Comparison and structure of fungal diversity in roots and rhizosphere soils of wild and reintroduced populations of three Paphiopedilum species

BMC Genomics
Mycorrhizal fungi play critical roles in the seed germination and the growth of orchid plants. The investigation of fungi, especially mycorrhizal fungi, associated with orchid roots is important for both the protection and sustainable utilization of the ...

A novel method based on high‐resolution imaging spectroscopy to predict fine‐root traits and the economics space of fresh tree roots

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Maps of the estimated root nitrogen concentration in the < 0.5‐mm‐diameter classes of 20 woody species based on the imaging spectroscopy using the shortwave infrared spectral region. Summary Tree fine‐root morphological, anatomical, and chemical traits are important to reflect belowground resource acquisition strategies to support tree growth, but ...

Yeast-mycorrhizae interaction as a strategy to improve tomato production

Lilloa
Inoculation with plant growth-promoting microorganisms such as bacteria, mycorrhizal fungi, and soil yeasts may play a promising role in sustainable plant production.

For colonization success, should hosts and microbes travel alone, together, or swap partners along the way?

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Experimental co‐introduction of duckweeds (Lemna japonica) and their microbiome in a common pond. Summary Microbiomes that enhance the performance of host plants are likely to be co‐introduced with their host during colonization because of their intimate association.

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.

Systemic acquired resistance: an emerging role for jasmonates in local signal biogenesis, translocation and distal signal decoding

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Jasmonate signalling underpins establishment of plant systemic acquired resistance (SAR). Activation of the hypersensitive response (HR) not only contains the pathogen but establishes broad spectrum resistance in unchallenged leaves. The strong burst of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species initiating the HR results in lipid peroxidation (illustrated by ...

Partial mycoheterotrophy: a common strategy in arbuscular mycorrhizal plants?

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Proposed autotrophy to mycoheterotrophy continuum among arbuscular mycorrhizal plants. Summary The vast majority of land plants transfer part of the organic carbon they produce by photosynthesis to arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi inside their root cells; the fungi in turn help plants to take up nutrients and water from the soil.

A review: Molecular identification of orchid mycorrhiza

Advances in Horticultural Science
Orchids are a diverse and widespread family of flowering plants, with over 25,000 known species and more than 100,000 hybrids and cultivars. Orchids are characterised by their often showy and highly specialised flowers and have unique and intricate ...

The root microlandscape of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

New Phytologist
SummaryUnderstanding the drivers of assemblages of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) is essential to leverage the benefits of AMF for plant growth and health. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are heterogeneously distributed in space even at small scale. We review the role of plant distribution in driving AMF assemblages (the passenger hypothesis), using a

Mycorrhiza‐induced resistance against Botrytis cinerea in tomato operates through the systemin signalling cascade

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Prosystemin expression in mycorrhizal plants and comparative analysis of prosystemin and mycorrhiza in induced resistance. Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi enhance plant resistance against necrotrophic fungi by priming jasmonic acid‐dependent defences.
