Journal ArticleDOI
Diversity and vertical distribution of indigenous arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi under two soybean rotational systems
TL;DR: AMF communities were clearly influenced by crop rotation, where the distribution of specific AMF phylotypes responded to the presence of the wheat crop.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of a 5-year winter cover crop rotational system on the molecular diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi colonizing roots of subsequent soybean
Masao Higo,Katsunori Isobe,Rhae A. Drijber,Takuya Kondo,Moe Yamaguchi,Saki Takeyama,Yasuhito Suzuki,Daisuke Niijima,Yukiya Matsuda,Ryuichi Ishii,Yoichi Torigoe +10 more
TL;DR: AMF communities in soybean roots were clearly influenced by rotation year suggesting that climate or other environmental factors were more important than winter cover cropping system management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Phosphorus Fertilization on Tomato Growth and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungal Communities.
TL;DR: A negative correlation between AMF colonization and richness in the roots of the tomato plants is found and whether and how AMF communities and P fertilization develop more effective P management for tomato plants needs to be investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inoculation with Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi or Crop Rotation with Mycorrhizal Plants Improves the Growth of Maize in Limed Acid Sulfate Soil
TL;DR: Spore density of AMF after cultivation of preceding crops was maintained in comparison to fallow leading to higher AMF colonization of maize and improved plant growth, which may be a viable strategy to improve maize growth in limed ASS of Thailand.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temporal variation of the molecular diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal communities in three different winter cover crop rotational systems
Masao Higo,Katsunori Isobe,Takuya Kondo,Moe Yamaguchi,Saki Takeyama,Rhae A. Drijber,Yoichi Torigoe +6 more
TL;DR: Diversity of AMF communities in soil was clearly shifted by rotation year, which indicated that other abiotic environmental factors may impact composition AMF Communities more than winter cover crop rotational systems.
