Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in the Sub-Saharan Savannas of Benin an their association with yam (Dioscorea spp.) : potential of yam growth promotion and reduction of nematode infestation [PDF]
The arbuscular mycorrhiza is the most widely occurring and important microbial symbiosis for agricultural crops and well known to facilitate plant mineral nutrient uptake, particularly under conditions of P-limitation - as it is common in tropical ...

Sulfur Transfer through an Arbuscular Mycorrhiza [PDF]
Despite the importance of sulfur (S) for plant nutrition, the role of the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis in S uptake has received little attention. To address this issue, 35S-labeling experiments were performed on mycorrhizas of transformed carrot (Daucus carota) roots and Glomus intraradices grown monoxenically on bicompartmental petri dishes ...

Influence of mycorrhizal fungi on phytoremediating potential and yield of sunflower in Cd and Pb polluted soils [PDF]
The influence of mycorrhizal fungi in uptake of heavy metals, pollution response index and yield of sunflower in degraded soils were investigated. It was a greenhouse experiment with 2 arbuscular mycorrhizae (Glomus mosseae, Glomus intraradices) and a

Engineering Mycorrhizal Symbioses to Alter Plant Metabolism and Improve Crop Health
Creating sustainable bioeconomies for the 21st century relies on optimizing the use of biological resources to improve agricultural productivity and create new products. Arbuscular mycorrhizae (phylum Glomeromycota) form symbiotic relationships with over

Microbial ecology of the arbuscular mycorrhiza [PDF]
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi interact with a wide variety of organisms during all stages of their life. Some of these interactions such as grazing of the external mycelium are detrimental, while others including interactions with plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PG PR) promote mycorrhizal functioning.

Auxins as Signals in Arbuscular Mycorrhiza Formation [PDF]
Plant hormones such as auxin derivatives are likely signals during the establishment of an arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis. Although reports on auxin levels during AM in different plant species are contradictory, the contribution of auxins to the establishment of an AM symbiosis might be an important factor especially for the development of ...
