Bioprotection against Gaeumannomyces graminis in barley a comparison between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2012
Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici causes take-all disease, the most important root disease of cereal plants. Cereal plants are able to form a symbiotic association with soil-borne arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi which can provide bioprotection against ...

Effect of tillage and crop on arbuscular mycorrhiza [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Large-scale inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) is generally impractical in most regions and we have little understanding of the factors that determine inoculation success.

Plant biostimulants and their potential role in achieving the United Nations sustainable development goals

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Plant biostimulants are substances that are obtained from a variety of sources and are applied in minute quantities to enhance plant growth and vigor. In this review we detail how the use of plant biostimulants may contribute to efforts to achieving a number of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Responses of ectomycorrhizal fungi to changes in carbon and nutrient availability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi may receive 20% of the total C fixed by their host plants and are essential components of host nutrient acquisition. As a consequence of the vast physiological diversity that exists among ECM fungi, changes in community ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal community composition associated with two plant species in a grassland ecosystem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are biotrophic symbionts colonizing about two-thirds of land plant species and found in all ecosystems. They are of major importance in plant nutrient supply and their diversity is suggested to be an important ...

A step into the shadows: Evolutionary shifts in fruit structure and dispersal strategies in Asian mycoheterotrophic Ericaceae

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
This study examines how the fruits of non‐photosynthetic forest plants in the Monotropoideae (Ericaceae) have evolved into the diversity observed today. By analyzing four Asian species, we identified a shift from dry, dehiscent fruits that release seeds into the air to fleshy, berry‐like fruits adapted for animal dispersal.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi increase grain yields: a meta-analysis.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2018
Increasing grain yields of food cereal crops is a major goal in future sustainable agriculture. We quantitatively analyzed the potential role of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in enhancing grain yields of seven cereal crops with exceptional importance

Development and adoption of Kernza—A perennial grain crop for sustainable agriculture

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Annual cereal grains account for ~50% of human food calories, but cultivation of these crops has resulted in major environmental and social issues worldwide. For nearly three decades, researchers have been breeding intermediate wheatgrass—a perennial cool‐season grass—to serve as the world's first commercial‐scale perennial grain crop to improve ...

Use of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Liquid Organic Fertilizer for Soybean Cultivation on Post-Mining Land

open access: yesJurnal Keteknikan Pertanian Tropis dan Biosistem
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi is one of the biological fertilizers defined as inoculants with active ingedients of living organisms that function to tether certain nutrients or facilitate the availability of nutrients in the soil for plants.

Susceptibility of ectomycorrhizal and ectondomycorrhizal fungi to pH of the environment

open access: yesActa Mycologica, 2014
The present study should yield some information on the reaction of different species and strains of mycorrhizal fungi to acidification or alkalization of substrate.
