Many terrestrial plants form reciprocal symbioses with beneficial fungi in roots; however, it is not clear whether Vicia villosa, an important forage and green manure crop, can co-exist with these fungi and how such symbiosis affects plant growth and soil properties. The aim of this study is to analyze the effects of inoculation with three arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) such as Diversisporaspurca, Funneliformismosseae, and Rhizophagusintraradices and an endophytic fungus Serendipitaindica on plant growth, root morphology, chlorophyll and sugar levels, soil nutrients, and aggregate size dis

Abstract:
Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi living in the soil closely collaborate with plants in their root zone and play very important role in their evolution. Their symbiosis stimulates plant growth and resistance to different environmental stresses. Plant root system, extended by mycelium of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, has better capability to reach the water and dissolved nutrients from a much larger volume of soil. This could solve the problem of imminent depletion of phosphate stock, affect plant fertilisation, and contribute to sustainable production of foods, feeds, biofuel, and raw mate

Abstract:
More than 80% of land plant species can form symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, and nutrient transfer to plants is largely mediated through this partnership. Over the last few years, great progress has been made in deciphering the molecular mechanisms underlying the AM-mediated modulation of nutrient uptake progress, and a growing number of fungal and plant genes responsible for the uptake of nutrients from soil or transfer across the fungal–root interface have been identified. In this review, we outline the current concepts of nutrient exchanges within this symbiosis (mechanism

Abstract:
Most terrestrial plants are able to form a root symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi for enhancing the assimilation of mineral nutrients. AM fungi are obligate symbionts that depend on host plants as their sole carbon source. Development of an AM association requires a continuous signal exchange between the two symbionts, which triggers coordinated differentiation of both partners, to enable their interaction within the root cells. The control of the AM symbiosis involves a finely-tuned process, and an increasing number of studies have pointed to a pivotal role of several phytohorm

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and rhizobia are important symbiotic microorganisms in soil, which can symbiose with legumes to form mycorrhizal symbionts and nodules, respectively.

Although plants can directly utilize ammonium through ammonium transporters (AMTs), there is limited research on the role of the AMT gene family in promoting ammonium transport in symbiotic relationships.

AbstractPlants absorb mineral nutrients for growth and development from the soil though their roots; nutrient acquisition is therefore limited by their root area. To improve it, especially in nutrient-poor conditions, many plant species depend on symbiotic interactions with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, which provide essential nutrients obtained through the network of hyphae to the host plants. When nitrogen, phosphate, or sulfur is deficient, plants produce strigolactones, key signaling molecules, to initiate the interaction with AM fungi. Here, first, we introduce the diversity of AM fu

AbstractArbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are ubiquitous, soil-borne, endophytic, obligate biotrophs that colonize the roots of most terrestrial plants to establish mutually beneficial relationships. The colonization of host roots by AMF improves the access of plant roots to nutrients, mainly phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N). In return, host plants provide the colonizing fungus with carbon (C)-rich photosynthates such as sugar and lipids. This nutrient exchange strongly impacts plant and microbial ecosystems by influencing plant fitness, core soil processes, and the C cycle. Crucially, both mu

Glomalin is considered a recalcitrant source of carbon. The half-life of glycoprotein is approximately 50 years, so it has a relatively long persistence in soil.
