The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis is generally considered effective in improving salt tolerance plants; however, the advantages it offers can vary greatly depending on context which occurs; furthermore, mechanisms underlying these responses are still unclear. A study was conducted to investigate role of nitrogen (N) availability effectiveness AM durum wheat (Triticum Desf.) plants grown...

Olive trees (Olea europaea L.) in natural environments are increasingly being subjected to abiotic stresses, such as water deficit. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbioses can improve olive tolerance In the current study, elucidate role of AM fungi regulating deficit resistance olive, effects Rhizophagus irregularis DAOM 197198 on gas exchange, stem potential, phytohormones, carbohydrates and ind...

The plant domestication process led to crops with strongly modified growth-defense tradeoff features, and that were much more pampered in terms of nutrition, irrigation defense measures, showing less ability trigger adaptation strategies respect their wild relatives. It is worth noting plants are not alone, they share environment a myriad microbes supporting them many relevant functions. We hav...

Large fraction of mineral nutrients in natural soil environments is recycled from complex and heterogeneously distributed organic sources. These sources are explored by both roots and associated mycorrhizal fungi. However, the mechanisms behind the responses of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) hyphal networks to soil organic patches of different qualities remain little understood. Therefore, we cond...

Mucormycosis usually presents as a progressive infection with significant angio-invasion. Mucormycosis due to Mucor irregularis (formerly Rhizomucor variabilis var. variabilis), however, is exceptional in causing chronic cutaneous infection in immunocompetent humans, ultimately leading to severe morbidity if left untreated. More than 90 % of the cases known to date were reported from Asia, main...

Abstract To reduce dependency on inorganic phosphorus (P) fertiliser, secondary P fertilisers such as struvite are becoming more important. However, the uptake of these new by plants is often not known and may be enhanced plant associated microorganisms. We therefore investigated effect arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM) in rye ( Secale cereale L.), grown middle compartment a box with chambers separat...

the aim of present study was to investigate the effect of individual and co-inoculation of trichoderma species and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (amf) on growth, mycorrhization, population of trichoderma, and wilt disease severity in pigeon pea (cajanus cajan l millsp). three species of trichoderma, namely, t. harzianum (th), t. virens (tr), and t. viride (tv) and consortium of amf (myc; mixture...
