Journal ArticleDOI
Roles of Arbuscular Mycorrhizas in Plant Nutrition and Growth: New Paradigms from Cellular to Ecosystem Scales
Sally E. Smith,F. Andrew Smith +1 more
TL;DR: New physiological and molecular evidence shows that for phosphorus the mycorrhizal pathway (MP) is operational regardless of plant growth responses (positive or negative) and has important implications for consideration of AM symbioses in ecological, agronomic, and evolutionary contexts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Roles of Arbuscular Mycorrhizas in Plant Phosphorus Nutrition: Interactions between Pathways of Phosphorus Uptake in Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Roots Have Important Implications for Understanding and Manipulating Plant Phosphorus Acquisition
TL;DR: This finding demonstrates that the direct pathway delivers less P to AM plants than to NM counterparts and implies fungus-to-plant signaling, which helps to explain the persistence of AM symbiosis over evolutionary time, even in plants that apparently show no benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant and microbial strategies to improve the phosphorus efficiency of agriculture
Alan Richardson,Alan Richardson,Jonathan P. Lynch,Peter R. Ryan,Emmanuel Delhaize,F. Andrew Smith,Sally E. Smith,Paul R. Harvey,Megan H. Ryan,Erik J. Veneklaas,Hans Lambers,Astrid Oberson,Richard A. Culvenor,Richard J. Simpson,Richard J. Simpson +14 more
TL;DR: Evidence that more P-efficient plants can be developed by modifying root growth and architecture, through manipulation of root exudates or by managing plant-microbial associations such as arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and microbial inoculants is critically reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant performance in stressful environments: interpreting new and established knowledge of the roles of arbuscular mycorrhizas
TL;DR: The implications of recent results and ideas on AM symbioses are discussed, and the ways in which AM fungi may influence soil structure, carbon deposition in soil and interactions with the soil microbial and animal populations are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fresh perspectives on the roles of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in plant nutrition and growth
Sally E. Smith,F. Andrew Smith +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that poor plant growth is the result of P deficiency because AM fungi lower the amount of P taken up directly by roots but the AM uptake of P does compensate for the reduction.
