Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in a chronosequence of 5–42-year-old Caragana korshinskii plantations in the semi-arid Loess Plateau region of northwestern China were investigated. AM fungi colonization, spore diversity and PCR-denatured gradient gel electrophoresis-based AM fungal SSU rRNA gene sequences were analyzed. AM fungi colonization [measured as the percent of root length (%RLC), vesicular (%VC) and arbuscular (%AC) colonization] and spore density were significantly correlated with sampling month, but not with plant age, except for %RLC. The percent of vesicular colonization was negatively correlated with soil total nitrogen and organic carbon, and spore density was negatively correlated with soil moisture and available phosphorus. Ten distinguishable AM fungal spore morphotypes, nine Glomus and one Scutellospora species, were found. Nine AM fungal Glomus phylotypes were identified by sequencing, but at each sampling time only four to six AM fungal phylotypes were detected. The AM fungal community was significantly seasonal, whereas the AM fungal species richness did not increase with plantation age. A significant change in AM fungal colonization and community composition over an annual cycle was observed in this study, and our results suggest that the changes of AM are the product of the interaction between host phenology, soil characteristics and habitat. Understanding these interactions is essential if habitat restoration is to be effective. 相似文献

Arbuscular mycorrhizal community composition associated with two plant species in a grassland ecosystem 总被引:35,自引:0,他引:35

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are biotrophic symbionts colonizing about two-thirds of land plant species and found in all ecosystems. They are of major importance in plant nutrient supply and their diversity is suggested to be an important determinant of plant community composition. The diversity of the AM fungal community composition in the roots of two plant species (Agrostis capillaris and Trifolium repens) that co-occurred in the same grassland ecosystem was characterized using molecular techniques. We analysed the small subunit (SSU) ribosomal RNA gene amplified from a total root DNA extract using AM fungal-specific primers. A total of 2001 cloned fragments from 47 root samples obtained on four dates were analysed by restriction fragment length polymorphism, and 121 of them were sequenced. The diversity found was high: a total of 24 different phylotypes (groups of phylogenetically related sequences) colonized the roots of the two host species. Phylogenetic analyses demonstrate that 19 of these phylotypes belonged to the Glomaceae, three to the Acaulosporaceae and two to the Gigasporaceae. Our study reveals clearly that the AM fungal community colonizing T. repens differed from that colonizing A. capillaris, providing evidence for AM fungal host preference. In addition, our results reveal dynamic changes in the AM fungal community through time. 相似文献

AM真菌能够影响植物生态系统的群落结构.以亚热带草地生态系统为研究对象,调查了两块草地中优势种和从属种的菌根,并在盆栽试验中比较了优势种和从属种对AM真菌的土著菌种和外源菌种Glomus mosseae的生长反应、养分吸收.结果表明,两块草地各自的优势种藿香蓟和两耳草对土著菌种的菌根依赖性分别是41.5%和77.4%,远远高于从属种莎草和毛蓼(16.0%和7.9%);但是它们对Glomus mosseae的菌根依赖性有所变化,分别是79.6%、44.2%、74.1%和24.9%.这表明,土著菌种是优势种和从属种的形成机制之一,而外源菌种可能改变基于土著菌种而形成的植物群落结构.植株磷营养的分析结果表明,AM真菌对优势种和从属种生长的促进与对磷吸收的促进高度相关,表明AM真菌促进养分吸收是其影响植物群落结构的机制之一. 相似文献

The processes responsible for producing and maintaining the diversity of natural arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal communities remain largely unknown. We used natural CO(2) springs (mofettes), which create hypoxic soil environments, to determine whether a long-term, directional, abiotic selection pressure could change AM fungal community structure and drive the selection of particular AM fungal phylotypes. We explored whether those phylotypes that appear exclusively in hypoxic soils are local specialists or widespread generalists able to tolerate a range of soil conditions. AM fungal community composition was characterized by cloning, restriction fragment length polymorphism typing, and the sequencing of small subunit rRNA genes from roots of four plant species growing at high (hypoxic) and low (control) geological CO(2) exposure. We found significant levels of AM fungal community turnover (β diversity) between soil types and the numerical dominance of two AM fungal phylotypes in hypoxic soils. Our results strongly suggest that direct environmental selection acting on AM fungi is a major factor regulating AM fungal communities and their phylogeographic patterns. Consequently, some AM fungi are more strongly associated with local variations in the soil environment than with their host plant's distribution. 相似文献

