Root systems of most land plants form arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbioses in the field,
and these contribute to nutrient uptake. AM roots have two pathways for nutrient absorption …

Recent research on arbuscular mycorrhizas has demonstrated that AM fungi play a
significant role in plant phosphorus (P) uptake, regardless of whether the plant responds …

Many microorganisms form symbioses with plants that range, on a continuous scale, from
parasitic to mutualistic. Among these, the most widespread mutualistic symbiosis is the …

We investigated structural and functional diversity in arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbioses
involving three plant species and three AM fungi and measured contributions of the fungi to …

Most mycorrhizas are 'balanced'mutualistic associations in which the fungus and plant
exchange commodities required for their growth and survival. Myco-heterotrophic plants …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi colonize the root systems of most land plants and modulate
plant growth by enhancing the availability of nutrients, mainly phosphorus, for plant nutrition …

At present, drought and soil salinity are among the most severe environmental stresses that
affect the growth of plants through marked reduction of water uptake which lowers water …

Currently, no official DNA barcode region is defined for the Fungi. The COX1 gene DNA
barcode is difficult to apply. The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region has been suggested …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbioses are mutualistic associations between soil fungi and
most vascular plants. The symbiosis significantly affects the host physiology in terms of …

• A survey of 12 plants colonized by six species of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi was
conducted to explore the diversity of Arum and Paris mycorrhizal structures.• Surveyed root …
