Hypericum perforatum L. (St. John’s-wort, Hypericaceae) is a valuable medicinal plant species cultivated for pharmaceutical purposes. Although the chemical composition and pharmacological activities of H. have been well studied, no data are available concerning influence arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on this important herb. A laboratory experiment was therefore conducted in order to test three AMF inocula with view show whether could vitality (biomass photosynthetic activity) production...
We studied the effects of invasions by three plant species: Reynoutria japonica, Rudbeckia laciniata, and Solidago gigantea, on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) communities in habitats located within outside river valleys. Arbuscular colonization, AMF abundance species richness soils were assessed adjacent plots with invaders native vegetation. also quantified performance (expressed as shoot mass, chlorophyll fluorescence, concentration elements shoots) two common, plants, Plantago...
This study assessed the effects of Reynoutria japonica, Rudbeckia laciniata, and Solidago gigantea invading sites within outside river valleys on activity, biomass, composition soil microbial communities. Microbial properties such as respiration, urease arylsulfatase activities, biomass (based substrate-induced or SIR, phospholipid fatty acids, PLFA), community PLFA) were determined. R. japonica encroached characterized by lowest values microbiological laciniata with highest quality. The...
As a result of phylogenomic, phylogenetic, and morphological analyses members the genus Claroideoglomus , four potential new glomoid spore-producing species Entrophospora infrequens order, Entrophosporales, with one family, Entrophosporaceae (=Claroideoglomeraceae), was erected in phylum Glomeromycota. The phylogenomic recovered Entrophosporales as sister to clade formed by Diversisporales Glomeraceae. strongly conserved entrophosporoid morph E. provided newly designated epitype, shown...
Viola tricolor L. (heartsease, wild pansy) is a valuable medicinal plant obtained for pharmaceutical purposes by cultivation. Given that the species usually strongly colonized arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), we tested in pot experiment whether these microorganisms were able to influence V. mass, vitality, and concentrations of selected elements, phenolic acids flavonoids. The following treatments prepared: (1) control: sterile soil without AMF inoculation; (2) Rhizophagus irregularis...
While a number of recent studies have revealed that arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can mediate invasive plant success, the influence these symbionts on most successful and high-impact invaders is largely unexplored. Two perennial herbs this category plants, Rudbeckia laciniata Solidago gigantea (Asteraceae), were thus tested in pot experiment to determine whether AMF their growth, concentration phosphorus biomass, photosynthesis. The following treatments, including three common species,...
This study compared the effects of four invasive plants, namely Impatiens glandulifera, Reynoutria japonica, Rudbeckia laciniata, and Solidago gigantea, as well two native species—Artemisia vulgaris, Phalaris arundinacea, their mixture on soil physicochemical properties in a pot experiment. Plants were planted pots loamy sand soils. The soils collected from fallows located outside (fallow soil) within river valley (valley under plant communities. Aboveground biomass, cover, such nutrient...
Despite the presence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in temperate forests, knowledge concerning their diversity and interactions with plants is still insufficient. Therefore, we studied impact overstorey species identity on AMF abundance richness composition relation to herbaceous plant cover soil chemical properties. The effects 14 tree grown for 48 years monospecific plots Siemianice Experimental Forest (western Poland) were compared, including following groupings: deciduous vs...
In order to recognize interactions between alien vascular plants and soil microorganisms thus better understand the mechanisms of plant invasions, we examined mycorrhizal status, arbuscular fungi (AMF) colonization rate, mycorrhiza (AM) morphology presence fungal root endophytes in 37 non-native species Central Europe. We also studied AMF diversity chemical properties soils from under these species. The materials were collected southern Poland. found that 35 formed AM their status depended...
Abstract Aim Overstorey tree species influence both soil properties and microclimate conditions in the forest floor, which turn can induce changes ground bryophyte communities. The aim of study was to investigate effect identity most important habitat factors influencing understorey bryophytes. Methods We assessed 14 related parameters, including vascular plant presence light intensity on bryophytes monospecific plots covered by nearly fifty-year-old trees Siemianice Experimental Forest...
Abstract Morphological analyses of three glomoid spore-producing fungi suggested that two them were undescribed species Glomeraceae (phylum Glomeromycota ), and the third differed slightly from Dominikia glomerocarpica Epigeocarpum crypticum , recently described in . The first originated Mediterranean Sea sand dunes Peloponnese, Greece, was originally found a tree plantation Yokohama City, Japan. Phylogenetic sequences 45S nuc rDNA region RPB1 gene showed (i) belonged to ; (ii) represented...
Studies of the morphology and 45S nuc rDNA phylogeny three potentially undescribed arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (phylum Glomeromycota) grown in cultures showed that one these is a new species genus Diversispora family Diversisporaceae; other two are Scutellospora Scutellosporaceae. vistulana sp. nov. came from maritime sand dunes Vistula Spit northern Poland, S. graeca intraundulata originally inhabited Mediterranean Peloponnese Peninsula, Greece. In addition, morphological description...
Understanding of factors that shape diversity patterns in forest ecosystems is a main challenge ecology and management practices. Although herbaceous plants are known to contribute the maintenance structure function temperate forests, their impact on fungal bacterial communities soils largely unknown. Therefore, we conducted comparative study soil two Central European deciduous focusing plots with dominant species contrasting morphology, phenology, reproduction, ecology, including Allium...
