| axenic germination of scutellospora erythropa and scutellospora nigra in in vitro conditions. | spores of scutellospora erythropa and scu. nigra isolated from neem rhizosphere soils from coastal regions of chennai were tested for axenic germination in in vitro conditions. they showed positive results in media of different composition using root exudates, soil extract, thiamine hcl and inositol. the combined medium increased the spore germination in scu. erythropa and in scu. nigra over water agar control. the germ tube often grew up to 3.8 cm on combined media but no vegetative spores and ... | 2000 | 11395963 |
| cooccurring plants forming distinct arbuscular mycorrhizal morphologies harbor similar am fungal species. | arbuscular mycorrhizal (am) fungal spores were isolated from field transplants and rhizosphere soil of hedera rhombea (miq) bean and rubus parvifolius l., which form paris-type and arum-type am, respectively. dna from the spore isolates was used to generate molecular markers based on partial large subunit (lsu) ribosomal rna (rdna) sequences to determine am fungi colonizing field-collected roots of the two plant species. species that were isolated as spores and identified morphologically and mol ... | 2006 | 17106725 |
| host-related variability in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal structures in roots of hedera rhombea, rubus parvifolius, and rosa multiflora under controlled conditions. | the arbuscular mycorrhizal (am) morphology of three host plant species inoculated with single and mixed fungal culture and the distribution of am fungal species in roots of the hosts treated with a mixed culture of am fungi were determined. the aim was to investigate the effect of host plants and am fungi on am morphology of coexisting plant species. noncolonized rooted cuttings of hedera rhombea (miq) bean, rubus parvifolius l., and rosa multiflora thunb. were inoculated with five fungal specie ... | 2007 | 17111164 |
