Relationship of extra-matrical hyphae of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to plant growth response

Creator:

Kough, John Lawrence

Abstract:

The colonization of several species of plants by vesicularar-buscular mycorrhizae (VAM) was studied to determine how host, soil, or symbiont factors interacted to enhance growth of the host plant. Seedlings of two species of the Cuppressaceae and two of the Taxodiaceae formed VAM; colonization significantly improved growth. This response to...

Microbial changes and interactions in the rhizosphere of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal plants

Creator:

Meyer, Julie (Julie Rae)

Abstract:

The influence of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizae (VAM) on populations of general taxonomic and functional groups of naturally-occurring rhizosphere bacteria and actinomycetes associated with roots of sweet corn (Zea mays var. rugosa) and subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.) was assayed using selective media. Sporangial production by Phytophthora cinnamomi was also used as...
