Arbuscular mycorrhizal networks: process and functions. A review (2010, background): “Nitrogen transfer at the mycorrhizal interface As well as benefiting plants by aiding phosphorus uptake from soil (Harrison and van Buuren, 1995), AM fungi can take up and transfer significant amounts of inorganic nitrogen (NH+4 or NO − 3 ) to their host plants (He et al., 2003).”
Nitrogen Transfer Between Plants: A 15N Natural Abundance Study with Crop and Weed Species (2006, background): “There is evidence to suggest that plants also might be able to acquire N transferred from neighboring plants (He et al., 2003; Simard et al., 2002).”
How mycorrhizal associations drive plant population and community biology (2020, background): “to the actinorhizal Casuarina cunninghamiana (37) runs counter to the hypothesis of nutrientmovement from nitrogen-fixing plants to other plants and suggests that the mechanisms determining actual N transfer rates are not fully understood.”
Arbuscular Mycorrhizas: Drivers or Passengers of Alien Plant Invasion (2009, background): “The findings that AMF facilitate N uptake by host plants (He et al., 2003) in different forms and even aid in N transfer from one plant to another (Govindarajalu et al., 2005) need to be put in the right perspective in respect of invasive plants, the establishment and subsequent spread of which is…”
Mycorrhizal Fungi to Alleviate Drought Stress on Plant Growth (2014, background): “Even though few studies have investigated N uptake, an increased uptake of ammonium by fungal hyphae and the significant transfer of N from the fungus to the roots have been demonstrated (He et al. 2003), especially under drought conditions (Subramanian and Charest 1999).”
Dominant plant species shift their nitrogen uptake patterns in response to nutrient enrichment caused by a fungal fairy in an alpine meadow (2011, unknown): “AMF are mainly associated with P uptake, but numerous studies suggest that they can participate in N acquisition by plants from OM (e.g., Hodge et al. 2001; He et al. 2003; Govindarajulu et al. 2005; Lambers et al. 2008; Hodge and Fitter 2010).”
Intercropping with legume for agroecological cropping systems: Complementarity and facilitation processes and the importance of soil microorganisms. A review (2017, background): “13 cultivars by extending AM mycelia from the roots of one plant to those of another (He et al., 2003; Johansen and Jensen, 1996).”
On the success and failure of mixed-species tree plantations: lessons learned from a model system of Eucalyptus globulus and Acacia mearnsii (2005, background): “, 1995; Fisher and Binkley, 2000; May and Attiwill, 2003); (2) nitrogen may also be transferred between plants via root exudation or mycorrhizal connections between root systems when both species form symbioses with the same mycorrhiza (He et al., 2003).”
Occurrence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in mining-impacted sites and their contribution to ecological restoration: Mechanisms and applications (2017, background): “Once these CMNs are formed, AMF can modify the relationships between plants by transferring nutrients within and between plants (He et al., 2003).”
Facilitative Root Interactions in Intercrops (2005, background): “A bi-directional transfer of nutrients by AM warrants further investigation (He et al., 2003) including development of experimental designs and tracers to provide nutrient movement informations.”
Cotton–cowpea intercropping and its N2 fixation capacity improves yield of a subsequent maize crop under Zimbabwean rain-fed conditions (2006, background): “1998), and evidence shows that mycorrhizal connections between the intercropped components may provide a route of N transfer (He et al. 2003).”
Mycorrhizal Networks Facilitate Tree Communication, Learning, and Memory (2018, background): “In other plant and tree communities, network-mediated nitrogen fluxes from N2-fixing plants have supplied up to 40% of receiver N to non-N2-fixing plants, and this has been associated with increased plant productivity (e.g., He et al. 2003, 2005, 2009).”
