Alleviation of cadmium stress by arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis
International Journal of Phytoremediation, 2019Owing to the realization of the harmful effect of cadmium on the environment and plants and as the plants are sessile organisms, they need to increase the protective mechanisms to cope with Cd stress. Inoculation the plant with soil microbes at the place of their growing is an important strategy to support the plants against stresses.

The Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis
1997The term mycorrhiza is used to describe a broad range of mutualistic associations formed between plant roots and fungi. Such associations exist in the majority of land plant species and therefore in ecosystems throughout the world. A study of the occurrence of mycorrhizas in the British flora provides an example of their distribution; 80% of the ...

Preference, specificity and cheating in the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis
Trends in Plant Science, 2003Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbioses are mutualistic interactions between fungi and most plants. There is considerable interest in this symbiosis because of the strong nutritional benefits conferred to plants and its influence on plant diversity. Until recently, the symbiosis was assumed to be unspecific.

MOLECULAR AND CELLULAR ASPECTS OF THE ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZAL SYMBIOSIS
Annual Review of Plant Physiology and Plant Molecular Biology, 1999▪ Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizae are symbiotic associations formed between a wide range of plant species including angiosperms, gymnosperms, pteridophytes, and some bryophytes, and a limited range of fungi belonging to a single order, the Glomales.

Specificity in the Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis
2002Different arbuscular mycorrhizal (AMF) fungal taxa have a differential effect on the growth of co-existing plant species. This means that in order to fully understand the role of these fungi in plant communities, information is needed on whether the symbiosis is specific.

The arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis: an underground association
Trends in Plant Science, 1997Arbuscular mycorrhizas are symbiotic associations formed between zygomycetes (Order Glomales) and the roots of most terrestrial flowering plants. Existing in natural ecosystems throughout the world, the association creates an intimate link between plant roots and the soil, and plays a pivotal role in the acquisition of mineral nutrients. The ability of

Fungal and plant gene expression in arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis
Mycorrhiza, 2006Arbuscular mycorrhizas (AMs) are a unique example of symbiosis between two eukaryotes, soil fungi and plants. This association induces important physiological changes in each partner that lead to reciprocal benefits, mainly in nutrient supply. The symbiosis results from modifications in plant and fungal cell organization caused by specific changes in ...

Phosphate Transporters in Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis
2010In the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis the reciprocal exchange of nutrients results in a nutritional benefit for both symbionts. The fungus acquires carbon from plant and the plant obtains mineral nutrients from the fungus. While there is evidence for the transfer of phosphorus (P), nitrogen, zinc and copper, current data suggest that P is ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis recognition and specificity
1996Most species of plants are normally colonized by mycorrhizal fungi, but some plant taxa do not usually form them. Various mechanisms are responsible for signaling, recognition and avoidance of infection in AM fungi — plant symbiosis. These may be fungal and/or host mediated.

Molecular signaling in the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis
2014The establishment and the maintenance of a mutualistic arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) interaction are based on intense communications between the partners and within and between plant cells and organs. Legumes, which can in addition to the AM symbiosis undergo a symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing rhizobacteria, serve as model plants to study the signaling in ...
