Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are obligate biotrophs that supply mineral nutrients to
the host plant in exchange for carbon derived from photosynthesis. Sucrose is the end …

Arsenic (As) is a potentially toxic metalloid classified as a group 1 carcinogen, released in
the soil environment because of natural as well as different anthropogenic activities. The …

Background and aims Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are plant root symbionts highly
specialized upon phosphorus (P) supply to their hosts. We investigated plants' ability to …

Legumes form tripartite interactions with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and rhizobia, and both
root symbionts exchange nutrients against carbon from their host. The carbon costs of these …

Soil conditioners and beneficial microorganisms are important tools that can be used to
increase the sustainability of agro-systems. However, the high diversity of conditions where …

Biofertilizers of mycorrhizal fungi have been mainly tested in nutrient-limited soils or harsh
environmental conditions, which have helped to highlight their beneficial role in plant …

Aims Although arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis is common in many plants with either C 3
or C 4 photosynthesis, it remains poorly understood whether photosynthesis type has any …

Although declared as a research priority more than 40 years ago, the knowledge about the
magnitude and mechanisms of carbon (C) fluxes between plants and their mycorrhizal …

The effect of commercial mycorrhizal fungi on pre-rooted olive cuttings was assessed. The
study consisted of two experiments, the first arranged as a factorial design with three …

Apple rootstocks establish symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), however the
influence of fungal isolates on nutritional and physiological parameters are limited. The aim …
