Using lipid analysis and hyphal length to quantify AM and saprotrophic fungal abundance along a soil chronosequence (2005, background): “…mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form extensive mycelia in soil (often constituting up to 30% of total soil microbial biomass) and play a significant role in the functioning of ecosystems (Read, 1991; van der Heijden et al., 1998; Olsson and Wilhelmsson, 2000; van der Heijden et al., 2003).”
Using glomalin as an indicator for arbuscular mycorrhizal hyphal growth: an example from a tropical rain forest soil (2004, methodology): “…than the peak annual hyphal production rates of 0.31 Mg ha21 yr21 estimated for North American prairie (Miller et al., 1995) and sand dune vegetation (0.28 Mg ha21 yr21, Olsson and Wilhelmsson, 2000), and are similar to estimates from pot cultures (0.78–1.20 Mg ha21 yr21, Abbott and Robson, 1985).”
Simulated Nitrogen Deposition Causes a Decline of Intra- and Extraradical Abundance of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Changes in Microbial Community Structure in Northern Hardwood Forests (2010, background): “In soils with an NLFA to PLFA 16:1x5c ratio greater than one, PLFA 16:1x5c can be assumed to be mainly derived from AMF (Olsson and others 1997; Olsson 1999; Olsson and Wilhelmsson 2000).”
