Epiparasitic plants specialized on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi [PDF]

Nature, 2002
Over 400 non-photosynthetic species from 10 families of vascular plants obtain their carbon from fungi and are thus defined as myco-heterotrophs. Many of these plants are epiparasitic on green plants from which they obtain carbon by 'cheating' shared ...

Global imprint of mycorrhizal fungi on whole-plant nutrient economics

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Most plants on Earth form a symbiosis with root-associated (i.e., mycorrhizal) fungi, trading plant photosynthate for fungal-acquired soil nutrients.

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Symbiosis to Enhance Plant–Soil Interaction

Sustainability, 2022
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form a symbiotic relationship with plants; a symbiotic relationship is one in which both partners benefit from each other.

Investigation of morpho-physiological responses to salinity stress in three promising hybrid genotypes of Iris (Iris germanica L.) inoculated with mycorrhizal fungi [PDF]

فیزیولوژی محیطی گیاهی, 2021
Iris germanica L. is one of the most majestic and popular perennials used in landscape. The aim of this study was comparison of salinity tolerance in three new hybrids genotypes of Iris germanica L. inoculated with mycorrhizal fungi. Treatments consisted

Susceptibility and plant immune control—a case of mycorrhizal strategy for plant colonization, symbiosis, and plant immune suppression

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Plants and microbes (mycorrhizal fungi to be precise) have evolved together over the past millions of years into an association that is mutualist. The plants supply the fungi with photosynthates and shelter, while the fungi reciprocate by enhancing ...

A core microbiome in the hyphosphere of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi has functional significance in organic phosphorus mineralization

New Phytologist, 2022
The mycorrhizal pathway is an important phosphorus (P) uptake pathway for more than two‐thirds of land plants. The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi‐associated hyphosphere microbiome has been considered as the second genome of mycorrhizal P uptake ...

Vanilla aerial and terrestrial roots host rich communities of orchid mycorrhizal and ectomycorrhizal fungi

Plants, People, Planet, 2021
Social Impact Statement Vanilla planifolia is the source of the spice vanilla. This study is part of an international initiative to study the biology, including mycorrhizal fungi and cultivation practices of vanilla to improve its production in Mexico ...

Symbiosis—A Perspective on the Effects of Host Traits and Environmental Parameters in Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungal Richness, Colonization and Ecological Functions

Agriculture, 2023
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are biotrophic fungi that form an association with plant roots and render benefits in nutrient uptake, disease control and plant tolerance to stress conditions.

Protocorm-Supporting Fungi Are Retained in Roots of Mature Tipularia discolor Orchids as Mycorrhizal Fungal Diversity Increases

Plants, 2021
Mycorrhizal fungi are critical to understanding the distribution patterns of many plants, but they are especially important for orchids. Some orchids may change the mycorrhizal fungi they use through their lives, either in response to changes in abiotic ...
