Relationships among arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, vascular plants and environmental conditions in oak savannas (2004, background): “• Numbers of AMF and plant species at the point scale were positively correlated with each other and increased with soil texture/N content.”
Arbuscular mycorrhizae and terrestrial ecosystem processes (2004, background): “…of mycorrhizal fungi can have strong influences on plant community composition (Grime et al. 1987; Gange et al. 1993; van der Heijden et al. 1998; Hartnett & Wilson 1999, 2002; Klironomos et al. 2000; O'Connor et al. 2002; van der Heijden 2002; Stampe & Daehler 2003; Johnson et al. 2003a).”
A meta-analysis of context-dependency in plant response to inoculation with mycorrhizal fungi. (2010, background): “…U C T I O N Most plant species belong to families that typically form root symbioses with mycorrhizal fungi, often with dramatic consequences for plant growth and reproduction (Koide 2000), plant community structure (Grime et al. 1987; Hartnett & Wilson 2002) and ecosystem functions (Rillig 2004).”
Networks of power and influence: the role of mycorrhizal mycelium in controlling plant communities and agroecosystem functioning (2004, background): “…costs and benefits are not shared equally It is increasingly apparent that the C costs and functional “benefits” to plants of linking to ERMM networks are fungal specific and, because of variations in physiology and host specificity, are not shared equally amongst plants (Hartnett and Wilson 2002).”
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal effects on plant competition and community structure (2015, background): “Apart from this, field plants may experience high grazing intensity from herbivores, leading to carbon limitation (Hartnett & Wilson 2002).”
Endophytic fungi alter relationships between diversity and ecosystem properties (2004, background): “Mycorrhizal fungi have received the most attention, as mycorrhizal associations can affect the composition of plant communities (Kiers et al. 2000; Hartnett & Wilson 2002) and the success of invasive species (Richardson et al. 2000).”
The invasive plant species Centaurea maculosa alters arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities in the field (2006, unknown): “The AMF community composition of different sites may make them more or less amenable to establishment of specific plant species (Van der Heijden et al. 1998; Klironomos 2002, 2003; Hart et al. 2003 ): hence, plant-facilitated alteration of AMF communities may have relevance to ecosystem restoration”
Exploring functional definitions of mycorrhizas: Are mycorrhizas always mutualisms? (2004, background): “So far, the findings vary, with activity and (or) diversity of AM fungi sometimes associated with an increased diversity and (or) productivity of reconstructed plant communities and sometimes not (see Hartnett and Wilson 2002; Urcelay and Diaz 2003).”
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi influence visitation rates of pollinating insects (2005, background): “It is known that mycorrhizas can change the structure of plant communities through differential effects on growth and competition (Hartnett & Wilson, 2002) but these results suggest that they may have other, more subtle effects on plant population genetic structure also.”
Plant coexistence and the niche (2004, background): “... resources can also involve microbial mediation (Box 1). Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) have higher diversity and can be more specific in their relationships with plants than was once thought [45,46], which explains experimental evidence that plant diversity can depend upon AMF diversity [47]”
Inoculation with a Native Soil Community Advances Succession in a Grassland Restoration (2012, background): “…likely that the spread of soil pathogens plays a role in suppressing early successional plant species (Van der Putten et al. 1993; Kardol et al. 2006) and that the spread of prairie AMF contributed to the beneficial effects observed in late successional plant species (Hartnett & Wilson 1999, 2002).”
