ROLE OF MYCORRHIZA IN ABSORBING SOIL PHOSPHOROUS
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 10
Abstract
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) usually form beneficial symbioses with roots of many plants in order to allow them to maintain themselves and grow well under relatively harsh conditions Some primary benefits of mycorrhizae are enhanced host plant acquisition of mineral nutrients Fungal hyphae normally transport phosphorous over longer distances from depleted zones compared to roots. The AM especially benefit plants grown in soils where P is likely to limit plant growth. A reduced effectiveness of AM colonization of roots often occurs when soluble soil P levels increase this review gives an overview on the role of mycorrhizae in absorbing phosphorous.
