Diversity of communities of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi present in conventional versus low-input agricultural sites in eastern Pennsylvania, USA ☆
Marlise Franke-Snyder,David D. Douds,Larisa Galvez,John G. Phillips,P. Wagoner,Laurie E. Drinkwater,Joseph B. Morton +6 more
TL;DR: The results indicated that 15 consecutive years of farming under the three management practices did not cause many differences among the fungal communities, and supported the conclusion about the homogeneity of the communities in the different farming system/plant host combinations.

Effect of compost addition and crop rotation point upon VAM fungi
TL;DR: Crop rotation point had consistent, significant effects, with both lower populations of spores and less mycorrhizal infectivity of soil in plots in plots after the vegetable crop relative to maize and small grain.

Nitrate and ammonium uptake and solution pH changes for Al-tolerant and Al-sensitive sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) genotypes grown with and without aluminium
Larisa Galvez,R. B. Clark +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the same genotype of sorghum with tolerance and sensitivity to Al toxicity were grown with different nitrate/ammonium ratios (39:1, 9:1 and 3:1) at 0 and 300 μM Al to determine genotypic differences in nitrate and ammonium uptake, changes in nutrient solution pH, and relationships of these traits to toxicity tolerance in the genotypes.

Tillage and farming system affect AM fungus populations, mycorrhizal formation, and nutrient uptake by winter wheat in a high-P soil
TL;DR: Plants grown in chisel-disked plots had higher N and P utilization efficiencies than plants grown in no-tilled plots, and the nutrient-use efficiency of winter wheat depended on plant developmental stage, with a tendency for higher efficiency of the low-input plants at early growth stages, and of conventionally managed plants at more mature stages.

An overwintering cover crop increases inoculum of VAM fungi in agricultural soil
TL;DR: Just one season of an overwintering cover crop of hairy vetch increased the inoculum of VAM fungi the following spring before the next cash crop was planted, with the beneficial effect of the cover crop on VAM spore populations in soil was manifested in the spring.
