Most <i>Ralstonia</i> strains are soilborne and penetrate plants through the roots, although some <i>R. syzygii</i> exceptions can be transmitted by insects (Denny, <span>2006</span>). Upon plant invasion, <i>Ralstonia</i> colonizes plant xylem vessels and multiplies massively, causing a reduction in growth and yield, wilting, and, ultimately, death (Denny, <span>2006</span>; Xue <i>et al</i>., <span>2020</span>). The collapse of a diseased plant, which can host > 10<sup>8</sup> colony-forming units (CFU) per gram of tissue, constitutes a re-inoculation of bacteria into nearby soil, where <i>Ralstonia</i> can survive for years. <i>Ralstonia</i> can then be transmitted by water or other means to other host plants, which can be invaded through natural root openings or directly through wounds caused by other organisms or agricultural practices, such as the use of contaminated tools (Denny, <span>2006</span>). Strains within the RSSC are the causal agents of devastating diseases in a broad range of economically important crop plants, such as bacterial wilt disease in diverse Solanaceae plants (such as tomato, eggplant, or pepper), brown rot (a.k.a. bacterial wilt) disease in potato, or Moko/blood disease in banana and plantain (Denny, <span>2006</span>).

Plants constitute most of the biomass on Earth (<i>c</i>. 82%; Bar-On <i>et al</i>., <span>2018</span>), and their traits are the predominant drivers of terrestrial ecosystem functioning (Migliavacca <i>et al</i>., <span>2021</span>; Fricke <i>et al</i>., <span>2022</span>).

Veresoglou","doi":"10.1111/nph.19108","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/nph.19108","url":null,"abstract":"<p>Mutualistic associations that plant roots form with soil-borne fungi of the phylum Glomeromycota, termed arbuscular mycorrhizas (AM; in the text we often refer to them as mycorrhizas), are among the most ubiquitous symbioses across terrestrial ecosystems (Brundrett & Tedersoo, <span>2018</span>). The benefits that plants gain from the symbiosis not only depend strongly on environmental parameters, such as light intensity and soil fertility, but also reflect how compatible the Glomeromycotan fungus is with the plant species (the mycorrhizal phenotype: Johnson <i>et al</i>., <span>1997</span>; Hoeksema <i>et al</i>., <span>2010</span>). There have been, so far, numerous controlled experiments addressing biomass gains following manipulations of the mycorrhizal status of the plant hosts, and these have been nicely summarized in recent meta-analyses (e.g. Hoeksema <i>et al</i>., <span>2010</span>; Qiu <i>et al</i>., <span>2022</span>). Results of meta-analyses, however, are meant to be generalizable under a narrow range of ‘common’ experimental settings (Gurevitch & Hedges, <span>2001</span>), which in the case of mycorrhizal studies most likely describes short-term experiments on phosphorus-deficient sandy growth substrates, plant hosts growing at low densities and a low diversity of Glomeromycotan propagules inoculated at artificially high densities.</p><p>We know much less about experimental conditions that can make mycorrhiza perform exceptionally well or badly. As an example, we know that plant mycorrhizal growth responses can get negative under very low light availability (Konvalinkova & Jansa, <span>2016</span>), which describes nonetheless an unusual set of growth conditions in the mycorrhizal literature. Plant growth stimulation, by contrast, can be observed frequently across experimental settings that include plant pathogens or root-feeding nematodes (Veresoglou & Rillg, <span>2012</span>). Traditional meta-analytical approaches focus on average experimental settings that do not capture well those relationships, and it can occasionally be tricky, either because the number of studies is small or because the relationships are not documented sufficiently, to develop dedicated meta-analyses. A way to gain further insights on the topic is through addressing whether pairs of experimental settings that either consolidate or obviate each other in relation to growth effects exist. Documenting these considerations (i.e. interactive effects) could add context towards interpreting past mycorrhizal growth experiments and designing new ones.</p><p>There appears to be no standardized way to address such unusual settings. Here, we present results from a systematic literature review aiming to fill this gap (Supporting Information Notes S1).
