Negative feedback within a mutualism: host-specific growth of mycorrhizal fungi reduces plant benefit.
A basic tenet of ecology is that negative feedback on abundance plays an important part in the coexistence of species within guilds. Mutualistic interactions generate positive feedbacks on abundance and therefore are not thought to contribute to the maintenance of diversity. Here, I report evidence of negative feedback on plant growth through changes in the composition of their mutualistic fung...
متن کاملIntegrating plant carbon dynamics with mutualism ecology.
Plants reward microbial and animal mutualists with carbohydrates to obtain nutrients, defense, pollination, and dispersal. Under a fixed carbon budget, plants must allocate carbon to their mutualists at the expense of allocation to growth, reproduction, or storage. Such carbon trade-offs are indirectly expressed when a plant exhibits reduced growth or fecundity in the presence of its mutualist....
متن کاملAnalysis of plant lipids
In this chapter selected methods used in plant lipid analyses are discussed. The first step of fat analysis consists in the isolation of lipid components from the plant matrix, thus in the first section the most popular methods of isolation are described. Afterwards, due to the complicated mixture of lipid components their separation is required where different types of chromatography technique...
متن کاملSoil Fungi-Plant Interaction
One of the main European agricultural problems is the decline in soil fertility due to the reduction of the natural soil harmony. When natural soil composition is altered, few cultivated plants replace spontaneous populations of numerous species. Man becomes the only regulator of a new fragile equilibrium between the simplified biocenosis elements. Agronomic techniques (fertilisation, irrigatio...
متن کاملCan the evolution of plant defense lead to plant-herbivore mutualism?
Moderate rates of herbivory can enhance primary production. This hypothesis has led to a controversy as to whether such positive effects can result in mutualistic interactions between plants and herbivores. We present a model for the ecology and evolution of plant-herbivore systems to address this question. In this model, herbivores have a positive indirect effect on plants through recycling of...
