A new genus, Desertispora, and a new species, Diversispora sabulosa, in the family Diversisporaceae (order Diversisporales, subphylum Glomeromycotina) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Phylogenetic analyses of sequences of the SSU-ITS-LSU nrDNA segment and the RPB1 gene showed that the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus originally described as Diversispora omaniana does not belong to the genus Diversispora, but represents a separate clade ...

Mycorrhizal identity of neighbouring trees shapes seedling survival and plant–soil feedbacks through trait and light interactions

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant–soil feedbacks (PSF) play a central role in determining forest community dynamics, with trees associated with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) often experiencing negative PSFs, while those associated with ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) experience positive PSFs ...

Single nucleus genome sequencing reveals high similarity among nuclei of an endomycorrhizal fungus.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
Nuclei of arbuscular endomycorrhizal fungi have been described as highly diverse due to their asexual nature and absence of a single cell stage with only one nucleus. This has raised fundamental questions concerning speciation, selection and transmission

Do interactions between plant roots and the rhizosphere affect parasitoid behaviour? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Multitrophic interactions are powerful forces shaping the structure of living communities. Plants encounter a great diversity of organisms in their environment: some of these interactions are beneficial (e.g. symbiotic fungi and insect pollinators) while

Nitrogen deposition does not exacerbate phosphorus limitation of rhizosphere microbes in subalpine forests

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The stoichiometric imbalance caused by nitrogen (N) deposition typically exacerbates phosphorus (P) limitation in plants. However, it remains unclear whether this effect extends to soil microbes, particularly those in the rhizosphere.

Local adaptation of aboveground herbivores towards plant phenotypes induced by soil biota [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Soil biota may trigger strong physiological responses in plants and consequently induce distinct phenotypes. Plant phenotype, in turn, has a strong impact on herbivore performance.

The impact of short‐term flooding on soil microbial communities, soil nitrogen and maize productivity in clay loam soils of Ohio, United States

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
A short‐term flood, implemented in a field experiment with sprinkler irrigation in maize production systems, increased soil moisture levels and reduced autoclaved citrate extractable protein, an indicator of soil biological health that reflects organically bound soil nitrogen, and also corresponded to greater differential abundance of soil bacterial ...

Phosphorus nutrition of ectomycorrhizal and arbuscular mycorrhizal tree seedlings from a lowland tropical rain forest in Korup National Park, Cameroon [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The relationship between mycorrhizal colonisation and phosphorus acquired by seedlings of the arbuscular mycorrhizal tree Oubanguia alata Bak f. (Scytopetalaceae) and the ectomycorrhizal tree Tetraberlinia moreliana Aubr.

Harvesting benefits: Exploring the effects of second‐best policies on enhancing soil organic carbon stocks in agriculture

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural subsidies can be an effective policy tool to enhance soil organic carbon sequestration. This paper assesses the effectiveness of a second‐best hypothetical policy which subsidizes additional canola hectares optimally for each soil zone in Saskatchewan in an effort to increase soil organic carbon.

The Effects of Arbuscular Mycorrhiza Fungi on Dry Matter and Concentrations of Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium in Berseem Clover, by Cadmium stress

open access: yesمجله آب و خاک, 2016
Introduction: Soil contaminations with heavy metals represent a potential risk to the biosphere and leads to increased concentration in ground and surface water. Therefore metals mobility in soil has been extensively studied in the last decades.