Background and aims
The effect of plant species on their root-associated arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi is well studied, but how this effect operates at the cultivar level remains poorly understood. This study investigates how wheat cultivars shape their AM fungal communities.Methods
Twenty-one new wheat cultivars were traditionally cultivated in a dryland of northwestern China, and their agronomic traits, soil characteristics and the abundance and community composition of AM fungi were measured.Results
Both spore community in soils and AM fungal phylotypes inside roots were significantly influenced by cultivar even though hyphal abundance, spore density and AM fungal diversity were similar across cultivars. Three out of 16 AM fungal phylotypes interacted with most cultivars, whilst some phylotypes preferred to colonize cultivars with similar agronomic traits. Six wheat cultivars, all which had hosted 6 AM fungal phylotypes, seemed to be generalists. Nestedness analysis and stochastic model fitting revealed that the AM fungal communities colonizing roots were codetermined by deterministic and stochastic processes.Conclusions
A complex pattern of cultivar-AM fungal interactions was observed in this study, and our results highlight that the host effect on the community assembly of AM fungi could be operating on the level of plant cultivar. 相似文献6.

Communities of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi were investigated in Stipa krylovii, Leymus chinensis (Poaceae), Allium bidentatum (Liliaceae), and Astragalus brevifolius (Fabaceae) in the Mongolian steppe to examine the effect of plant species on the communities in this study. The AM fungal communities were examined by molecular analysis based on the partial sequences of a small subunit of the ribosomal RNA gene. The sequences obtained were divided into 23 phylotypes by the sequence similarity >98%. Many of the AM fungal phylotypes included AM fungi previously detected in high-altitude regions in the Tibet and Loes plateaus, which suggested that these AM fungi may have wide distribution with stressful conditions of aridity and coldness. Among the 23 phylotypes, 12 phylotypes were found in all four plants, and 87.4% of the all obtained sequences were affiliated into these 12 types. For the distribution of the AM fungal phylotypes, overlapping of the phylotypes among the four plant species were significantly higher than that simulated by random chance. These results suggested that AM fungal communities were less diversified among the examined plant species. 相似文献

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and dark septate endophytic (DSE) fungi are rarely studied at extremely high elevations. Here, AM and DSE colonization in two dominant plant species (Melandrium apetalum and Poa litwinowiana) were microscopically observed on the forefront of Zhadang Glacier (5,500 m above sea level) in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, China. The AM fungal taxa were also identified by molecular methods. Both AM and DSE fungi synchronously colonized these two plant species, but AM dominated in M. apetalum and DSE dominated in P. litwinowiana. A total of five AM fungal spore morphotypes (Acaulospora capsicula, Diversispora sp., Glomus constrictum, G. eburneum and Glomus sp.) were found in the rhizosphere soils. Molecular identification revealed two AM fungal phylotypes: one Claroideoglomus phylotype from roots and one Diversispora phylotype from spores. These results extend the elevation at which both AM and DSE are known to occur. 相似文献

In the present study, we used PCR-Single-Stranded Conformation Polymorphism (SSCP) techniques to analyse arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) communities in four sites within a 10 km2 gypsum area in Southern Spain. Four common plant species from these ecosystems were selected. The AM fungal small-subunit (SSU) rRNA genes were subjected to PCR, cloning, SSCP analysis, sequencing and phylogenetic analyses. A total of 1443 SSU rRNA sequences were analysed, for 21 AM fungal types: 19 belonged to the genus Glomus , 1 to the genus Diversispora and 1 to the Scutellospora. Four sequence groups were identified, which showed high similarity to sequences of known glomalean species or isolates: Glo G18 to Glomus constrictum , Glo G1 to Glomus intraradices , Glo G16 to Glomus clarum , Scut to Scutellospora dipurpurescens and Div to one new genus in the family Diversisporaceae identified recently as Otospora bareai . There were three sequence groups that received strong support in the phylogenetic analysis, and did not seem to be related to any sequences of AM fungi in culture or previously found in the database; thus, they could be novel taxa within the genus Glomus : Glo G4, Glo G2 and Glo G14. We have detected the presence of both generalist and potential specialist AMF in gypsum ecosystems. The AMF communities were different in the plant studied suggesting some degree of preference in the interactions between these symbionts. 相似文献

