Summary Young saplings ofTamarix aphylla were investigated for their growth intensity under saline irrigation, as well as for the lethal limits of salinity they can tolerate. The saplings were found to be quite sensitive to the addition of NaCl to the irrigation solutions and died when the concentration of the solutions was raised to about 0.7.M NaCl. Growth was depressed even by irrigation with a 0.1M NaCl solution, and no increase in the plant weight was obtained under irrigation with a 0.3M NaCl solution. It, thus, appears thatT. aphylla is not suitable for afforestation of saline habitats.Some aspects of the salt excretion ofT. aphylla were investigated. Sodium and chlorine were found to be excreted most readily and exhibit an optimum type of curve, when the excretion is plotted against the concentration of the irrigation solution. Interrelations between the various ions in the irrigation solutions and the amounts of salts excreted, were found to take place and to parallel the behaviour of these ions in their uptake by the roots.
T. aphylla seems to be able to reflect the soil's salinity and the composition of its salts, by the excreted salt crystals. 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

We carried out translocations of three rare plants that inhabit mineral islands in the marshy Biebrza Valley in order to create alternative populations and facilitate connectivity between existing subpopulations. The species chosen were Iris aphylla and two orchids: Cypripedium calceolus and Cephalanthera rubra. Thirty soil monoliths with vegetative orchid plants or parts of I. aphylla rhizomes were dug out and transplanted to three different sites on new mineral islands (half in 2012 and half in 2013). Prior to translocation, we measured soil moisture and pH and took phytosociological characteristics in 68 potential recipient sites for orchids and 15 for I. aphylla. Then, we monitored the number of shoots for 4 years and retrospectively conducted principal component analysis (PCA) in order to compare the similarity of donor sites and chosen recipient sites. Three years after transplantation we found new C. calceolus populations in good condition, I. aphylla populations in moderate, while C. rubra transplants emerged only in the first and second season. All newly established populations of C. calceolus and I. aphylla survived. In the case of the first species, fruiting was observed in two populations, while a marked increase in shoot number was observed in one population. The most successful C. calceolus translocation site was also the most similar to the donor sites according to PCA. 相似文献

To determine the developmental patterns of arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM) in three crucifers (Brassicaceae) of differing life histories, we inoculated seedlings of the annual Capsella bursa-pastoris, biennial Hesperis matronalis, and the perennial Matthiola incana with Glomus intraradices. The plants were grown either alone or in a matrix of living roots of the mycotrophic grass Sorghum sudanense. The percent root length colonized was greatest in C. bursa-pastoris and least in H. matronalis. Colonization was greater in plants grown in the grass matrix than in plants grown alone, and colonization in grass matrix-grown plants continued to increase over the 90-day growth period, whereas colonization leveled off or decreased near the end of the growth period in crucifers grown alone. No arbuscules were observed in crucifer roots at any time, which suggests that AM in these crucifers is nonfunctional. Furthermore, the increase in colonization only in pots with both crucifers and active mycotrophic roots suggests that AM development in crucifer roots is primarily the consequence of progressive root senescence in the crucifer and continued inoculum spread from the mycotrophic plant. 相似文献

Analysis of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal diversity through morphological characters of spores and intraradicular hyphae
has suggested previously that preferential associations occur between plants and AM fungi. A field experiment was established
to investigate whether AM fungal diversity is affected by different host plants in upland grasslands. Indigenous vegetation
from plots in an unimproved pasture was replaced with monocultures of either Agrostis capillaris or Lolium perenne. Modification of the diversity of AM fungi in these plots was evaluated by analysis of partial sequences in the large subunit
(LSU) ribosomal RNA (rDNA) genes. General primers for AM fungi were designed for the PCR amplification of partial sequences
using DNA extracted from root tissues of A. capillaris and L. perenne. PCR products were used to construct LSU rDNA libraries. Sequencing of randomly selected clones indicated that plant roots
were colonised by AM fungi belonging to the genera Glomus, Acaulospora and Scutellospora. There was a difference in the diversity of AM fungi colonising roots of A. capillaris and L. perenne that was confirmed by PCR using primers specific for each sequence group. These molecular data suggest the existence of a
selection pressure of plants on AM fungal communities. 相似文献

