Journal ArticleDOI

The transcriptome of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus intraradices (DAOM 197198) reveals functional tradeoffs in an obligate symbiont

TL;DR: The first genome-wide analysis of the transcriptome from Glomus intraradices is reported, suggesting that the lack of a known sexual cycle in G. intrarodices is not a result of major deletions of genes essential for sexual reproduction and meiosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The heavy metal paradox in arbuscular mycorrhizas: from mechanisms to biotechnological applications

TL;DR: An overview of the contribution of AMF to plant HM acquisition and performance under deficient and toxic HM conditions is provided, and current knowledge of metal homeostasis mechanisms in arbuscular mycorrhizas is summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

GintAMT1 encodes a functional high-affinity ammonium transporter that is expressed in the extraradical mycelium of Glomus intraradices.

TL;DR: Data suggest that GintAMT1 is involved in NH(4)(+) uptake by the extraradical mycelia from the surrounding media when it is present at micromolar concentrations, as revealed by [(14)C]methylammonium uptake experiments carried out in yeast.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ecological and functional roles of mycorrhizas in semi-arid ecosystems of Southeast Spain

TL;DR: A comprehensive view of the mycorrhizal potential to improve the composition, diversity, structure and functionality of drought-adapted plant communities in the Region is lacking.
