• Effects of Soil Organisms on Aboveground Plant-Insect Interactions in the Field: Patterns, Mechanisms and the Role of Methodology (2018, unknown): “Finally, several studies have shown that, for instance AMF can affect plant functional traits, such as flower size and stamen number (Gange and Smith, 2005; Gange et al., 2005a; Varga and Kytöviita, 2010).”
• Balancing multiple mutualists: asymmetric interactions among plants, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, and fungal endophytes (2008, background): “For example, mycorrhizal fungi can increase visitation rates by pollinating insects (Gange and Smith 2005, Wolfe et al. 2005).”
• Microbially Mediated Plant Functional Traits (2011, background): “…visitation with arbuscular mycorrhizal inoculation, but the plant traits responsible for this increase differed between the species—one species responded through increased flower size, another through flower number, and the third through the amount of floral nectar (Gange and Smith, 2005).”
• Weed-insect pollinator networks as bio-indicators of ecological sustainability in agriculture. A review (2016, background): “Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi can likewise increase the number of flower visitors (mainly Diptera and Hymenoptera) in C. cyanus L. (Asteraceae) (Gange and Smith 2005).”
• How do belowground organisms influence plant–pollinator interactions? (2015, unknown): “Pollinators vary in their effectiveness and the breadth of plant species they visit (Gange and Smith 2005).”
• Yeasts in floral nectar of some South African plants: Quantification and associations with pollinator type and sugar concentration (2009, background): “…recent studies have considered three-way interactions linking plants, pollinators and some third party such as herbivores (Herrera, 2000), mycorrhizal fungi (Gange and Smith, 2005; Gehring and Bennet, 2009), or nectarivorous yeasts (Canto et al., 2007, 2008; Herrera et al., 2008, 2009).”
• The Ecology of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (2013, background): “…in insect herbivory by induced plant response (Bennett et al., 2009) and variation in that response relative to nitrogen (N) uptake (Gange et al., 2005), increase in insect pollination (Gange and Smith, 2005) and percentage increase in Fı generation seed germination (Srivastava and Mukerji, 1995).”
