Changes in bacterial community structure induced by mycorrhizal colonisation in split-root maize
Maize plants were grown in an autoclaved quartz sand–soil mix to which the bacterial communities of the soil and the mycorrhizal inocula were...
-
Carbon and Nutrient Fluxes Within and Between Mycorrhizal Plants
Mycorrhizal fungi are involved in the uptake of nutrients in exchange for C from host plants, and possibly in the transfer of C and nutrients between... -
Combined effect of an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus and a biocontrol bacterium againstPythium ultimum in soil
The combined effect of the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Glomus intraradices and the bacterium Burkholderia cepacia on Pythium ultimum was studied...
-
Mycorrhizosphere interactions to improve plant fitness and soil quality
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are key components of soil microbiota and obviously interact with other microorganisms in the rhizosphere, i.e. the zone...
-
Fungal growth and effects of different wood decomposing fungi on the indigenous bacterial community of polluted and unpolluted soils
Thirty-two different basidiomycete isolates were inoculated separately into contaminated soil and the soil colonization ability was assessed...
-
Mycorrhizas
Mycorrhizas (‘fungus-roots’: also called mycorrhizae) of one sort or another are a normal part of root function and ecology for the vast majority of... -
Alteration in Rhizosphere Soil Properties of Afforested Rhamnus lycioides Seedlings in Short-Term Response to Mycorrhizal Inoculation with Glomus intraradices and Organic Amendment
The reestablisment of autochthonous plant species is an essential strategy for recovering degraded areas under semiarid conditions. A field...

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis Changes the Colonization Pattern of Acacia tortilis spp. Raddiana Rhizosphere by Two Strains of Rhizobia
The aim of the study was to assess the effect of the mycorrhizosphere of A. tortillis spp. raddiana mycorrhized with Glomus intraradices on the root...

Changes in phosphorus concentrations and pH in the rhizosphere of some agroforestry and crop species
The aim of this work was to assess whether agroforestry species have the ability to acquire P from pools unavailable to maize. Tithonia diversifolia (H...

Effects of mycorrhizae and chitin-hydrolysing microbes on Vicia faba
The effect of Streptomyces albovinaceus (S-22) and Bacillus sp. (B1) on the growth response, nodulation, nutrition and nitrogenase activities of faba...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and soil bacteria: from cellular investigations to biotechnological perspectives
The rhizosphere is a dynamic environment in which bacteria, viruses, fungi, and microfauna, develop, interact and take advantage of organic matter... -
The rhizosphere of mycorrhizal plants
Providing that appropriate carbon substrates are available, microbial communities are able to develop a range of activities which are crucial in... -
Selecting arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi for field application
Sustainable land use requires that soil management practices be adopted to conserve and augment soil resources. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF)... -
Rhizosphere Biology
Plant growth and devleopment are controlled largely by the soil environment in the root region, an environment which the plant itself helps to create... -
Cold-storage of mixed inoculum of Glomus intraradices enhances root colonization, phosphorus status and growth of hot pepper
Growth response of hot pepper ( Capsicum annuum L.) inoculated with the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus, Glomus intraradices Schenck and Smith was...
-
Potential of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi for bioremediation
Bioremediation is the use of organisms for the treatment of soil pollution. Root colonizing symbiotic microorganisms such as arbuscular mycorrhizal... -
A novel inserted membrane technique for studies of mycorrhizal extraradical mycelium
A simple "inserted membrane technique" (IMT) for sampling mycorrhizal extraradical mycelium (ERM) was developed as an alternative to the commonly...
-
An arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus accelerates decomposition and acquires nitrogen directly from organic material
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (order Glomales), which form mycorrhizal symbioses with two out of three of all plant species
1 , are believed to be... -
Arbuscular mycorrhizal infection changes the bacterial 16 S rDNA community composition in the rhizosphere of maize
Mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal (NM) maize plants were grown for 4 or 7 weeks in an autoclaved quartz sand-soil mix. Half of the NM plants were...

Response of neem (Azadirachta indica A. Juss) to indigenous arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, phosphate-solubilizing and asymbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria under tropical nursery conditions
Neem ( Azadirachta indica A. Juss) seedlings were inoculated with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, Glomus intraradices Schenck and Smith and G....
