Many forest ecosystems are experiencing increased drought stress because of changing
patterns of aridity, caused by both climate change and human land-use activities …

As the Earth's climate changes, droughts are expected to become more intense, with
consequences for plants and mycorrhizal fungi. We review recent studies examining the …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) have been presumed to ameliorate crop tolerance to
drought. Here, we review the role of AMF in maintaining water supply to plants from drying …

Water deficit is considered one of the most important abiotic constraints limiting plant growth
and yield in many areas on the Earth. Indeed, it accounts for over 70% of yield losses during …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi play a positive role in plant water relations, and the AM
symbiosis is often cited as beneficial for overcoming drought stress of host plants …

Climate changes cause altering rainfall patterns resulting in an increase in drought
occurrences globally. These events are disrupting plants and agricultural productivity. To …

Mycorrhizal symbiosis is an ancient association of plants and mycorrhizal fungi central to
woody plant evolution and expansion. This symbiosis has established a complex exchange …

Irregular precipitation and drought caused an increase in tree mortality rates in multiple
forest biomes with alterations in both ecosystem services and carbon balance. Carob …

Although positive effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi on plant performance under
drought have been well documented, how AM fungi regulate soil functions and …

Soil water retention capacity, hydraulic conductivity, and permeability are primarily
determined by texture (sand, silt, clay contents), structure (bulk density and porosity), and …
