Mycorrhizal networks: Mechanisms, ecology and modelling (2012, positive): “Net C transfer between autotrophic plants has typically been small compared to the C fixed via photosynthesis (Deslippe and Simard, 2011; Smith and Read, 2008; Teste et al., 2010; Philip et al., 2010; Simard and Durall, 2004) and compared to the MN-derived C in MH and partial MH plants (Fig.”
The invasive plant species Centaurea maculosa alters arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities in the field (2006, positive): “The AMF form vast networks that potentially link plants within communities together, allowing for between-plant two-way trafficking of nutrient resources (Simard and Durall 2004).”
Use of 15N stable isotope to quantify nitrogen transfer between mycorrhizal plants (2009, background): “Without understanding twoway or net nutrient transfer between plants, it is difficult to understand the ecological or agricultural importance of CMNs (He et al. 2005, 2006; Leake et al. 2004; Newman 1988, 1992; Simard and Durall 2004).”
The rhizosphere zoo: An overview of plant-associated communities of microorganisms, including phages, bacteria, archaea, and fungi, and of some of their structuring factors (2009, background): “These extraradical mycelia can interconnect roots belonging to the same or to different plant species, and form common mycorrhizal networks that allow net transfer of carbon and nutrients between host plants (Simard and Durall 2004).”
Analysis of fungal networks (2012, background): “Indeed, mycelial fungi form the most extensive biological networks so far characterised, popularly known as the Wood Wide Web (Smith et al., 1992; Simard and Durall, 2004; Southworth et al., 2005; Selosse et al., 2006; Lamour et al., 2007; Whitfield, 2007; Boddy and Donnelly, 2008; Beiler et al.,…”
Translocation of nitrogen and carbon integrates biotic crust and grass production in desert grassland (2008, background): “…that N fixed by actinorhizal roots can move via EMF to the roots of non-N-fixing plants (Arnebrant et al. 1993), that N assimilated by sun-exposed plants can move to shaded plants (Simard & Durall 2004), and that N from EMF plants can be translocated to AMF plants (Ek et al. 1996; He et al. 2006).”
A meta-analysis of context-dependency in plant response to inoculation with mycorrhizal fungi. (2010, background): “A final factor to consider is that the mycorrhizal symbioses in natural field systems are often established on a target plant through mycelial growth from an existing mycelial network (Newman 1988; Simard & Durall 2004).”
Guilds of mycorrhizal fungi and their relation to trees, ericads, orchids and liverworts in a neotropical mountain rain forest (2008, background): “Fungi with a broad host range could even establish functional mycorrhizal networks to improve nutrient exploitation from soil resources, yield interplant carbon transfer, facilitate seedling establishment and influence interplant competition (Simard & Durall, 2004).”
Mycorrhizal diversity: Cause and effect? (2005, background): “mediate plant competition through the formation of mycelial linkages, through which carbon is shared among different plant species (Simard and Durall, 2004).”
Mycorrhizas in changing ecosystems1,2 (2014, neutral): “(Simard and Durall 2004; McGuire 2007).”
Why do mixotrophic plants stay green? A comparison between green and achlorophyllous orchid individuals in situ (2013, background): “This is especially crucial since mycorrhizal symbiosis is a network, where fungi link different plants from the same or different species (Simard and Durall 2004, Selosse et al. 2006), allowing some of these to behave as C sinks.”
Diversity, ecology, and conservation of truffle fungi in forests of the Pacific Northwest (2009, background): “Smith and Singer (1958) and later by O.”
Advances in restoration ecology: rising to the challenges of the coming decades (2015, background): “…plant survival and growth (e.g., Requena et al. 2001, Pineiro et al. 2013) although in some systems it may be the presence of a mycorrhizal network (Simard and Durall 2004, Teste et al. 2009, Booth and Hoeksema 2010), as opposed to the presence of certain mycorrhizas alone, that facilitates…”
