Journal ArticleDOI

Nitrogen transfer in the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis

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

Genome of an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus provides insight into the oldest plant symbiosis

TL;DR: The genome of Rhizophagus irregularis provides insight into genes involved in obligate biotrophy and mycorrhizal symbioses and the evolution of an ancient asexual organism, and is of fundamental importance to the field of genome evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carbon Metabolism and Transport in Arbuscular Mycorrhizas

TL;DR: Colonization of the land by plants some 400 million years ago was associated with the colonization of their primitive roots by soil-borne filamentous fungi, and today, 90% to 95% of land plants still maintain some type of primitive root system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in Transcript Abundance in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii following Nitrogen Deprivation Predict Diversion of Metabolism

TL;DR: Comparative global analysis of transcripts under induced and noninduced conditions was applied as a first approach to studying molecular changes that promote or accompany triacylglycerol accumulation in cells encountering a new nutrient environment, and conclusions on metabolism based on transcriptional analysis are indirect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rubisco without the Calvin cycle improves the carbon efficiency of developing green seeds

TL;DR: In developing embryos of Brassica napus L. (oilseed rape), Rubisco (ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase) acts without the Calvin cycle and in a previously undescribed metabolic context to increase the efficiency of carbon use during the formation of oil.
