The role of arbuscular mycorrhizas in improving plant zinc nutrition under low soil zinc concentrations: a review (2008, background): “The addition of EDTA (a metal chelator) does not appear to significantly modify such responses (Chen et al. 2004); colonisation [maize inoculated with G.”
Combining alders, frankiae, and mycorrhizae for the revegetation and remediation of contaminated ecosystems (2007, background): “) AM: Glomus caledonium Calcareous sandy soil and loam soil, spiked with Zn (0–600 mg kg–1) Investigate Zn translocation and AM and plant response to Zn (Chen et al. 2004)”
Beneficial Soil Microorganisms, an Ecological Alternative for Soil Fertility Management (2011, background): “During the intra-radical phase, the colonisation of roots by AM fungi often decreases with increasing Zn addition to soil (Gildon and Tinker 1983; Bi et al. 2003; Chen et al. 2004), although also positive (Lee and George 2005) and neutral (Ortas et al.”
Contribution of Mycorrhizal Hyphae to the Uptake of Metal Cations by Cucumber Plants at Two Levels of Phosphorus Supply (2005, result): “This is in line with the observation of Chen et al. (2004) that Zn root-to-shoot translocation was not enhanced in maize plants upon mycorrhizal fungus colonization.”
