In most cases, both roots and mycorrhizal fungi are needed for plant nutrient foraging.
Frequently, the colonization of roots by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi seems to be …

Forest management is a complex process that now incorporates information obtained from
many sources. It is increasingly obvious that the physiological status of the trees in a forest …

Most work on root proliferation to a localized nutrient supply has ignored the possible role of
mycorrhizal fungi, despite their key role in nutrient acquisition. Interactions between roots of …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form symbiotic associations with the majority of land
plants, including many important agricultural crops. These fungi facilitate plant nutrient …

To assess changes in soil nutrients, root growth and mycrorrhizal infection in response to
rain events, a water pulse was applied to a very dry soil. Wetting of a dry soil in the Great …

Summary 1 Nutrient‐rich patches can occur in soils at a wide range of spatial and temporal
scales. Differences in the root proliferation response between species may be due to …

1 We used the Barber-Cushman model of nutrient uptake to simulate the importance of soil
heterogeneity and root plasticity for nitrate (NO-3) and phosphate (P) uptake. Model inputs …

Green compost, produced from green wastes, is characterized by high quality standards.
The influence of soil amendment with green compost and with an arbuscular mycorrhizal …

The capture of nitrogen (N) by plants from N‐rich complex organic material differing in
spatial (uniform dispersion or discrete patches) heterogeneity was measured, as well as the …

The presence of arbuscular mycorrhizas in fens has received little attention, but because fen
plants are often phosphorus limited, the plant–fungus interaction could be an important …
