Mycorrhizal species differentially alter plant growth and response to herbivory.
Plants simultaneously interact with multiple organisms which can both positively and negatively affect their growth. Herbivores can reduce plant growth through loss of plant biomass and photosynthetic area, while plant mutualists, such as mycorrhizal fungi, can increase plant growth through uptake of essential nutrients. This is the first study examining whether species-specific associations wi...
متن کاملGrowth trades off with habitat specialization.
How differences in niche breadth evolve and are maintained remains largely unknown. The 'jack of all trades is master of none' model of resource specialization has been widely considered, but, to our knowledge, never before supported empirically. It invokes performance trade-offs associated with specialization. Specialists should outperform generalists on a subset of resources, but be unable to...
متن کاملRun off River Plant: Status and Prospects
s: -Most of the small hydro power plants are based on Run of River scheme, implying that they do not have any water storage capability. The power is generated only when enough water is available from the river. When the stream flow reduces below the design flow value, the generation will reduce as the water does not flow through the intake structure into the turbine. Small hydro plants may be s...
متن کاملInoculation of Schizolobium parahyba with Mycorrhizal Fungi and Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria Increases Wood Yield under Field Conditions
Schizolobium parahyba var. amazonicum (Huber ex Ducke) occurs naturally in the Brazilian Amazon. Currently, it is being planted extensively because of its fast growth and excellent use in forestry. Consequently, there is great interest in new strategies to increase wood production. The interaction between soil microorganisms and plants, specifically in the roots, provides essential nutrients fo...
متن کاملStudy on the growth of (Achillea millefolium L.) medicinal plant by soil inoculation of mountainous area with selected mycorrhizal fungi
In recent years, the use of soil microbial potential including arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi is widely considered to enhance the better growth and nutrition of plants. This research was conducted in order to study the impact of mycorrhizal fungi on the increase of yarrow production and the plant establishment affected by the symbiotic ...
