Phosphorous is important for life but often limiting for plants. The symbiotic pathway of
phosphate uptake via arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) is evolutionarily ancient and today …

Mycorrhizal fungi considerably improve plant nutrition and help them to cope with changing
environments. Particularly, these fungi express proteins to transfer inorganic phosphate (P i) …

Contamination of small-sized plastics is recognized as a factor of global change.
Nanoplastics (NPs) can readily enter organisms and pose significant ecological risks …

Reciprocal symbiosis of> 70% of terrestrial vascular plants with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM)
fungi provides the fungi with fatty acids and sugars. In return, AM fungi facilitate plant …

Variations in arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM) effects on plant growth (MGR) are commonly
assumed to result from cost: benefit balances, with C as the cost and, most frequently, P as …

Homeostasis in living cells refers to the steady state of internal, physical, and chemical
conditions. It is sustained by self-regulation of the dynamic cellular system. To gain insight …

In contrast to the plasma membrane, the vacuole membrane has not yet been associated
with electrical excitation of plants. Here, we show that mesophyll vacuoles from Arabidopsis …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi provide plants with soil mineral nutrients, particularly
phosphorus. In this symbiotic association, the arbuscular interface is the main site for …

Mycoheterotrophy, whereby plants acquire both carbon and nutrients from a fungal partner,
is an evolutionarily puzzling phenomenon. According to biological market models …

Recently, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as vital regulators of many
biological processes in animals and plants. However, to our knowledge no investigations on …