Tamarix aphylla is an evergreen tree that has invaded the drawdown zone of Lake Mead, a large reservoir on the Lower Colorado River. We performed
competition experiments between T. aphylla and T. ramosissima, and between T. aphylla and the native tree Salix gooddingii. Root:shoot ratios and biomass were higher in S. gooddingii than both Tamarix species, and T. ramosissima grew taller than T. aphylla and S. gooddingii when treatments with single plants and no competition were compared. Tamarix aphylla outcompeted the native S. gooddingii, but had competitive abilities that were slightly inferior to T. ramosissima. The competitive abilities of T. aphylla may and help explain why this species is not as widespread as its congeners, although because of T. aphylla's larger size, the species may be as serious a threat to native riparian ecosystems as T. ramosissima. These results indicate that management actions should be taken to ensure that T. aphylla does not further invade riparian ecosystems in the southwestern United States. 相似文献

The aims of the present study are to find out whether the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis on plant resistance
to water deficit are mediated by the endogenous abscisic acid (ABA) content of the host plant and whether the exogenous ABA
application modifies such effects. The ABA-deficient tomato mutant sitiens and its near-isogenic wild-type parental line were used. Plant development, physiology, and expression of plant genes expected
to be modulated by AM symbiosis, drought, and ABA were studied. Results showed that only wild-type tomato plants responded
positively to mycorrhizal inoculation, while AM symbiosis was not observed to have any effect on plant development in sitiens plants grown under well-watered conditions. The application of ABA to sitiens plants enhanced plant growth both under well-watered and drought stress conditions. In respect to sitiens plants subjected to drought stress, the addition of ABA had a cumulative effect in relation to that of inoculation with G. intraradices. Most of the genes analyzed in this study showed different regulation patterns in wild-type and sitiens plants, suggesting that their gene expression is modulated by the plant ABA phenotype. In the same way, the colonization
of roots with the AM fungus G. intraradices differently regulated the expression of these genes in wild-type and in sitiens plants, which could explain the distinctive effect of the symbiosis on each plant ABA phenotype. This also suggests that
the effects of the AM symbiosis on plant responses and resistance to water deficit are mediated by the plant ABA phenotype. 相似文献

Cereal phosphate transporters associated with the mycorrhizal pathway of phosphate uptake into roots 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A very large number of plant species are capable of forming symbiotic associations with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi.
The roots of these plants are potentially capable of absorbing P from the soil solution both directly through root epidermis
and root hairs, and via the AM fungal pathway that delivers P to the root cortex. A large number of phosphate (P) transporters
have been identified in plants; tissue expression patterns and kinetic information supports the roles of some of these in
the direct root uptake pathways. Recent work has identified additional P transporters in several unrelated species that are
strongly induced, sometimes specifically, in AM roots. The primary aim of the work described in this paper was to determine
how mycorrhizal colonisation by different species of AM fungi influenced the expression of members of the Pht1 gene families in the cereals Hordeum vulgare (barley), Triticum aestivum (wheat) and Zea mays (maize). RT-PCR and in-situ hybridisation, showed that the transporters HORvu;Pht1;8 (AY187023), TRIae;Pht1;myc (AJ830009) and ZEAma;Pht1;6 (AJ830010), had increased expression in roots colonised by the AM fungi Glomus intraradices,Glomus sp. WFVAM23 and Scutellospora calospora. These findings add to the increasing body of evidence indicating that plants that form AM associations with members of the
Glomeromycota have evolved phosphate transporters that are either specifically or preferentially involved in scavenging phosphate
from the apoplast between intracellular AM structures and root cortical cells. Operation of mycorrhiza-inducible P transporters
in the AM P uptake pathway appears, at least partially, to replace uptake via different P transporters located in root epidermis
and root hairs.

