Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Their Endobacteria
2006Morphological and molecular evidence indicate that AM fungi have been successful in time and space thanks to a long co-evolution with their host plants. In addition to this well known interaction, they also associate with bacteria that reside in the fungal cytoplasm.

Mycorrhizal Fungi: Siderophore Production
Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 1995AbstractMycorrhizal fungi, which commonly occur in natural as well as agricultural soils, are known to enhance plant uptake of nutrients, including metal ions present as trace concentrations. As mycorrhizal infection is a widespread feature of plant communities, it seems appropriate to review the data on mycorrhizal fungi and their potential to produce

Peatland forest areas have been decreasing due to conversion of forests into farm land, the use of shifting cultivation on a large scale, illegal logging, opencast mining, and forest fires. Numerous studies of tropical forests have indicated that many native tree species were colonized by the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi ...

Root Hair Colonization by Mycorrhizal Fungi
2008Mycorrhizal fungi, i.e., the soil fungi that form mutualistic associations with many land plants, are provided by the host with carbon sources required to complete their life cycle, whereas they assist the plant in nutrient uptake from soil. Such acquisition is also considered to be one of the primary functions of root hairs. The aim of this chapter is

Genome diversity in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2015Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Glomeromycota) are the most widespread and important symbionts of plants. They cannot be cultured without plants, are apparently asexual, and have multiple nuclei in a common cytoplasm. There is evidence for genetic variation among nuclei, and for segregation of this variation during growth, but these findings remain ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and nitrogen uptake
Archives of Microbiology, 2010Nitrogen (N) is among the most important macro-nutrients significantly affecting plant growth and yield production. Accordingly, N must be supplied adequately so that optimum amounts of yield are resulted. There are different ways of supplying N to the plant including the use of chemical and biological fertilization.

Orchids and their mycorrhizal fungi
2019Orchids are associated with diverse fungal taxa, including non-mycorrhizal endophytic fungi and mycorrhizas. Orchid mycorrhiza (OM) symbiosis is an excellent model for investigating the biological interactions between plants and fungi due to their high dependency on these symbionts for growth and survival.
