemical properties and promotes the proliferation of root pathogens, including fungi and root-knot nematodes. This creates a self-reinforcing cycle of soil degradation and plant stress, exacerbating CCO. Approaches such as variety selection, optimized crop rotation patterns, and the application of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria are discussed in the article. Additionally, soil disinfection techniques, including fumigation, organic amendments, flooding, and mulching, are reviewed for their potential to suppress pathogens and restore soil health. The role of biochar, compost, and beneficial microorganisms, applied individually or in combination, to alleviate CCO and improve soil conditions are also highlighted. This review aims to provide a theoretical framework and practical guidance for overcoming CCO in <em>R. glutinosa</em> cultivation, contributing to sustainable agricultural practices for this important medicinal crop.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":94356,"journal":{"name":"Soil & Environmental Health","volume":"3 2","pages":"Article 100144"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143619669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ITS sequencing analysis showed the presence of 6 families and 12 genera, with organic farming samples being significantly more diverse than conventional farming samples based on the number of taxa and Shannon H index. Both spore morphology and ITS sequencing data showed that the families Diversisporaceae and Glomeraceae were the most abundant among all the treatments. Compared to their respective conventional soils, the mean percent mycorrhizal inoculum potential was significantly higher for the organic soils under cucumber, with the root colonization being also higher for organic soils under citrus. A quick colonizer trap culture method was used to determine which AMF species colonized and established in the roots after 14 days. AMF species including <em>Rhizoglomus intraradices</em> and <em>Septoglomus viscosum</em> quickly infected cucumber, and could potentially be used as biofertilizer inocula.

Naturally occurring in low concentrations, Ge behaves similarly to Si and is often found in mineral particles rather than in dissolved form in soils and freshwaters. Its distribution in the environment is largely driven by weathering processes, where it replaces Si in silicate minerals, making it a valuable indicator of weathering intensity through Ge/Si ratios. In oceans, estuaries and lakes, Ge follows the Si cycle, especially in diatom-dominated systems. However, the emphasis on Ge/Si ratios has somewhat overshadowed direct studies on its independent geochemical cycling, mobility and potential ecological impacts. This has left gaps in understanding the unique aspects of Ge's behaviours in natural and polluted systems, both at the level of understanding laboratory-scale interactions (e.g., binding by natural organic matter, and iron oxyhydroxides) and data collection in environmental compartments (e.g., lack of data on methylated species). The measurement of Ge in the environment is technically challenging due to its low concentrations and the complexity of its chemical forms, which partially explains the lack of data and/or their poor quality.

This review details the basics of the hazards associated with two ubiquitous urban contaminants: Pb and PAHs. The literature on significant exposure pathways and potential bioavailability of these contaminants is discussed. Guidance and regulatory values for both Pb and PAHs are shown and vary widely. Soil concentrations of these contaminants are often exceed regulatory values. Data from studies on urban soils for contaminant concentrations and availability reduction are presented. Use of organic amendments including compost- and biosolids-based soil products, along with gardening in raised beds are acceptable practices for growing food in potentially-contaminated soils. Yield increases associated with their use has been reported. The feedstocks for these amendments are readily available in all urban areas. Because these amendments typically have lower concentrations of contaminants than urban soils, their use will decrease total concentrations of contaminants and has been shown to improve soil and ecosystem health. Bioaccessible fractions of contaminants may also be reduced. Thus, these amendments appear to be a way to safely and productively increase urban green space.
