Evolutionary ecology of mycorrhizal functional diversity in agricultural systems

E Verbruggen, E Toby Kiers - Evolutionary Applications, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
The root systems of most agronomic crops are colonized by diverse assemblages of
arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), varying in the functional benefits (eg nutrient transfer …

Fungal evolution: cellular, genomic and metabolic complexity

MA Naranjo‐Ortiz, T Gabaldón - Biological Reviews, 2020 - Wiley Online Library

shaped through evolution is a central question in biology that historically has been …

Routes to roots: direct evidence of water transport by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to host plants

A Kakouridis, JA Hagen, MP Kan, S Mambelli… - New …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can help mitigate plant responses to water stress, but it
is unclear whether AMF do so by indirect mechanisms, direct water transport to roots, or a …

The transcriptome of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus intraradices (DAOM 197198) reveals functional tradeoffs in an obligate symbiont

E Tisserant, A Kohler, P Dozolme‐Seddas… - New …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
The arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis is arguably the most ecologically important eukaryotic
