“…It has been shown that mycorrhizal plants may have fewer and shorter roots than non-mycorrhizal plants, since extraradicular AMF mycelium increases the volume of soil explored by the plant root system, allowing higher water and nutrient uptake (Locatelli et al, 2002). Therefore, these results confirm the ability of AMF to benefit plant growth, and the increase in shoot and root biomass is consistent with previous studies with grapevine rootstocks (Dalla Costa et al, 2010;Anzanello et al, 2011;Cangahuala-Inocente et al, 2011) or with other plant species (Lovato et al, 2006;Farzaneh et al, 2011;Cavagnaro et al, 2012;Evelin et al, 2012;Mohandas, 2012;Steinkellner et al, 2012). Anzanello et al (2011) detected an increase in shoot and root biomass in SO4 and P1103 rootstocks inoculated with AMF, and Dalla Costa et al (2010) also showed an increase in shoot biomass in SO4 rootstock inoculated with AMF.…”

“…In the medicinal orchid Dendrobium loddigesii , EPF fungi, mainly from Fusarium and Acremonium genera, were identified and two isolates exhibited the potential to significantly enhance plant growth by increasing both orchid shoot height and dry biomass . Inoculation with AMF, mainly G. fasciculatum and G. mosseae , significantly improved growth of 3‐year‐old mango rootstocks in a 2‐year field study . Finally, inoculation with G. mosseae and Phoma spp.…”

There is increasing interest in the use of naturally occurring 'biostimulators' for enhancing the growth of agricultural and horticultural crops. Bacteria, fungi and protozoa, as well as marine algae-based seaweed extracts, can produce or contain biostimulators. The activity of biostimulators to promote plant growth is often attributed to their ability to directly or indirectly provide mineral nutrients (mostly N, but also P, S and other macro- and micro-nutrients) to plants. Alternatively, biostimulators are postulated to increase the plant's ability to assimilate these mineral nutrients, often in return for photo-assimilates (as occurs with certain bacteria and fungi associations). Although optimal growth of plants depends on the availability of adequate mineral nutritients, that growth (and also development, including reproduction) is also regulated by plant hormones (phytohormones), including gibberellins, auxins and cytokinins. This review describes and discusses the evidence that the presence or application of biostimulators also increases plant growth directly via phytohormone action and also influences the plant's ability to control its own hormone biosynthesis and homeostasis. Finally, it discusses the need for a better understanding of the role(s) that are played by the naturally occurring biostimulators associated with the plant in the crop field. It is suggested that better understanding will allow for optimal crop yield returns, since disruptions of phytohormone homeostasis in plant organs and tissues can yield either beneficial or sub-optimal outcomes.

“…Campos et al [ 21 ] reported that Rhizophagus intraradices promoted the organic acid concentration in rhizosphere and root growth of Triticum aestivum , resulting in an increase in plant P concentrations. In mango plants, AMF dramatically promoted acid and alkaline phosphatase activities and P uptake in roots, thus promoting biomass production [ 22 ]. Therefore, symbiotic fungi play an important role in regulating plant P acquisition, which is involved in changes in soil physicochemical properties, root architecture, and PT gene expression.…”

Plant roots can be colonized by many symbiotic fungi, whereas it is unclear whether and how symbiotic fungi including arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and endophytic fungi promote phosphorus (P) uptake in Camellia oleifera plants. The objective of the present study was to analyze the effect of inoculation with a culturable endophytic fungus (Piriformospora indica), three arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Funneliformis mosseae, Diversispora versiformis, and Rhizophagus intraradices), and mixture of F. mosseae, D. versiformis and R. intraradices on plant growth, root architecture, soil Olsen-P, soil phosphatase activities, leaf and root P concentrations, and phosphate transporter gene expressions, in order to explore the potential and mechanism of these symbiotic fungi on P acquisition. All the symbiotic fungi colonized roots of C. oleifera after 16 weeks, with P. indica showing the best effect on fungal colonization. All the symbiotic fungi significantly increased acid, neutral, and total phosphatase activities in the soil, accompanied with an elevation of soil Olsen-P, of which P. indica presented the best effect. All symbiotic fungal treatments, except D. versiformis, significantly promoted plant growth, coupled with an increase in root total length, area, and volume. Symbiotic fungi almost up-regulated root CoPHO1-3 expressions as well as leaf CoPHO1-1, CoPHO1-3, and CoPHT1;4 expressions. Correlation analysis showed that P concentrations in leaves and roots were significantly positively correlated with root morphological variables (length, volume, and surface area) and soil acid, neutral and total phosphatase activities. It is concluded that symbiotic fungi, especially P. indica, played an important role in P uptake of C. oleifera plants through regulating root architecture, part plant phosphate transporter gene expressions and soil phosphatase activities.
