Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can influence all components of plant reproduction
including pollen delivery, pollen germination, pollen tube growth, fertilization, and seed …

Can above–belowground interactions help address issues of food security? We address this
question in this manuscript, and review the intersection of above–belowground interactions …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi function as conduits for underground nutrient transport. While
the fungal partner is dependent on the plant host for its carbon (C) needs, the amount of …

Phenotypic plasticity is essential for organisms to adapt to local ecological conditions. It is
expected that mutualistic interactions, such as arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis …

We know a lot about the potential functions of mycorrhizas, but whether or not these are
realized in the field where plants simultaneously experience a range of biotic interactions …

During the process of plant domestication, below-ground communities are rarely
considered. Some studies have attempted to understand the changes in root symbionts …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis has been shown to enhance some plant traits to
which pollinators are known to respond. Moreover, in gynodioecious species pollinators …

A major transition in flowering plants has been the evolution of separate sexes from
hermaphroditism via gynodioecy which is considered to be the most important route. Biotic …

Sex-specific responses to mycorrhiza have been reported in dioecious plant species, but
little attention has been paid to the influence of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi on …

In gynodioecious plants, females are predicted to produce more and/or better offspring than
hermaphrodites in order to be maintained in the same population. In the field, the roots of …
