Environmental conditions are becoming increasingly challenging in managed ecosystems,
especially in agricultural fields, where environmentally friendly solutions are urgently …

Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) is the most common symbiotic association of plants with
microbes. AM fungi occur in the majority of natural habitats and they provide a range of …

Plant–fungal symbiotic associations are ubiquitously distributed in natural plant
communities. Besides the well-studied mycorrhizal symbiosis and grass systemic …

When plants colonized the land 450 million years ago, they were already associated to soil
fungi, which assisted them in facilitating the uptake of mineral nutrients. This symbiotic …

Mycorrhizas are among the most important biological interkingdom interactions, as they
involve~ 340,000 land plants and~ 50,000 taxa of soil fungi. In these mutually beneficial …

There is an increasing need to find alternatives to high‐intensity agriculture. Intensively
managed agrosystems are inefficient and lead to reduced ecosystem functioning and …

In nature, plants frequently experience concurrent colonization with arbuscular mycorrhizal
fungi (AMF) and grass endophytes (Epichloë). These two fungi assist in mineral uptake and …

Mycorrhizal fungi are a heterogeneous group of diverse fungal taxa, associated with the
roots of over 90% of all plant species. Recently, state-of-the-art molecular and genetic tools …

Symbionts called 'mycorrhizal fungi'occur in most biomes on earth, and are a fundamental
reason for plant growth and development on the planet. The most common group of …

Fungal endophytes live symbiotically within healthy plant tissues and found to be associated
with all host plants studied till date in all natural ecosystems with varied geographical areas …
