Arsenic uptake and toxicity in plants: integrating mycorrhizal influences (2010, background): “Separate Pi transporters play key roles in the direct and AM uptake pathways, with AM-inducible plant transporters expressed in colonised cells in the root cortex of both responsive and non-responsive plants (Bucher 2006; Javot et al. 2007; Rausch et al. 2001; Smith et al. 2003a) (see Fig.”

Traits related to differences in function among three arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (2011, background): “For a closely related Gigaspora rosea, congruent results were obtained, showing very limited expansion of hyphae into root-free zones ( Smith et al. 2003, 2004 ).”
Sanctions, Cooperation, and the Stability of Plant-Rhizosphere Mutualisms (2008, background): “…that the repeated failure of certain AMF strains to provide a measurable benefit (Burleigh et al. 2002; Graham & Abbott 2000; Koch et al. 2006; Smith et al. 2003, 2004; Violi et al. 2007) is not solely a question of context, but could also represent a successful evolutionary strategy (Kiers &…”
Occurrence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in mining-impacted sites and their contribution to ecological restoration: Mechanisms and applications (2017, background): “…by AMF are summarized as follows: (1) compared to plant roots, AMF extraradical hyphae can absorb P directly and translocate it more rapidly (Smith et al., 2003); (2) AMF have a higher affinity towards P, and the transport of P is much faster in hyphae than in roots (Harrison, 1999); (3)…”
Are the rates of photosynthesis stimulated by the carbon sink strength of rhizobial and arbuscular mycorrhizal symbioses (2009, background): “AM symbioses improve P acquisition by plants because the extraradical mycelium grows beyond the nutrient depletion zone of the root system (Khaliq and Sanders, 2000; Smith et al., 2003; Grimoldi et al., 2005; Cardoso and Kuyper, 2006).”
Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis alleviates drought stress imposed on Knautia arvensis plants in serpentine soil (2013, methodology): “In addition, mycorrhizal growth dependence (MGD) was calculated according to Smith et al. (2003), as the percentage increase in shoot DW of an individual mycorrhizal plant above the mean performance of non-mycorrhizal plants in the same respective water regime [MGD = 100 × (DW of an individual mycor”
Trade-Offs in Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis: Disease Resistance, Growth Responses and Perspectives for Crop Breeding (2017, positive): “Plant growth and abiotic stresses Increased biomass [2,39–45] Reduced biomass [46–52] Phosphate acquisition [45,46,53–57] Reduced phosphate [2,27,47,58,59] Nitrogen (ammonium) acquisition [4,60–66] Water acquisition [67,68] Zinc acquisition [5,6] Drought tolerance [67,68] Salinity tolerance [29,69–7”
Diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in the roots of perennial plants and their effect on plant performance (2004, background): “As for the phosphorus uptake, the provision of the nutrient by AM fungi can reach 100% of the plant’s P uptake (Smith et al. 2003).”
Facilitated legume nodulation, phosphate uptake and nitrogen transfer by arbuscular inoculation in an upland rice and mung bean intercropping system (2009, background): “It has been reported that AM fungal hyphae are the dominant routes of inorganic P acquisition from soil (or culture medium) whether the plant growth or total P uptake have been improved or not (Li et al. 2006; Smith et al. 2003, 2004 ).”
What is the significance of the arbuscular mycorrhizal colonisation of many economically important crop plants? (2011, methodology): “ Joner et al. (2000) pointed out that difficulty in maintaining soilbased systems free of microbes other than the AM fungi hampered unambiguous conclusion that the latter were responsible for mineralisation, especially as the surface of hyphae may be enriched with bacteria relative to bulk soil.”
ROOT STRATEGIES FOR PHOSPHORUS ACQUISITION (2008, background): “The large majority of P taken up by plant roots is in the form of orthophosphate (Pi; Smith et al. 2003).”
