美国和巴西研究人员近日发表综述研究,提出利用微生物菌群改良月球和火星土壤的方案。1研究指出,月球和火星土壤严重缺乏氮、钾和磷等植物生长所需的关键营养元素,1而丛枝菌根真菌(AMF)等有益微生物可通过扩展植物根系、增强营养吸收效率,帮助植物适应太空中的恶劣环境条件,从而使在这些星球上种植作物成为可能。1
这项综述研究已发表在《Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences》期刊2026年第13卷。1研究团队包括Jéssica Carneiro Oliveira、Rafael Loureiro、Andrew Palmer和Camila Maistro Patreze等人。1研究强调,Trichoderma和各种AMF(Glomeromycota)等真菌具有缓解非生物胁迫、动员营养元素的能力。1研究人员指出,后续工作需要在实际月球和火星土壤样本上进行验证测试,而非仅依赖模拟材料进行研究。1
Researchers from the United States and Brazil have published a comprehensive review exploring how beneficial fungi might transform nutrient-poor lunar and Martian soil into viable growing medium for crops.1 The study, published in Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences Volume 13 in 2026, examines how arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and other microorganisms could make space agriculture feasible by extending plant root systems, improving nutrient absorption efficiency, and helping plants withstand harsh environmental conditions.1
Lunar and Martian soils lack essential nutrients such as nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus that plants require to thrive.1 The research highlights that fungi including Trichoderma and various AMF species belonging to Glomeromycota possess the capacity to mitigate abiotic stress and mobilize nutrient elements in these challenging environments.1 Although arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi have been applied to botanical research since the mid-nineteenth century, the authors stress the necessity of conducting further testing on actual lunar and Martian soil samples rather than relying solely on simulated materials.1
