Mycorrhizas are mutually beneficial associations between soil-borne fungi and plant roots.
Mycorrhizal fungi provide their host plant with essential nutrients in exchange for sugars …

Mycorrhizal fungus constitutes heterogeneous fungal taxa embracing an array of plant
species. This group is found allied with the roots of beyond 90% of the plant species in this …

The role of mycorrhizal fungi in acquisition of mineral nutrients by host plants is examined for
three groups of mycorrhizas. These are; the ectomycorrhizas (ECM), the ericoid mycorrhizas …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, as obligate biotrophs, rely for their growth and activity on
carbon provided by their host plant and, in exchange, they improve the mineral nutrition of …

The colonization of plant roots by arbuscular mycorrhizal [AM] fungi can greatly affect the
plant uptake of mineral nutrients. It may also protect plants from harmful elements in soil. The …

More than 80% of land plant species can form symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM)
fungi, and nutrient transfer to plants is largely mediated through this partnership. Over the …

This review brings together recent work on the coordination of transport processes between
fungus and plant symbionts in arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbioses, and focuses on new …

The role that common mycorrhizal networks (CMNs) play in plant‐to‐plant transfer of zinc
(Zn) has not yet been investigated, despite the proved functions of arbuscular mycorrhizal …

The Glomeromycota–the fungi that form arbuscular mycorrhizas–are both abundant,
representing perhaps 10% or more of soil microbial biomass, and ecologically important …

Arbuscular mycorrhiza constitute a heterogeneous group of diverse fungal taxa that have
been reported to form mutualistic interaction with the roots of more than 90% of all plant …
