Are the rates of photosynthesis stimulated by the carbon sink strength of rhizobial and arbuscular mycorrhizal symbioses (2009, result): “In experiments with soybean (Ross, 1971; Kuo and Huang, 1982), all AM fungal species stimulated an increase in yield and harvest index, but in experiments with lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) and pea (Xavier and Germida, 2002, 2003) positive effects of AM colonization were not always evident.”
Soil microbial diversity and activity linked to crop yield and quality in a dryland organic wheat production system (2016, background): “Xavier and Germida (2003) identified increased pea yields when pea roots were colonized by mycorrhizae, relative to non-colonized plants.”
Efficacy of Biofertilizers: Challenges to Improve Crop Production (2016, background): “In non-legumes, nutrients uptake comparable to chemically fertilized plants have been reported with dual inoculations involving AMF and freeliving N-fi xing bacteria (Adesemoye et al. 2008 ; Barea et al. 2002 ; Lisette et al. 2003 ; Wang et al. 2011 ), also under dry conditions (Aseri et al. 2008 ).”
Exploring functional definitions of mycorrhizas: Are mycorrhizas always mutualisms? (2004, background): “In a pot study where inoculation with two AM fungi had no overall effect on growth or nutrient uptake by Pisum sativum, there was a strong interaction between a Rhizobium strain and an AM fungal isolate (Xavier and Germida 2003).”
