Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and colonization stimulant in cotton and maize

open access: yesCiência Rural
: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of inoculation with different arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi native to Cerrado, associated with the application of colonization stimulant (7-hydroxy, 4’-methoxy-isoflavone) at the initial growth of ...

Ecosystem retrogression enhances cross‐domain microbial stability and increases the genetic potential for nutrient cycling

open access: yesmLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecosystem retrogression drives nutrient depletion, reduced productivity, and profound reorganization of soil microbial communities. Using amplicon sequencing and genome‐resolved metagenomics, we examined how cross‐domain microbial networks and functional gene potential respond to long‐term phosphorus and nitrogen limitation along the well ...

Identity and specificity of Rhizoctonia-like fungi from different populations of Liparis japonica (Orchidaceae) in Northeast China. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Mycorrhizal association is known to be important to orchid species, and a complete understanding of the fungi that form mycorrhizas is required for orchid ecology and conservation. Liparis japonica (Orchidaceae) is a widespread terrestrial photosynthetic

Strigolactone signaling: Licensing antiviral RNA interference in rice

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Rice grassy stunt virus (RGSV) suppresses strigolactone‐mediated antiviral RNAi through P3‐D14 interaction. Structure‐guided D14D102N editing disrupts P3 binding while maintaining SL signaling, sustaining antiviral defense and providing strong resistance without compromising plant growth or yield.

Patterns and environmental drivers of root traits across hydrological gradients in old growth boreal forests

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Many key ecosystem functions are affected by plant roots and their traits. However, understanding of the patterns in, and drivers of, root traits lags far behind equivalent knowledge of above‐ground tissues, particularly in boreal old growth forests. We surveyed community‐level root traits across 11 old growth forests spanning a wide latitudinal range ...

Mycorrhiza: The Importance of This Hidden Network

open access: yesSouth-East European Forestry
Mycorrhizal symbiosis represents a mutualistic association between fungi and plant roots which significantly impacts terrestrial ecosystems. Mycorrhizal fungi enhance plant nutrient acquisition, especially phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N).

Total fatty acid composition in the characterization and identification of orchid mycorrhizal fungi Epulorhiza spp.

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2011
Rhizoctonia-like fungi are the main mycorrhizal fungi in orchid roots. Morphological characterization and analysis of conserved sequences of genomic DNA are frequently employed in the identification and study of fungi diversity.

Range‐wide sampling reveals cryptic lineages but largely conserved mycorrhizal associations in the Japanese fairy lantern Thismia kobensis

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The jewel‐like flowers of Thismia are as rare as they are beautiful, often recorded from only a single site per species. Access to 15 populations of T. kobensis has enabled an uncommon, range‐wide assessment of morphology, genetics, and fungal partners. Our analyses showed that T.

Harnessing mycorrhizal flexibility enhances soil nitrogen acquisition and productivity in Eucalyptus plantations

open access: yesIndustrial Crops and Products
Eucalyptus is a fast-growing plantation tree species cultivated worldwide and is a typically dual-mycorrhizal tree. Dual-mycorrhizal Eucalyptus provides a valuable model to investigate how mycorrhizal associations influence soil nutrient acquisition ...

Crop genotypic richness enhances biomass production and phosphorus acquisition in maize‐mycorrhiza symbiosis

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Our study tests how soil and plant biodiversity can enhance sustainability of crop production in Kenya. We tested whether mixtures of maize varieties performed better than monocultures and tested their response to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal responsiveness differed significantly by maize variety, and genetic mixtures outperformed ...
