Arbuscular mycorrhizal networks: process and functions. A review (2010, background): “…impact on nutrient uptake and growth of banana (Jaizme-Vega and Azcon, 1995; Yano-Melo et al., 1999), improved resistance to abiotic stresses (Rufyikiri et al., 2000; Ruiz-Lozano, 2003) and biotic stresses caused by nematodes (Jaizme-Vega et al., 1997; Elsen et al., 2001) and Fusarium…”
Phytoremediation of Metals Using Transgenic Plants (2002, background): “Rhizosphere microbes can also affect plant uptake of metals: bacteria have been reported to enhance uptake of Se and Hg (de Souza et al., 1999), and mycorrhizae were reported to reduce metal uptake, leading to enhanced tolerance (Frey et al., 2000; Rufyikiri et al., 2000).”
Current advances in mycorrhization in microporopagation (2001, unknown): “Similarly, AMF might alleviate aluminum toxicity (Gervais et al., 2000).”
