Phosphorus cycling in deciduous forest soil differs between stands dominated by ecto- and arbuscular mycorrhizal trees.
Although much is known about how trees and their associated microbes influence nitrogen cycling in temperate forest soils, less is known about biotic controls over phosphorus (P) cycling. Given that mycorrhizal fungi are instrumental for P acquisition and that the two dominant associations - arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi - possess different strategies for acquiring...
متن کاملDrought, but not salinity, determines the apparent effectiveness of halophytes colonized by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.
The halophytes Plantago maritima, Aster tripolium, Artemisia santonicum, Puccinellia limosa, Festuca pseudovina and Lepidium crassifolium from two different saline soils of the Hungarian steppe were examined for colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). The salt aster (A. tripolium) and the sea plantain (P. maritima) were examined more thoroughly by recording root colonization paramet...
متن کاملDecay rates of leaf litters from arbuscular mycorrhizal trees are more sensitive to soil effects than litters from ectomycorrhizal trees
1. While it is well established that leaf litter decomposition is controlled by climate and substrate quality at broad spatial scales, conceptual frameworks that consider how local-scale factors affect litter decay in heterogeneous landscapes are generally lacking. 2. A critical challenge in disentangling the relative impacts of and interactions among local-scale factors is that these factors f...
متن کاملDiversity of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Their Roles in Ecosystems
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) have mutualistic relationships with more than 80% of terrestrial plant species. This symbiotic relationship is ancient and would have had important roles in establishment of plants on land. Despite their abundance and wide range of relationship with plant species, AMF have shown low species diversity. However, molecular studies have suggested that diversity of...
متن کاملArbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi: More Diverse than Meets the Eye, and the Ecological Tale of Why
H ecologists focused on interspecific competition as the critical factor structuring plant communities. Interactions between plants, however, are likely to be mediated by myriad interactions with soil organisms (Bever et al. 1997). The vast majority of plants, for example, take up nutrients through interactions with root symbionts. Of these root symbionts, arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are ...
