In response to mounting concerns over heavy metal contamination in soils, this review
explores the potential of beneficial soil microorganisms, particularly Plant Growth-Promoting …

Soil fungi play indispensable roles in all ecosystems including the recycling of organic
matter and interactions with plants, both as symbionts and pathogens. Past observations …

Walnut trees are among the most important hardwood species in the northern hemisphere,
ecologically and economically. They are mainly cultivated for timber and nut production but …

Aims The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms by which nitrogen (N) and
phosphorous (P) additions affect plant C: N: P stoichiometry via changes in AMF …

Life-history traits differ substantially among arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal families,
potentially affecting hyphal nutrient acquisition efficiency, host nutrition, and thereby plant …

Despite the evident importance of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AM fungal) associated with
the root and rhizosphere system of elevation gradients, limit is known about the difference in …

Mixed‐species forests have often been shown to enhance above‐ground ecosystem
properties and processes. Despite the significance of fine roots for tree and ecosystem …

In the changing scenario of agriculture, plants are exposed to various biotic and abiotic
stresses. Induction of both constitutive and inducible defense systems was noticed in plants …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form a mutualistic symbiosis with the roots of most land
plants and assist the host plants in taking up soil phosphorus and nitrogen (N) in exchange …

Aims Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are intimately associated with fine roots and are
involved in nutrient acquisition. However, little information is available on the links between …
