Most plant species can form symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMFs), which may
enhance the host plant's acquisition of soil nutrients. In contrast to phosphorus nutrition, the …

The majority of land plants acquire soil nutrients, such as phosphorus and nitrogen, not only
through the root surface but also through arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. Soybean is the …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi contribute to plant nitrogen (N) acquisition. Recent
studies demonstrated the transport of N in the form of ammonium during AM symbiosis …

In mycorrhizal associations, the fungal partner assists its plant host by providing nitrogen (N)
in addition to phosphate. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi have access to inorganic or …

High-affinity ammonium uptake in plant roots is mainly mediated by AMT1-type ammonium
transporters, and their regulation varies depending on the plant species. In this study we …

Nutrient acquisition and transfer are essential steps in the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM)
symbiosis, which is formed by the majority of land plants. Mineral nutrients are taken up by …

In the symbiotic association of plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, the fungus
delivers mineral nutrients, such as phosphate and nitrogen, to the plant while receiving …

One way to elucidate whether ammonium could act as a nitrogen (N) source delivered by
the fungus in ectomycorrhizal symbiosis is to investigate plant ammonium importers.• …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi play a key role in the nutrition of many land plants. AM
roots have two pathways for nutrient uptake, directly through the root epidermis and root …

Most terrestrial plants live in mutualistic symbiosis with root-infecting mycorrhizal fungi. This
association requires a molecular dialogue between the two partners. However, the nature of …
