Secret lifestyles of pyrophilous fungi in the genus Sphaerosporella. [PDF]
Am J Bot, 2020 Premise Pyrophilous fungi form aboveground fruiting structures (ascocarps) following wildfires, but their ecology, natural history, and life cycles in the absence of wildfires are largely unknown. Sphaerosporella is considered to be pyrophilous. This study explores Sphaerosporella ascocarp appearance following a rare 2016 wildfire in the Great Smoky ...

Acidified Blue Ink-staining Procedure for the Observation of Fungal Structures Inside Roots of Two Disparate Plant Lineages [PDF]
Bio-Protocol, 2020 Identifying microscopic mycorrhizal fungal structures in roots, i.e., hyphae, vesicles and arbuscules, requires root staining procedures that are often time consuming and involves chemicals known to present health risks from exposure.

Pigeon Pea and Cowpea-Based Cropping Systems Improve Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungal Colonisation of Subsequent Maize on the Alfisols in Central Malawi. [PDF]
Int J Microbiol, 2017 Mycorrhizal associations contribute to the sustainability of crop production systems through their roles in nutrient cycling and other benefits in the soil‐plant ecosystems. A two‐year study was conducted on the Alfisols of Lilongwe and Dowa districts, Central Malawi, to assess the vesicular‐arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungal colonisation levels in ...

Symbiotic and synergistic efficacy of endomycorrhizae with Dendrocalamus strictus L. [PDF]
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2011 The present investigation was undertaken to find out efficient strains of arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM fungi) alone or in combinations with Trichoderma viride for inoculation Dendrocalamus strictus L. seedlings. The inoculated seedlings showed good response

Cell wall remodeling in mycorrhizal symbiosis: a way towards biotrophism [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 Cell walls are deeply involved in the molecular talk between partners during plant and microbe interactions, and their role in mycorrhizae, i.e., the widespread symbiotic associations established between plant roots and soil fungi, has been investigated ...

Potentiality of Using Mycorrhizae and Pseudomonas fluorescens in Reducing the Effect of Water Shortage on Broccoli Plants [PDF]
Arab Universities Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2021 Accelerating global warming and water scarcity and improving water use efficiency are considered essential factors for achieving adequate crop development and productivity. Therefore, the authors targeted the use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and