Mechanical soil disturbance as a determinant of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities in semi-natural grassland 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
While the effect of disturbance on overall abundance and community composition of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi has been
researched in agricultural fields, less is known about the impact in semi-natural grasslands. We sampled two AM plant species,
Festuca brevipila and Plantago lanceolata, from an ongoing grassland restoration experiment that contained replicated plowed and control plots. The AM fungal community
in roots was determined using nested PCR and LSU rDNA primers. We identified 38 phylotypes within the Glomeromycota, of which
29 belonged to Glomus A, six to Glomus B, and three to Diversisporaceae. Only three phylotypes were closely related to known morphospecies. Soil disturbance significantly
reduced phylotype richness and changed the AM fungal community composition. Most phylotypes, even closely related ones, showed
little or no overlap in their distribution and occurred in either the control or disturbed plots. We found no evidence of
host preference in this system, except for one phylotype that preferentially seemed to colonize Festuca. Our results show that disturbance imposed a stronger structuring force for AM fungal communities than did host plants in
this semi-natural grassland. 相似文献

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal spores were isolated from field transplants and rhizosphere soil of Hedera rhombea (Miq) Bean and Rubus parvifolius L., which form Paris-type and Arum-type AM, respectively. DNA from the spore isolates was used to generate molecular markers based on partial large subunit (LSU) ribosomal RNA (rDNA) sequences to determine AM fungi colonizing field-collected roots of the two plant species. Species that were isolated as spores and identified morphologically and molecularly were Gigaspora rosea and Scutellospora erythropa from H. rhombea, Acaulospora longula and Glomus etunicatum from R. parvifolius, and Glomus claroideum from both plants. The composition of the AM fungal communities with respect to plant trap cultures was highly divergent between plant species. Analysis of partial LSU rDNA sequences amplified from field-collected roots of the two plant species with PCR primers designed for the AM fungi indicated that both plants were colonized by G. claroideum, G. etunicatum, A. longula, and S. erythropa. G. rosea was not detected in the field-collected roots of either plant species. Four other AM fungal genotypes, which were not isolated as spores in trap cultures from the two plant species, were also found in the roots of both plant species; two were closely related to Glomus intraradices and Glomus clarum. One genotype, which was most closely related to Glomus microaggregatum, was confined to R. parvifolius, whereas an uncultured Glomeromycotan fungus occurred only in roots of H. rhombea. S. erythropa was the most dominant fungus found in the roots of H. rhombea. The detection of the same AM fungal species in field-collected roots of H. rhombea and R. parvifolius, which form Paris- and Arum-type AM, respectively, shows that AM morphology in these plants is strongly influenced by the host plant genotypes as appears to be the case in many plant species in natural ecosystems, although there are preferential associations between the hosts and colonizing AM fungi in this study. 相似文献

The community structure of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi associated with Ixeris repens was studied in coastal vegetation near the Tottori sand dunes in Japan. I. repens produces roots from a subterranean stem growing near the soil surface which provides an opportunity to examine the effects of an environmental gradient related to distance from the sea on AM fungal communities at a regular soil depth. Based on partial sequences of the nuclear large subunit ribosomal RNA gene, AM fungi in root samples were divided into 17 phylotypes. Among these, five AM fungal phylotypes in Glomus and Diversispora were dominant near the seaward forefront of the vegetation. Redundancy analysis of the AM fungal community showed significant relationships between the distribution of phylotypes and environmental variables such as distance from the sea, water-soluble sodium in soil, and some coexisting plant species. These results suggest that environmental gradients in the coastal vegetation can be determinants of the AM fungal community. 相似文献

