Here, we established an AMF-Phragmites communis symbiotic system and conducted TCC exposure experiments. Our results demonstrated that TCC exposure significantly inhibited mycorrhizal colonization, root morphology, and the antioxidant system of P. communis. Specifically, under the 5 mg kg<sup>- 1</sup> soil TCC exposure, arbuscule abundance decreased by 3.53-fold, root total length declined to 1011.13 cm, and the integrated biomarker response index value of the antioxidant system dropped to 0.25. In contrast, arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis promoted root morphological and physiological growth. Transcriptome analysis revealed that AM symbiosis upregulated genes encoding key enzymes in the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway (e.g., MAPKKK and MAPK family members), whereas TCC exposure downregulated their expressions. Furthermore, in the rhizosphere soil, the composition and structure of microbial communities were distinctly influenced by AM symbiosis and TCC exposure. Compared to AM symbiosis, which upregulated soil metabolites associated with metabolism, TCC exposure downregulated soil metabolites across multiple functional categories, including metabolism, environmental information processing, and cellular processes. This research broadens our understanding of how AM symbiosis enhances the resistance of P. communis and maintains the stability of the rhizosphere environment under TCC exposure, and evidences the potential of AMF application in improving the purification capacity of wetland systems.</p>","PeriodicalId":18965,"journal":{"name":"Mycorrhiza","volume":"36 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2026-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148308890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Agroforestry can offer a sustainable strategy for smallholder systems by enhancing soil quality and influencing arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) community composition in crop root systems. Using a canopy-based radial sampling design, we assessed the influence of Mangifera indica (mango) trees on soil properties and AMF communities in maize and cassava in southern Ethiopia. Illumina MiSeq sequencing identified 908 AMF operational taxonomic units (OTUs) from 7 families, dominated by Glomeraceae. While soil properties, including pH, total nitrogen (TN), organic carbon, and potassium, were significantly affected by the distance from mango trunks (p < 0.001), this was not the case for AMF community composition and AMF richness and diversity. Host identity, rather than distance from the mango trees, was the primary driver of AMF community composition, with distinct and host-specific assemblages in mango, maize, and cassava roots (p < 0.001). Soil nutrients influenced AMF diversity differently across host plants (p < 0.05). In maize-mango systems, TN positively affected observed richness (S<sub>obs</sub>) and Shannon diversity (N1), whereas Olsen P negatively affected N1 and Simpson diversity (N2). In cassava-mango systems, TN increased S<sub>obs</sub>, and Olsen P positively influenced expected richness (S<sub>exp</sub>). Overall, these findings suggest that improvements in soil fertility associated with mango-based agroforestry systems do not necessarily translate into corresponding changes in crop-associated AMF community composition and diversity. Without demonstrating direct benefits, we at least show that mango can be effectively integrated into smallholder maize and cassava production without compromising the AMF communities, while enhancing key soil fertility indicators.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are well-recognized beneficial soil microorganisms that significantly promote plant growth, enhance nutrient uptake, and improve resistance to various biotic and abiotic stresses. However, a comprehensive understanding of the potential of AMF to suppress tomato bacterial wilt is still lacking. In this study, we demonstrate that AMF inoculation remarkably reduces the disease index of bacterial wilt in tomato plants, upregulates the expression of pathogenesis-related (PR) genes, and enhances antioxidant enzyme activities, collectively strengthening systemic disease resistance. High-throughput 16 S rRNA gene sequencing revealed that AMF colonization drives substantial reassembly of the rhizosphere microbiome. Notably, AMF colonization promoted the recruitment of beneficial bacterial genera, including Bacillus and Brevibacillus, while significantly suppressing the abundance of Ralstonia. Furthermore, we isolated two Brevibacillus strains, designated AQC211 and AQC296, from the mycorrhizosphere of healthy tomato plants, both exhibited antagonistic activity against R. solanacearum in vitro.

Several compounds were also significantly greater with AM fungal inoculation in barley shoots.

We characterised OMF associated with 28 orchid species across the Ryukyu Archipelago, Japan using a two-step approach: preliminary Sanger sequencing followed by high-throughput sequencing (HTS) with multiple primer sets to improve taxonomic and phylogenetic coverage. HTS detected 57 OMF operational taxonomic units (OTUs), dominated by Tulasnellaceae, and recovered all Sanger-detected OTUs while capturing additional diversity. Six OTUs exhibited exceptionally broad host ranges, each occurring in more than ten orchid species, forming an ecologically influential generalist group that provides the basis for the core OMF concept proposed in this study. All orchids showed broad and flexible fungal associations with low specificity. Population-level patterns revealed both conserved and site-specific partners, reflecting the coexistence of apparent and true generalism among Ryukyu orchids. Primer choice significantly influenced the recovery of Tulasnellaceae clades, demonstrating that single universal primers underestimate lineage-level diversity. Together, these results indicate that orchid communities in the Ryukyus are structured around a core set of ecologically versatile generalist fungi that function as key symbionts across diverse hosts and habitats.