Clethra barbinervis (Ericales), Cucumis sativus, and Lycopersicon esculentum were grown in soils collected from six different vegetation sites (cedar, cypress, larch, red pine, bamboo grass, and Italian ryegrass), and morphology and colonization preference of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi were investigated by microscopic observation and PCR detection. C. barbinervis consistently formed Paris-type AM throughout the sites. C. sativus formed both Arum- and Paris-type AM with high occurrence of Arum-type AM. L. esculentum also formed both Arum- and Paris-type AM but with high occurrence of Paris-type AM. AM diversity within the same plant species was different among the sites. Detected AM diversity from AM spores in different site soils did not consistently reflect AM fungal diversity seen in test plants. Detected families were different, depending on test plants grown even in the same soil. AM fungi belonging to Glomaceae were consistently detected from roots of all test plants throughout the sites. Almost all the families were detected from roots of C. barbinervis and L. esculentum. On the other hand, only two or three families of AM fungi (Archaeosporaceae and/or Paraglomaceae and Glomaceae) but not two other families (Acaulosporaceae and Gigasporaceae) were detected from roots of C. sativus, indicating strong colonization preference of AM fungi to C. sativus among test plants. This study demonstrated that host plant species strongly influenced the colonization preference of AM fungi in the roots. 相似文献

Roots of Voyria truncata retain the primary root structure even though they can grow as thick as 2 mm in diameter. These root diameters are due to a retained capability for cell division in the cortex parenchyma. This is explained as a vital adaptation to its life form. Based on the extraradical mycelium, the mode of penetration, the structurally incompatible intraradical phase, the presence of intercellular vesicles in the root cortex, and the occurrence of immediate hyphal bridges from arbuscular mycorrhizal roots of neighbouring plants, the mycorrhiza of V. truncata is described as an arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM), although the characteristic arbuscles are missing. Special features of the AM in V. truncata are interpreted as an improved efficiency in taking advantage of the mycorrhiza. Root connections with roots of neighbouring plants are common and preferred locations for fungal infections. An evolutionary tendency towards parasitism of higher plants is discussed. 相似文献

- DNA methylation is an important epigenetic mechanism regulating gene expression in plants. DNA methylation has been shown to vary among species and also among plant tissues. However, no study has evaluated whether arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi affect DNA methylation levels in a tissue‐specific manner.
- We investigated whether symbiosis with AM fungi affects DNA methylation in the host, focusing on different plant tissues (roots versus leaves) and across time. We carried out a 6‐month pot experiment using Geranium robertianum in symbiosis with the AM fungus Funneliformis mosseae.
- Our results show that the pattern of total DNA methylation differed between leaves and roots and was related to when plants were harvested, confirming that DNA methylation is a process that occurs dynamically throughout an organism's lifetime. More importantly, the presence of AM fungus in roots of our experimental plants had a positive effect on total DNA methylation in both tissues.
- This study shows that colonisation by AM fungi can affect DNA methylation levels in their hosts and that plant DNA methylation varies in an age‐ and tissue‐specific manner.

Abstract The identity and status of the records of Iris aphylla L. for Italy are reconsidered. The authors are of the opinion that I. perrieri Simonet ex N. Service, present in Savoy, France, is genetically and morphologically distinct from I. aphylla, and that the Italian populations from Piemonte are in fact conspecific with I. perrieri. In addition, we consider that another iris, I. benacensis A. Kern. ex Stapf , which occurs near Lago di Garda (Mt. Brione) and is often also regarded as a synonym of I. aphylla, is not conspecific with either I. aphylla or I. perrieri. Macro-, micro-morphological and biosystematic data obtained during this investigation suggest a possible natural hybrid origin of these species and confirm the opinion of the authors, which is justified also by the different chromosome numbers and distribution of the taxa examined. 相似文献

