The association between plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) affects plant
performance and ecosystem functioning. Recent studies have identified AMF-associated …

Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) symbiosis occurs between obligate biotrophic fungi of the
phylum Glomeromycota and most land plants. The exchange of nutrients between host …

Plants form beneficial associations with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, which facilitate nutrient
acquisition from the soil. In return, the fungi receive organic carbon from the plants. The …

Carbohydrates provide the building blocks for plant structures as well as versatile resources
for metabolic processes. The nonstructural carbohydrates (NSC), mainly sugars and starch …

Most land plants form symbiotic associations with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. These
are the most common and widespread terrestrial plant symbioses, which have a global …

Bacteria and fungi can form a range of physical associations that depend on various modes
of molecular communication for their development and functioning. These bacterial-fungal …

Mycorrhizal fungi are a heterogeneous group of diverse fungal taxa, associated with the
roots of over 90% of all plant species. Recently, state-of-the-art molecular and genetic tools …

Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM), a symbiosis between plants and members of an ancient
phylum of fungi, the Glomeromycota, improves the supply of water and nutrients, such as …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) contribute predominantly to soil organic matter by
creating a sink demand for plant C and distributing to below-ground hyphal biomass. The …

Soil nutrient acquisition and exchanges through symbiotic plant–fungus interactions in the
rhizosphere are key features for the current agricultural and environmental challenges …
