Change in soil properties and the soil microbial community following land spreading of olive mill wastewater affects olive trees key physiological parameters and the abundance of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (2008, background): “It has been estimated that in natural ecosystems plants colonised with AM may invest 10–20% of the photosynthetically fixed carbon in their fungal partners (Johnson et al., 2002).”
Tracking carbon from the atmosphere to the rhizosphere (2005, background): “Recent studies suggest that assimilated C can move very rapidly from plants into AM fungi and back to the atmosphere ( Johnson et al. 2002 ).”
Evaluation of methods to estimate production, biomass and turnover of ectomycorrhizal mycelium in forests soils : A review (2013, background): “One advantage with such cores is that they can be rotated regularly to detach fungal in-growth in order to function as controls with similar soil physical conditions but no, or little, fungal in-growth (Johnson et al., 2001, 2002a,b).”
Microbial interactions in the mycorrhizosphere and their significance for sustainable agriculture. (2004, background): “20% of the photosynthetically fixed carbon in their fungal partners [14].”
Arbuscular mycorrhizae and terrestrial ecosystem processes (2004, methodology): “Rotated in-growth cores A very noteworthy innovation is the rotated core design developed by Johnson et al. (2001, 2002).”
Arbuscular mycorrhizal networks: process and functions. A review (2010, background): “…and Rosling, 2006; Wallander, 2006; Helgason and Fitter, 2009), nutrient mobilization from organic substrates (Finlay, 2008), carbon cycling (Johnson et al., 2002), effects on plant communities and ecosystems, and mediation of plant responses to various environmental stresses, such as soil…”
Linking 3D Soil Structure and Plant-Microbe-Soil Carbon Transfer in the Rhizosphere (2018, background): “It has been shown that most of the plant C allocated to AM fungal hyphae is lost through respiration within 24 h (Johnson et al., 2002; De Deyn et al., 2011).”
Carbon flow in the rhizosphere: carbon trading at the soil–root interface (2009, methodology): “…measured in grassland ecosystems dominated by AM mycelia and found to be at least as large as that of fine roots, with at least 5.4–7.7% of the C lost by plants being respired from AM fungal mycelium and 3.9–6.2% being fixed in mycorrhizal mycelium within 21 h of labelling (Johnson et al. 2002).”
