The ability of the external mycelium in arbuscular mycorrhiza for N uptake and transport was
studied. The contribution of the fungal symbiont to N acquisition by plants was studied …

Nitrogen (N) capture by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi from organic material is a recently
discovered phenomenon. This study investigated the ability of two Glomus species to …

A technique using 15N‐labelled inorganic fertilizer was applied to estimate N2 fixation by
the forage legume Hedysarum coronarium L. and to ascertain the role of vesicular …

The significance of the external mycelium of arbuscular mycorrhiza for uptake and transport
of N from 15N‐labelled nitrate in benefiting plant nutrition, was evaluated under either well …

Multiple species of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can colonize roots of an individual
plant species but factors which determine the selection of a particular AMF species in a plant …

Transport of N by hyphae of a vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus was studied under
controlled experimental conditions. The N source was applied to the soil as 15 NH inf4 sup+ …

Arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM) are the symbiotic fungi that predominate in the roots and soils
of agricultural crop plants. The most recognized beneficial effect of these fungi is to enhance …

New information on N uptake and transport of inorganic and organic N in arbuscular
mycorrhizal fungi is reviewed here. Hyphae of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi increase nitrogen (N) uptake by their host plants, but their
role in plant N capture from soil organic material is still unclear. In particular, it is not clear if …

Background Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form mutualistic symbioses with c. two-
thirds of all land plants. Traditionally, it was thought that they played no role in nitrogen (N) …
