Plant compartment and biogeography affect microbiome composition in cultivated and native Agave species (2015, background): “Also, previous reports in which either mycorrhizal or endophytic fungi were found to promote plant growth in Agave species (Cui & Nobel, 1992; Obledo et al., 2003) suggest that the Agave microbiome plays an important role in the fitness and productivity of this genus.”
The potential contribution of plant growth-promoting bacteria to reduce environmental degradation – A comprehensive evaluation (2012, background): “AM fungi are recognized as an essential component of plant–soil systems in deserts (Bashan et al., 2000b, 2007; Bethlenfalvay et al., 1984; Carrillo-Garcia et al., 1999; Cui and Nobel, 1992; Nobel, 1996; Requena et al., 2001).”
Quantification of mycorrhizal water uptake via high-resolution on-line water content sensors (2011, background): “2 and is highly significant between the AMF and non-AMF treatments (p<0.000001) and much more so than comparable values in the literature (p<0.05, Faber et al. 1991; p< 0.10, Cui and Nobel 1992).”
