Interactions of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, critical loads of nitrogen deposition, and shifts from native to invasive species in a southern California shrubland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Anthropogenic nitrogen (N) deposition and invasive species are causing declines in global biodiversity, and both factors impact the diversity and functioning of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi.

An integrated social and natural sciences case study for the reuse of organic wastes as soil amendments

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Reusing organic waste materials, such as animal manure, as soil amendments reduces water and fertiliser demand, contributing to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. However, organic wastes may contain contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), posing potential ecosystem and human health risks. Despite the importance of this issue, there is a lack

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

Considering Intra-individual Genetic Heterogeneity to Understand Biodiversity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In this chapter, I am concerned with the concept of Intra-individual Genetic Hetereogeneity (IGH) and its potential influence on biodiversity estimates. Definitions of biological individuality are often indirectly dependent on genetic sampling -and vice ...

Plant biostimulants and their potential role in achieving the United Nations sustainable development goals

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Plant biostimulants are substances that are obtained from a variety of sources and are applied in minute quantities to enhance plant growth and vigor. In this review we detail how the use of plant biostimulants may contribute to efforts to achieving a number of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Global change reshapes glomalin‐mediated soil carbon sequestration by influencing plant inputs

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Glomalin‐related soil protein (GRSP), a by‐product of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), plays a crucial role in stabilizing soil organic carbon (SOC). Global change factors (GCFs) such as elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), climate warming and anthropogenic ...

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 ...

Mycorrhiza‐induced alterations in the spatial structure of stands in a subtropical forest

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Spatial aggregation patterns represent snapshots of ecological processes that occurred over an extensive period. Such processes can shape both the conspecific and the heterospecific spatial structure of plants across woody habitats.

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.

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.
