Gene copy number polymorphisms in an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal population.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Gene copy number polymorphism was studied in a population of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus intraradices by using a quantitative PCR approach on four different genomic regions. Variation in gene copy number was found for a pseudogene and for three ribosomal genes, providing conclusive evidence for a widespread occurrence of macromutational events in the population.

Relationships Between land Use and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (AM) Spore Abundance in Calcareous Soils
This study was conducted to determine soil properties that correlate with the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) spore numbers in semiarid calcareous soils of Hamadan province in northwestern of Iran. Soil samples from six sites managed differently were collected from a 0 to 30 cm depth. The results showed that land use and management systems had a significant effect on AMF spore number in soi...
متن کاملDiversity and Spatial Structure of Belowground Plant–Fungal Symbiosis in a Mixed Subtropical Forest of Ectomycorrhizal and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Plants
Plant-mycorrhizal fungal interactions are ubiquitous in forest ecosystems. While ectomycorrhizal plants and their fungi generally dominate temperate forests, arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis is common in the tropics. In subtropical regions, however, ectomycorrhizal and arbuscular mycorrhizal plants co-occur at comparable abundances in single forests, presumably generating complex community stru...

This study aimed to investigate the diversity and types of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) associated with the wild service tree, Sorbus torminalis (L.) Crantz in spring and autumn followed by identifying similarities among the different study sites. Three different sites were selected including Kheiroud, Lalis, and Tarkin, in the Hyrcanian forests, north of Iran. Five rhizosphere soil sampl...
متن کاملAre there benefits of simultaneous root colonization by different arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi?
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) communities were established in pots using fungal isolates from a single field in Switzerland. It was tested whether multispecies mixtures provided more phosphorus and supported greater plant growth than single AMF species. Two host plants, medic (Medicago truncatula) and leek (Allium porrum), were inoculated with three AMF species (Glomus mosseae, G. claroid...
متن کاملElevated CO 2 and plant species richness impact arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal spore communities
• We enumerated arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal spore communities for 3 yr as part of a long-term CO 2 enrichment experiment at Cedar Creek, Minnesota, USA. Complete factorial combinations of two levels of CO 2 and N, and 16 perennial plant species grown in monoculture and 16-species polyculture were arranged in a splitplot design. • In 1998–2000, spore communities were quantified under mono...
