The loss of carbon from roots (rhizodeposition) and the consequent proliferation of
microorganisms in the surrounding soil, coupled with the physical presence of a root and …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and bacteria can interact synergistically to stimulate plant
growth through a range of mechanisms that include improved nutrient acquisition and …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) transfer plant photosynthate underground which can
stimulate soil microbial growth. In this study, we examined whether there was a potential link …

Nitrogen is a major nutrient that frequently limits primary productivity in terrestrial
ecosystems. Therefore, the physiological responses of plants to soil nitrogen (N) availability …

Essential oils (EO) of several plant species have the potential to combat plant and fungal
diseases. However, the effects of Achillea millefolium EO on the development of common …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are key components of soil microbiota and obviously interact
with other microorganisms in the rhizosphere, ie the zone of influence of plant roots on …

Sustainable farming systems strive to minimise the use of synthetic pesticides and to
optimise the use of alternative management strategies to control soil‐borne pathogens …

Colonization of plant roots by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi can greatly increase the plant
uptake of phosphorus and nitrogen. The most prominent contribution of arbuscular …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi as well as microbial-free inoculants used as
phytostimulators (Azospirillum) or as biological control agents of fungi (Pseudomonas and …

Plants acquire and recycle nutrients from soil organic matter, and these dynamics depend
on a highly diverse array of microorganisms in the rhizosphere. Although functions of many …
