Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and their Value for Ecosystem Management

, 2014
Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) are a group of obligate biotrophs, to the extent that they must develop a close symbiotic association with the roots of a living host plant in order to grow and complete their life cycle [1]. The term “mycorrhiza” literally derives from the Greek mykes and rhiza, meaning fungus and root, respectively.

Consistent root microbiomes across contrasting habitats in a wild perennial vine

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Communities of bacteria and fungi associated with the roots are similar across diverse habitats in a wild plant. Abstract While we are beginning to understand that the plant microbiome is important for plant health, we still lack information about how plant microbiomes are shaped across environments and how they influence plant performance, in ...

Underground allies: Mycorrhizal flexibility facilitates orchid occurrence in post‐mining landscapes

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Epipactis helleborine associates with largely habitat‐specific fungal communities, with limited overlap between mining and woodland sites, yet maintains comparable genetic diversity across habitats. These results highlight the role of mycorrhizal flexibility in enabling habitat shifts and expanding ecological niches in human‐altered landscapes ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis of Acer cinerascens and effects of season variation on some rhizosphere (Case study: Bazoft, Chaharmahal-o-Bakhtiari) [PDF]

مجله جنگل ایران, 2011
Arbuscular mycorrhizas fungi (AM) are the most important microorganisms of soil having an important role in soil fertility. The symbiosis rate between AM and plants are different based on specific physiological characteristics and morphological root ...

Field‐grown coastal dune plants exhibit similar survival, growth, and biomass in recycled glass substrate and natural beach sand

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...

Black mangrove growth and root architecture in recycled glass sand: testing a new substrate for coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
As coastal regions experience accelerating land loss, artificial substrates may be useful in restoration efforts to replenish sediment and facilitate plant colonization. Recycled glass sand is a potential artificial substrate for marsh building due to its sustainability, availability, and similarity to natural substrates.

Impacts of reclamation approaches on plant establishment in an arid environment during copper mine revegetation

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Revegetation using native vegetation is a commonly used technique to reclaim landscapes degraded by mining activities. Revegetation efforts in the arid Southwestern United States face physical, geochemical, hydrological, and biological challenges unique to drylands.

Soil inoculation enhances early‐phase reintroduction success in two rare plant species

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Reintroduction for conservation is an important measure to restore populations of vulnerable plant species. However, reintroduction success rates are relatively low. Inoculating reintroduced plants with facilitative microorganisms from native populations may enhance their performance.

Limited restoration of plant microbiomes: insights from fungal assemblages of a peatland dominant

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Plants are not solitary organisms; they host diverse and largely unexplored microbiomes that shape their health, adaptability, and ecosystem roles. Recent environmental sequencing findings have revealed that each plant species harbors a unique fungal assemblage.
