Comparing the effectiveness of mycorrhizal inoculation and amendment with sugar beet, rock phosphate and Aspergillus niger to enhance field performance of the leguminous shrub Dorycnium pentaphyllum L.
TL;DR: Mycorrhizal inoculation treatments stimulated significantly the production of shoot biomass, to a higher extent than the addition of the amendment alone to soil or the combined treatment, and in the seedlings inoculated with G. deserticola.

TL;DR: Results show that one effective way of restoring degraded lands is to increase the number of plant species used, which would increase the AMF diversity in the soil and thus the below-ground, positive interactions.

Microsite and mycorrhizal inoculum effects on the establishment of Quercus coccifera in a semi-arid degraded steppe
TL;DR: The results support the idea of a facilitative effect of S. tenacissima on introduced shrubs, which may be related to improved environmental conditions in tussock microsites, but this effect may not be enough for the establishment of seedlings in years with below-average rainfall and a strong summer drought.

Modularity Reveals the Tendency of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi To Interact Differently with Generalist and Specialist Plant Species in Gypsum Soils
E. Torrecillas,Maria del Mar Alguacil,Antonio Roldán,G. Díaz,Alicia Montesinos-Navarro,M. P. Torres +5 more
TL;DR: Modularity analysis revealed that soil type can be a major factor shaping AMF communities, and some AMF groups showed a tendency to interact differently with plants that had distinct ecological strategies (gypsophytes and gypsovags).

A mycorrhizal survey of plants growing on mine wastes in southeast Spain
G. Díaz,M. Honrubia +1 more
TL;DR: The mycorrhizal population level was adversely affected by soil degradation, with the lowest values of mycor rhizal colonization and spore numbers occurring in the most disturbed sites and in addition, seasonal differences in the incidence of myCorrhizae were observed.
