Mycorrhiza is a symbiotic association between the roots of plants with fungi. Among the
various types of mycorrhizal fungi, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are the most …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis is the oldest and most widespread mutualistic
association on Earth and involves plants and soil fungi belonging to Glomeromycotina. A …

There is increasing evidence that plant-associated microorganisms play important roles in
shaping interactions between plants and insect herbivores. Studies of both pathogenic and …

Plants produce a large range of structurally varied low molecular weight secondary
metabolites, which evaporate, known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Several of …

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs), a bouquet of chemical compounds released by all life
forms, play essential roles in trophic interactions. VOCs can facilitate a large number of …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are beneficial obligate symbionts of plant roots. Volatile
organic compounds (VOCs) participate in plant communication and defence. The aim of this …

The majority of terrestrial plants can form symbiotic associations on their roots with
arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in the soil to stimulate the growth and nutrient uptake of …

We developed and applied a fully automated portable gas chromatography (GC) device for
rapid and in situ analysis of plant volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to examine plant …

In the changing scenario of agriculture, plants are exposed to various biotic and abiotic
stresses. Induction of both constitutive and inducible defense systems was noticed in plants …

Plant disease occurs simultaneously with insect attack. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF)
modify plant biotic stress response. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and pathogens may modify …