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) have potential for the biocontrol of soil-borne
diseases. The objectives of this study were to quantify the interactions between AM fungi [Glomus versiforme (Karsten) Berch and Glomus mosseae (Nicol. & Gerd.) Gerdemann & Trappe] and PGPR [Bacillus polymyxa (Prazmowski) Mace and Bacillus sp.] during colonization of roots and rhizosphere of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) plants (cultivar Jinguan), and to determine their combined effects on the root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita, and on tomato growth. Three greenhouse experiments were conducted. PGPR increased colonization of roots by AM fungi, and
AM fungi increased numbers of PGPR in the rhizosphere. Dual inoculations of AM fungi plus PGPR provided greater control of
M. incognita and greater promotion of plant growth than single inoculations, and the best combination was G. mosseae plus Bacillus sp. The results indicate that specific AM fungi and PGPR can stimulate each other and that specific combinations of AM fungi
and PGPR can interact to suppress M. incognita and disease development. 相似文献

A microarray carrying 5,648 probes of Medicago truncatula root-expressed genes was screened in order to identify those that are specifically regulated by the arbuscular mycorrhizal
(AM) fungus Gigaspora rosea, by Pi fertilisation or by the phytohormones abscisic acid and jasmonic acid. Amongst the identified genes, 21% showed a common
induction and 31% a common repression between roots fertilised with Pi or inoculated with the AM fungus G. rosea, while there was no obvious overlap in the expression patterns between mycorrhizal and phytohormone-treated roots. Expression
patterns were further studied by comparing the results with published data obtained from roots colonised by the AM fungi Glomus mosseae and Glomus intraradices, but only very few genes were identified as being commonly regulated by all three AM fungi. Analysis of Pi concentrations in plants colonised by either of the three AM fungi revealed that this could be due to the higher Pi levels in plants inoculated by G. rosea compared with the other two fungi, explaining that numerous genes are commonly regulated by the interaction with G. rosea and by phosphate. Differential gene expression in roots inoculated with the three AM fungi was further studied by expression
analyses of six genes from the phosphate transporter gene family in M. truncatula. While MtPT4 was induced by all three fungi, the other five genes showed different degrees of repression mirroring the functional differences
in phosphate nutrition by G. rosea, G. mosseae and G. intraradices.

The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis is widespread throughout the plant kingdom and important for plant nutrition and ecosystem functioning. Nonetheless, most terrestrial ecosystems also contain a considerable number of non‐mycorrhizal plants. The interaction of such non‐host plants with AM fungi (AMF) is still poorly understood. Here, in three complementary experiments, we investigated whether the non‐mycorrhizal plant Arabidopsis thaliana, the model organism for plant molecular biology and genetics, interacts with AMF. We grew A. thaliana alone or together with a mycorrhizal host species (either Trifolium pratense or Lolium multiflorum) in the presence or absence of the AMF Rhizophagus irregularis. Plants were grown in a dual‐compartment system with a hyphal mesh separating roots of A. thaliana from roots of the host species, avoiding direct root competition. The host plants in the system ensured the presence of an active AM fungal network. AM fungal networks caused growth depressions in A. thaliana of more than 50% which were not observed in the absence of host plants. Microscopy analyses revealed that R. irregularis supported by a host plant was capable of infecting A. thaliana root tissues (up to 43% of root length colonized), but no arbuscules were observed. The results reveal high susceptibility of A. thaliana to R. irregularis, suggesting that A. thaliana is a suitable model plant to study non‐host/AMF interactions and the biological basis of AM incompatibility. 相似文献

Six species of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi (Glomus aggregatum, G. clarum, G. etunicatum, G. intraradices, G. mosseae and G. versiforme) were evaluated, in three greenhouse experiments, for their effects on reproduction of the root-lesion nematode, Pratylenchus penetrans, and growth of Ottawa 3 apple rootstock. Glomus mosseae increased total dry weights of nematode-inoculated and non-inoculated rootstock in all three greenhouse experiments, and G. intraradices increased dry weights in two of three greenhouse experiments. Plants inoculated with G. mosseae generally supported fewer P. penetrans per gram of root than plants inoculated with other AM fungi, but did not differ significantly from the controls in any greenhouse experiment. Colonization of roots by AM fungi was reduced by P. penetrans at initial inoculum densities greater than 250 nematodes/L soil. In field trials, preplant inoculation with either G. intraradices or G. mosseae increased rootstock growth and leaf concentrations of P, Mg, Zn and Cu in fumigated plots but not in non-fumigated plots, indicating that colonization by native AM fungi in non-fumigated plots may have been sufficient for adequate nutrient acquisition. The abundance of vesicles and arbuscules was greater in roots of plants inoculated with AM fungi before planting than in roots of non-inoculated plants, in both fumigated and non-fumigated plots. P. penetrans per gram of root and per 50 ml soil were significantly lower for G. mosseae- inoculated plants than for non-inoculated plants in fumigated soil but not in non-fumigated soil. 相似文献