Septate endophytes proliferating in the roots of grasslands’ plants shed doubts on the importance of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbioses in dry soils. The functionality and diversity of the AM symbioses formed in four replicates of three adjacent plant communities (agricultural, native, and restored) in Grasslands National Park, Canada were assessed in periods of moisture sufficiency and deficiency typical of early and late summer in the region. The community structure of AM fungi, as determined by polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, varied with sampling time and plant community. Soil properties other than soil moisture did not change significantly with sampling time. The DNA sequences dominating AM extraradical networks in dry soil apparently belonged to rare taxa unreported in GenBank. DNA sequences of Glomus viscosum, Glomus mosseae, and Glomus hoi were dominant under conditions of moisture sufficiency. In total, nine different AM fungal sequences were found suggesting a role for the AM symbioses in semiarid areas. Significant positive linear relationships between plant P and N concentrations and active extraradical AM fungal biomass, estimated by the abundance of the phospholipid fatty acid marker 16:1ω5, existed under conditions of moisture sufficiency, but not under dry conditions. Active extraradical AM fungal biomass had significantly positive linear relationship with the abundance of two early season grasses, Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn. and Koeleria gracilis Pers., but no relationship was found under dry conditions. The AM symbioses formed under conditions of moisture sufficiency typical of early summer at this location appear to be important for the nutrition of grassland plant communities, but no evidence of mutualism was found under the dry conditions of late summer. 相似文献

Arbuscular mycorrhizal communities in tropical forests are affected by host tree species and environment 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are mutualists with plant roots that are proposed to enhance plant community diversity. Models indicate that AM fungal communities could maintain plant diversity in forests if functionally different communities are spatially separated. In this study we assess the spatial and temporal distribution of the AM fungal community in a wet tropical rainforest in Costa Rica. We test whether distinct fungal communities correlate with variation in tree life history characteristics, with host tree species, and the relative importance of soil type, seasonality and rainfall. Host tree species differ in their associated AM fungal communities, but differences in the AM community between hosts could not be generalized over life history groupings of hosts. Changes in the relative abundance of a few common AM fungal species were the cause of differences in AM fungal communities for different host tree species instead of differences in the presence and absence of AM fungal species. Thus, AM fungal communities are spatially distinguishable in the forest, even though all species are widespread. Soil fertility ranging between 5 and 9 Mg/ha phosphorus did not affect composition of AM fungal communities, although sporulation was more abundant in lower fertility soils. Sampling soils over seasons revealed that some AM fungal species sporulate profusely in the dry season compared to the rainy season. On one host tree species sampled at two sites with vastly different rainfall, relative abundance of spores from Acaulospora was lower and that of Glomus was relatively higher at the site with lower and more seasonal rainfall. 相似文献

Little is known about the ecology and diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in Arctic ecosystems. Here, the diversity and composition of the AM fungal community and its response to host plant community composition were studied in a low-Arctic meadow habitat. The natural vegetation in two low-Arctic meadow sites was manipulated. Plots with natural vegetation, monoculture and no vegetation were established. Seeds of Solidago virgaurea were sown into the plots and the AM fungal community in the seedling roots was analysed using the terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) method. The vegetation manipulation treatments affected the community composition but not the diversity of AM fungi found in S. virgaurea roots. The diversity of AM fungi was higher in S. virgaurea roots in the site with naturally higher plant species diversity. These results show that AM fungi in low-Arctic meadows are able to survive for a period of 2 yr without a host plant. This ability buffers the AM fungal community against short-term changes in host plant community composition and diversity. 相似文献

Microscopic evidence suggests that fungi forming endosymbioses with liverworts in the Marchantiales are arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi from the Glomeromycota. Polymerase chain reaction amplification of ribosomal sequences confirmed that endophytes of the New Zealand liverwort, Marchantia foliacea, were members of the genus Glomus. Endophytes from two Glomus rDNA phylotypes were repeatedly isolated from geographically separated liverwort samples. Multiple phylotypes were present in the same liverwort patch. The colonizing Glomus species exhibited substantial internal transcribed spacer sequence variation within phylotypes. This work suggests that certain liverwort species may serve as a model for studying DNA sequence variation in colonizing AM phylotypes and specificity in AM-host relationships. 相似文献

