Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are among the most important macronutrients for plant growth development, widely used as fertilizers. Understanding how plants sense respond to N P deficiency is essential optimize reduce use of chemical Strigolactones (SLs) phytohormones acting modulators sensors responses deficiency. In present work, we assess potential role SLs in starvation N-P signalling interplay. Physiological, transcriptional metabolic were analysed wild-type SL-deficient tomato grown...
Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can increase plant tolerance and/or resistance to pests such as the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita . However, ameliorative effects may depend on AMF species. The aim of this work was therefore evaluate whether four species differentially affect performance in response M. infection. Tomato plants grown greenhouse conditions were inoculated with different isolates ( Claroideoglomus claroideum , Funneliformis mosseae Gigaspora margarita and...
The plant-parasitic nematode Nacobbus aberrans is an endoparasite that induces gall formation in the roots and causes severe losses to diverse crops. Some populations of this show preference for certain hosts, revealing existence "races/groups" with different behaviour making management difficult. A possible biological control alternative reduce damage caused by species may be use arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). In present work, effect Glomus intraradices on tomato plants inoculated at...
Sorghum is an important worldwide source of food, feed and fibres. Like most plants, it forms mutualistic symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), but the nutritional basis mycorrhiza-responsiveness largely unknown. Here, we investigated transcriptional physiological responses sorghum to two different AMF species, Rhizophagus irregularis Funneliformis mosseae, under 16 conditions nitrogen (N) phosphorus (P) supply. Our experiment reveals fine-scale differences between species in...
ABSTRACT Knowledge about tree production practices is essential to support forest restoration projects, but still lacking for many species. Maytenus boaria a neotropical distributed across the temperate and subtropical South American mountains. In central Argentina, it mainly restricted most preserved remnants. Attempts plant this species have had little success due difficulties in seedling low survival. We set up four trials aiming identify constraints of outplanting. Under greenhouse...
