Background and aims Arbuscular (AM) and ectomycorrhizas (EM) predominate in different
soils. We hypothesise that also climatic factors affect directly their relative success and AM …

Arbuscular mycorrhizas (AM) are adapted to soils with higher pH, less organic matter and
more available nitrogen than ectomycorrhizas (EM). We hypothesise that also climatic …

Arbuscular mycorrhizas (AMs) prevail in warm and dry climates and ectomycorrhizas (EMs)
in cold and humid climates. We suggest that the fungal symbionts benefit their host plants …

Little is known about direct and indirect effects of extreme weather events on arbuscular
mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) under field conditions. In a field experiment, we investigated the …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) plants and fungi associate with lower soil organic matter,
higher pH, lower phosphorus and higher nitrogen than ectomycorrhizal (EM) ones …

Aims Root colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) enhances plant growth and
the symbiosis can play a major role in enhancing drought tolerance of host plants. Our aim …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) play a crucial role in plant health due to their ability to
improve tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Our aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of …

Anthropogenic global change is increasing the severity and frequency of abiotic stresses
such as drought that are likely to affect soil communities. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi predominate in grasslands, where they play a key role in
enhancing plant water uptake and plant tolerance to drought. However, how plant …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) have been found to help plants adapt to water deficit
conditions. However, it still lacks filed evidence on how AMF affect plant physiology and soil …
