Negative or positive feedback between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and host plants can contribute to plant species interactions, but how this feedback affects plant invasion or resistance to invasion is not well known. Here we tested how alterations in AMF community induced by an invasive plant species generate feedback to the invasive plant itself and affect subsequent interactions betwe...

The aim of this paper was to test the use of dual microbial inoculation with mycorrhizal and saprotrophic fungi in onion cultivation to enhance yield while maintaining or improving the nutritional quality of onion bulbs. Treatments were two-factorial: (1) arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF): the mix corresponding to fungal part of commercial product Symbivit (Glomus etunicatum, G. microaggregatu...

The seasonal change and host preference of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) colonization and community composition of five common plant species Agropyron cristatum, Anemarrhena asphodeloides, Cleistogenes squarrosa, Leymus chinensis, and Stipa grandis in the Inner Mongolia steppe were investigated. The AM root length colonization rates were different among the five plant species and were generally h...

Los hongos micorrízicos arbusculares se asocian simbióticamente con la mayoría de las plantas terrestres, los cuales proporcionan diversos beneficios, que incluyen absorción nutrimentos y agua, mayor tolerancia a enfermedades radicales, promoviendo un crecimiento vegetal. El objetivo esta investigación fue identificar seleccionar especies (HMA) nativos rizosfera chile Poblano evaluar su efecto ...

the morphological diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (amf) at the anguran zn and pb mining region (zanjan province, iran) were studied along a transect from the mine to 4500 m away. within each plot, a composite sample of root and rhizospheric soil from a dominant indigenous plant was collected. the soil samples were analyzed for their physico-chemical characteristics. spores were extrac...

Secondary metabolites released by invasive plants can increase their competitive ability by affecting native plants, herbivores, and pathogens at the invaded land. Whether these secondary metabolites affect the invasive plant itself, directly or indirectly through microorganisms, however, has not been well documented. Here we tested whether activated carbon (AC), a well-known absorbent for seco...

This study was conducted to evaluate the population of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in the semi-rid agro-ecosystem of North Jordan and to evaluate the effect of the biotic and abiotic factors on AMF population. Soil samples were collected from 12 locations where several soil samples were collected from each location. The collected soil samples were analysed for chemical and physical p...
