Maize drought tolerance: Potential improvements through arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis? (2008, background): “In existing conventional production systems based upon high fertilizer and fungicide inputs, simplistic crop rotations or continuous maize monocultures, and intensive tillage practices, the growth of AM-symbiotic hybrids will likely need tobeaccompaniedby theadoptionof croppingpracticeswhich favor A”
Plant and microbial strategies to improve the phosphorus efficiency of agriculture (2011, background): “Consequently, it has been suggested that there may be benefits to production by managing crop rotations to reduce AM fungal colonisation or by breeding plants for less colonisation (Ryan and Graham 2002; Ryan et al. 2005).”
Arbuscular mycorrhizae in wheat and field pea crops on a low P soil: increased Zn-uptake but no increase in P-uptake or yield (2003, background): “However, few studies of commercial broadacre crops report the role of AMF in crop growth as large enough to warrant their consideration by farmers (Ryan and Graham, 2002).”
Reduced growth of autumn-sown wheat in a low-P soil is associated with high colonisation by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (2005, unknown): “Parasitic impacts from AMF are often not considered in agricultural studies, even though there is only limited evidence that AMF make a positive contribution to crop and pasture growth (Ryan and Graham, 2002).”
Mycorrhizal responsiveness of aerobic rice genotypes is negatively correlated with their zinc uptake when nonmycorrhizal (2007, background): “It was then implied that there is considerable potential for redesigning crops that show an enhanced dependency on and responsiveness to AMF ( Ryan and Graham 2002 ).”
ROOT STRATEGIES FOR PHOSPHORUS ACQUISITION (2008, background): “The greater metabolic burden of mycorrhizal roots may contribute to the non-beneficial or even parasitic role that mycorrhizal fungi play in agroecosystems (Ryan and Graham 2002).”
Mycorrhizas and tropical soil fertility (2006, background): “Whereas the increased interest in mycorrhizas in temperate cropping systems has received an impetus through the transformation towards organic farming (Mäder et al., 2002; Ryan and Graham, 2002), the situation in the tropics is very different.”
What is the significance of the arbuscular mycorrhizal colonisation of many economically important crop plants? (2011, background): “Not surprisingly therefore, a role for AM symbiosis in production agriculture has been questioned ( Ryan and Graham 2002 ), and it has even been suggested that in the wheat belt of SE Australia there should be selection of wheat (Triticum aestivum) varieties for low AM colonisation to improve growth”
Impact of abiotic factors on development of the community of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in the soil: a Review (2018, background): “Soil contamination with zinc is also toxic for plants and, at the same time, antagonistic during phosphorus uptake (Ryan and Graham, 2002).”
Wheat Responses to Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi in a Highly Calcareous Soil Differ from those of Clover, and Change with Plant Development and P supply (2005, background): “It is widely believed that wheat is unlikely to benefit from AM colonisation (Ryan and Graham, 2002).”
Rhizoeconomics: Carbon costs of phosphorus acquisition (2005, background): “The greater metabolic burden of mycorrhizal roots may contribute to the nonbeneficial or even parasitic role that mycorrhizal fungi play in many agroecosystems (Ryan and Graham, 2002).”
