Recent plant photosynthate as a driver of ecological and evolutionary processes
Timeline of key eco‐evolutionary outcomes arising from belowground allocation of recent plant photosynthate from shoots. Summary Plants rapidly allocate carbon from photosynthesis belowground via root exudates and root‐associated microorganisms. Here we synthesise recent evidence of our understanding of the consequences of this ‘fast’ pathway of recent

Mutations in RAM1 and RAD1 have different effects on arbuscule development in Lotus japonicus. Summary Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM), a symbiosis between plants and Glomeromycotan fungi is based on the exchange of nutrients, which majorly occurs between fungal tree‐shaped arbuscules and root cortex cells.

Effect of Arbuscular Mycorrhiza and Kokazolla Fertilizer on Physiological Parameters and Production Components of Purple Maize (Zea mays L.) [PDF]
The production of purple maize was essential to maintain the soil fertility development without environmental impact. The arbuscular mycorrhiza and kokazolla fertilizer are biological and organic material applications in the field.

The phylogenetically conserved trade‐off between the investment in root hairs and mycorrhization formation. Summary Plants take up nutrients from the soil while investing in absorptive root surface or mycorrhizal partners. Root hairs – a major structure for nutrient uptake and cheap to build – increase the absorptive root surface.

Summary Boreal forests store a large portion of global terrestrial carbon, primarily in soils, yet their sensitivity to environmental changes remains uncertain. Disturbance is one major agent of change, with dominance shifting from wildfire to forest management over the past century.

Trait‐based plant ecology: some history and some future
Schematic of plant species range boundaries, some mechanisms that might set them, and some traits that might explain them. Summary Since around the year 2000, trait‐based ecology has become self‐aware as a strand of research within ecology. How did this happen? What is trait‐based ecology now? And where might it go in future?

Yellow‐cedar has experienced widespread decline as climate change reduces the snowpack that insulates its roots, but the mechanism of injury is unknown. We tested two competing hypotheses in roots of four conifers: loss of xylem conductivity from freeze‐thaw embolism, or loss of radial conductivity from direct freezing injury that forms cortical ...

ploughings effect upon mycorrhiza: A General review of the influence tillage have on the life conditions of mycorrhiza [PDF]
Our society relies mainly on agriculture, to provide enough food for our population. The currently growing population and increasing meat consumption causes an intensification of agricultural practices, which has a straining effect on the soil.

Disruption of Fatty Acid Desaturase Gene Alters Aphid Resistance and Volatile Emissions in Sorghum
ABSTRACT Jasmonic acid (JA)‐deficient msd3 sorghum mutants exhibit contrasting resistance phenotypes against sugarcane aphids (SCA; Melanaphis sacchari), which promotes aphid settling at early time points while providing antibiosis‐mediated resistance at later stages. Here we investigated the physiological, hormonal, and metabolic mechanisms underlying