The effect of arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) symbiosis on plant growth is associated with the balance between costs and benefits. A feedback regulation loop has been described in which the higher carbohydrate cost to plants for AM symbiosis is compensated by increases in their photosynthetic rates. Nevertheless, plant carbon balance depends both on photosynthetic carbon uptake and respiratory carbon consumption. The hypothesis behind this research was that the role of respiration in plant growth under AM symbiosis may be as important as that of photosynthesis. This hypothesis was tested in Arundo donax L. plantlets inoculated with Rhizophagus irregularis and Funneliformis mosseae. We tested the effects of AM inoculation on both photosynthetic capacity and in vivo leaf and root respiration. Additionally, analyses of the primary metabolism and ion content were performed in both leaves and roots. AM inoculation increased photosynthesis through increased CO2 diffusion and electron transport in the chloroplast. Moreover, respiration decreased only in AM roots via the cytochrome oxidase pathway (COP) as measured by the oxygen isotope technique. This decline in the COP can be related to the reduced respiratory metabolism and substrates (sugars and tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates) observed in roots. 相似文献

The current investigation was carried out to examine the role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in alleviating adverse effects of salt stress in Ephedra aphylla. The plants were exposed to 75 and 150 mM sodium chloride (NaCl) stress with and without application of AMF. Salt stress caused significant decrease in chlorophyll and carotenoid contents; however, the application of AMF restored the pigments content in salt-affected plants. Proline, phenols, and lipid peroxidation were increased with increasing concentration of NaCl, but lower accumulation has been reported in plants treated with AMF. NaCl stress also showed increase in different antioxidant enzymes activities (catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, peroxidase, glutathione reductase, and superoxide dismutase), and further increase was observed in plants treated with AMF. The nutrient uptake, Na+ and Na/K ratio increased and potassium and phosphorus were decreased with increasing concentration of NaCl in the present study. However, the colonization with AMF significantly increased K+ and P and reduced Na+ uptake. It is concluded that presown soil treatment with AMF reduced severity of salt stress in E. aphylla through alterations in physiological parameters, antioxidants and uptake of nutrients. 相似文献

Mycorrhizal fungi in roots of the achlorophyllous Petrosavia sakuraii (Petrosaviaceae) were identified by molecular methods. Habitats examined were plantations of the Japanese cypress Chamaecyparis obtusa in Honshu, an evergreen broad-leaved forest in Amami Island in Japan and a mixed deciduous and evergreen forest in China.
Aseptate hyphal coils were observed in root cortical cells of P. sakuraii, suggesting Paris-type arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM). Furthermore, hyphal coils that had degenerated to amorphous clumps were found in various
layers of the root cortex. Despite extensive sampling of P. sakuraii from various sites in Japan and China, most of the obtained AM fungal sequences of the nuclear small subunit ribosomal RNA
gene were nearly identical and phylogenetic analysis revealed that they formed a single clade in the Glomus group A lineage. This suggests that the symbiotic relationship is highly specific. AM fungi of P. sakuraii were phylogenetically different from those previously detected in the roots of some mycoheterotrophic plants. In a habitat
in C. obtusa plantation, approximately half of the AM fungi detected in roots of C. obtusa surrounding P. sakuraii belonged to the same clade as that of P. sakuraii. This indicates that particular AM fungi are selected by P. sakuraii from diverse indigenous AM fungi. The same AM fungi can colonize both plant species, and photosynthates of C. obtusa may be supplied to P. sakuraii through a shared AM fungal mycelial network. Although C. obtusa plantations are widely distributed throughout Japan, P. petrosavia is a rare plant species, probably because of its high specificity towards particular AM fungi. 相似文献
