Journal ArticleDOI
Uptake and transport of organic and inorganic nitrogen by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
TL;DR: It was found that although the arbuscular mycorrhizal isolates used contributed to the acquisition of N from both inorganic and organic sources by the host plants/roots used, this was not enough to increase the N nutritional status of the mycor rhizal compared to non-mycorrhIZal hosts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi in Uptake of Phosphorus and Nitrogen From Soil
TL;DR: This work has shown that the utilization of soil nutrients may depend more on efficient uptake of phosphate, nitrate, and ammonium from the soil solution even at low supply concentrations than on mobilization processes in the hyphosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extension of the phosphorus depletion zone in VA-mycorrhizal white clover in a calcareous soil
TL;DR: Mycorrhizal inoculation doubled P concentration in shoot and root, and increased dry weight, especially of the shoot, irrespective of P levels, and almost all of this P was delivered by the hyphae from the outer compartment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of va mycorrhizal fungi and rhizosphere microorganisms on root and shoot morphology, growth and water relations in maize
TL;DR: The results stress the necessity of detailed studies on root morphology for interpretation of effects of mycorrhizal fungi on mineral nutrient uptake and water relations in plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ammonium and nitrate uptake rates and rhizosphere pH in non-mycorrhizal roots of Norway spruce [ Picea abies (L.) Karst.]
TL;DR: In this article, the root zone temperature, concentrations and uptake rates of non-mycorrhizal roots of 4-year-old Norway spruce under controlled environmental conditions were studied.
