The peri-arbuscular membrane (PAM) mediates mutually-beneficial nutrient exchange between plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. Here the authors identify ARK1, a PAM-specific receptor-like kinase from rice that sustains AM symbiosis post ...

Cloning and characterisation of a maize carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase (ZmCCD1) and its involvement in the biosynthesis of apocarotenoids with various roles in mutualistic and parasitic interactions [PDF]
Colonisation of maize roots by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi leads to the accumulation of apocarotenoids (cyclohexenone and mycorradicin derivatives).

DLK2 regulates arbuscule hyphal branching during arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis.
D14 and KAI2 receptors enable plants to distinguish between strigolactones (SLs) and karrikins (KARs), respectively, in order to trigger appropriate environmental and developmental responses.

Plant Signaling and Metabolic Pathways Enabling Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis [PDF]
Plants have lived in close association with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi for over 400 million years. Today, this endosymbiosis occurs broadly in the plant kingdom where it has a pronounced impact on plant mineral nutrition. The symbiosis develops deep within the root cortex with minimal alterations in the external appearance of the colonized root;

Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis-mediated tomato tolerance to drought [PDF]
A multidisciplinary approach, involving eco-physiological, morphometric, biochemical and molecular analyses, has been used to study the impact of two different AM fungi, i.e. Funneliformis mosseae and Rhizophagus intraradices, on tomato response to water stress.

Most nurseries operating in Italy adopt high technologies and produce transplants that well suit and satisfy the grower’s need to produce high value crops. Mycorrhizas are discussed as a tool for improving and developing plant production in the nursery.

Mycorrhizas and biomass crops: opportunities for future sustainable development [PDF]
Central to soil health and plant productivity in natural ecosystems are in situ soil microbial communities, of which mycorrhizal fungi are an integral component, regulating nutrient transfer between plants and the surrounding soil via extensive mycelial ...

Arctic grasslands are intensively grazed. The common grass Avenella flexuosa is particularly common in grazed areas, but the mechanisms of its adaptation to grazing are not fully known. We tested whether the plasticity of arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis

•Plants form a mutualistic symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, which facilitates the acquisition of scarce minerals from the soil. In return, the host plants provide sugars and lipids to its fungal partner.

Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi greatly improve mineral uptake by host plants in nutrient‐depleted soil and can intracellularly colonize root cortex cells in the vast majority of higher plants.
