Reciprocal Rewards Stabilize Cooperation in the Mycorrhizal Symbiosis
E. Toby Kiers,Marie Duhamel,Marie Duhamel,Yugandhar Beesetty,Yugandhar Beesetty,Jerry A. Mensah,Oscar Franken,Erik Verbruggen,Carl R. Fellbaum,George A. Kowalchuk,Miranda M. Hart,Alberto Bago,Todd M. Palmer,Stuart A. West,Philippe Vandenkoornhuyse,Jan Jansa,Heike Bücking +16 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that, unlike many other mutualisms, the symbiont cannot be “enslaved,” and the mutualism is evolutionarily stable because control is bidirectional, and partners offering the best rate of exchange are rewarded.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nitrogen transfer in the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis
Manjula Govindarajulu,Philip E. Pfeffer,Hairu Jin,Jehad Abubaker,David D. Douds,James Allen,Heike Bücking,Peter J. Lammers,Yair Shachar-Hill +8 more
TL;DR: Results of stable isotope labelling experiments are reported showing that inorganic nitrogen taken up by the fungus outside the roots is incorporated into amino acids, translocated from the extraradical to the intraradical mycelium as arginine, but transferred to the plant without carbon.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon availability triggers fungal nitrogen uptake and transport in arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis
Carl R. Fellbaum,Emma W. Gachomo,Yugandhar Beesetty,Sulbha Choudhari,Gary D. Strahan,Philip E. Pfeffer,E. Toby Kiers,Heike Bücking +7 more
TL;DR: It is found that the C supply of the host plant triggers the uptake and transport of N in the symbiosis, and that the increase in N transport is orchestrated by changes in fungal gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fungal nutrient allocation in common mycorrhizal networks is regulated by the carbon source strength of individual host plants.
Carl R. Fellbaum,Jerry A. Mensah,Adam J. Cloos,Gary E. Strahan,Philip E. Pfeffer,E. Toby Kiers,Heike Bücking +6 more
TL;DR: This work demonstrates how fungal partners are able to retain bargaining power, despite being obligately dependent on their hosts, and biological market theory has emerged as a tool with which the strategic investment of competing partners in trading networks can be studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi in the Nitrogen Uptake of Plants: Current Knowledge and Research Gaps
Heike Bücking,Arjun Kafle +1 more
TL;DR: In this review, current knowledge about nitrogen transport through the fungal hyphae and across the mycorrhizal interface is summarized, and the regulation of these pathways and major research gaps are discussed.
