Nitrogen is a major nutrient that frequently limits primary productivity in terrestrial
ecosystems. Therefore, the physiological responses of plants to soil nitrogen (N) availability …

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) …

Nitrogen availability often restricts primary productivity in terrestrial ecosystems. Arbuscular
mycorrhizal fungi are ubiquitous symbionts of terrestrial plants and can improve plant …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi facilitate inorganic N (NH 4+ or NO 3−) uptake by plants,
but their role in N mobilization from organic sources is unclear. We hypothesized that …

Nitrogen (N) is among the most important macro-nutrients significantly affecting plant growth
and yield production. Accordingly, N must be supplied adequately so that optimum amounts …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis is heavily and positively implicated in phosphorus
(P) acquisition from soil to plants, including many important agricultural crops. Its role in …

Many studies have established that arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi transfer N to the host plant.
However, the role and importance of arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) in plant N nutrition is still …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can transfer nitrogen (N) to host plants, but the
ecological relevance is debated, as total plant N and biomass do not generally increase …

The influence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on soil processes is difficult to define, in
part because it varies with the plant and fungal geno types as well as with environmental …

Nitrogen (N) is the most abundant mineral nutrient required by plants, and crop productivity
depends heavily on N fertilization in many soils. Production and application of N fertilizers …
