Opening the black box: in situ imaging of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal structures in soil using synchrotron‐based micro‐CT

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) contribute to plant nutrient and water uptake via their extraradical hyphal networks. However, in situ methodologies to quantify architectural and morphological traits of these networks in soil are largely lacking, limiting our understanding of AMF‐mediated resource transport.

Partner control in arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis

, 2021
The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis is the most widespread symbiotic association between land plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi belonging to Glomeromycotina subphylum. This mutualistic association can have a range of benefits for the plant, such as increased access to mineral nutrients (especially phosphate and nitrogen) and water in the ...

Functional complementarity in the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis [PDF]

New Phytologist, 2000
The causes and consequences of biodiversity are central themes in ecology. Perhaps one reason for much of the current interest in biodiversity is the belief that the loss of species (by extinction) or their gain (by invasion) will significantly influence ecosystem function. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are components of most terrestrial ecosystems

First Tetraploa Genome and Multi‐Omics Analysis Reveal Key Plant‐Microbe‐Soil Interactions for Salt Tolerance and Yield Improvement of Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salinity is a major threat to global agricultural productivity of staple crops such as wheat. Although microbial‐based solutions hold promise for alleviating salinity stress, practical implementation is hindered by insufficient mechanistic characterization of bioinoculants and their interactions with plants.

Circular RNAs in Lotus japonicus Responses to Nutrient Supply and Mesorhizobium Symbiosis

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Symbiotic interactions between legumes and rhizobia enable nitrogen fixation under low nutrient conditions. The establishment and function of symbiotic interactions require coordinated changes in gene expression in both the host and the microbe. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous gene‐specific molecules that can regulate transcription and

Conservation of Genes Required for Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions®
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis is an ancient association that played a key role in the adaptation of plants to terrestrial environments. Originating over 400 million years ago at the dawn of land plants, this interaction depends on a core set of conserved genes that enables hosts to establish and maintain symbiotic relationships with AM fungi ...

A trait-based root acquisition-defence-decomposition framework in angiosperm tree species

Nature Communications
To adapt to the complex belowground environment, plants make trade-offs between root resource acquisition and defence ability. This includes forming partnerships with different types of root associating microorganisms, such as arbuscular mycorrhizal and ...

THE INTEGRATION OF AMF INOCULANTS, GREEN MANURE AND ORGANO-MINERAL FERTILIZATION, IN BANANA PLANTATIONS ON CALCIC HAPLIC PHAEOZEMS

Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems, 2020
Background. Banana plants require large amounts of nutrients but fertilizer price is restrictive for many farmers, so it is important to develop technologies that support the productivity of banana crops relying on local nutrient sources by enhancing ...

Phytohormone production by the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Rhizophagus irregularis.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis is a mutualistic interaction between most land plants and fungi of the glomeromycotina subphylum. The initiation, development and regulation of this symbiosis involve numerous signalling events between and within the ...

Physiology and Transcriptomics Reveal Divergent Strategies of Mycorrhiza‐Mediated Drought Adaptation in Poplar

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mycorrhizal symbiosis shapes plant growth and stress resilience. Here, we compared physiological and molecular responses of poplars (P. x canescens) colonised by Paxillus involutus (Pi) or Cenococcum geophilum (Cg) under control conditions, drought stress and recovery.