The community composition of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) was investigated in roots of four different plant species (Inula salicina, Medicago sativa, Origanum vulgare, and Bromus erectus) sampled in (1) a plant species-rich calcareous grassland, (2) a bait plant bioassay conducted directly in that grassland, and (3) a greenhouse trap experiment using soil and a transplanted whole plant from that grassland as inoculum. Roots were analyzed by AMF-specific nested polymerase chain reaction, restriction fragment length polymorphism screening, and sequence analyses of rDNA small subunit and internal transcribed spacer regions. The AMF sequences were analyzed phylogenetically and used to define monophyletic phylotypes. Overall, 16 phylotypes from several lineages of AMF were detected. The community composition was strongly influenced by the experimental approach, with additional influence of cultivation duration, substrate, and host plant species in some experiments. Some fungal phylotypes, e.g., GLOM-A3 (Glomus mosseae) and several members of Glomus group B, appeared predominantly in the greenhouse experiment or in bait plants. Thus, these phylotypes can be considered r strategists, rapidly colonizing uncolonized ruderal habitats in early successional stages of the fungal community. In the greenhouse experiment, for instance, G. mosseae was abundant after 3 months, but could not be detected anymore after 10 months. In contrast, other phylotypes as GLOM-A17 (G. badium) and GLOM-A16 were detected almost exclusively in roots sampled from plants naturally growing in the grassland or from bait plants exposed in the field, indicating that they preferentially occur in late successional stages of fungal communities and thus represent the K strategy. The only phylotype found with high frequency in all three experimental approaches was GLOM A-1 (G. intraradices), which is known to be a generalist. These results indicate that, in greenhouse trap experiments, it is difficult to establish a root-colonizing AMF community reflecting the diversity of these fungi in the field roots because fungal succession in such artificial systems may bias the results. However, the field bait plant approach might be a convenient way to study the influence of different environmental factors on AMF community composition directly under the field conditions. For a better understanding of the dynamics of AMF communities, it will be necessary to classify AMF phylotypes and species according to their life history strategies. 相似文献

The arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are a key, integral component of the stability, sustainability and functioning of ecosystems. In this study, we characterised the AMF biodiversity in a native vegetation soil and in a soil cultivated with Jatropha curcas or Ricinus communis, in a tropical system in Guantanamo (Cuba), in order to verify if a change of land use to biofuel plant production had any effect on the AMF communities. We also asses whether some soil properties related with the soil fertility (total N, Organic C, microbial biomass C, aggregate stability percentage, pH and electrical conductivity) were changed with the cultivation of both crop species. The AM fungal small sub-unit (SSU) rRNA genes were subjected to PCR, cloning, sequencing and phylogenetic analyses. Twenty AM fungal sequence types were identified: 19 belong to the Glomeraceae and one to the Paraglomeraceae. Two AMF sequence types related to cultured AMF species (Glo G3 for Glomus sinuosum and Glo G6 for Glomus intraradices-G. fasciculatum-G. irregulare) did not occur in the soil cultivated with J. curcas and R. communis. The soil properties (total N, Organic C and microbial biomass C) were higher in the soil cultivated with the two plant species. The diversity of the AMF community decreased in the soil of both crops, with respect to the native vegetation soil, and varied significantly depending on the crop species planted. Thus, R. communis soil showed higher AMF diversity than J. curcas soil. In conclusion, R. communis could be more suitable for the long-term conservation and sustainable management of these tropical ecosytems. 相似文献

Evidence for specificity of cultivable bacteria associated with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal spores
Bacteria associated with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal spores may play functional roles in interactions between AM fungi, plant hosts and defence against plant pathogens. To study AM fungal spore-associated bacteria (AMB) with regard to diversity, source effects (AM fungal species, plant host) and antagonistic properties, we isolated AMB from surface-decontaminated spores of Glomus intraradices and Glomus mosseae extracted from field rhizospheres of Festuca ovina and Leucanthemum vulgare. Analysis of 385 AMB was carried out by fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) profile analysis, and some also identified using 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. The AMB were tested for capacity to inhibit growth in vitro of Rhizoctonia solani and production of fluorescent siderophores. Half of the AMB isolates could be identified to species (similarity index 0.6) within 16 genera and 36 species. AMB were most abundant in the genera Arthrobacter and Pseudomonas and in a cluster of unidentified isolates related to Stenotrophomonas. The AMB composition was affected by AM fungal species and to some extent by plant species. The occurrence of antagonistic isolates depended on AM fungal species, but not plant host, and originated from G. intraradices spores. AM fungal spores appear to host certain sets of AMB, of which some can contribute to resistance by AM fungi against plant pathogens. 相似文献
