Interaction Of Acaena Elongata L. With Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Under Phosphorus Limitation Conditions In A Temperate Forest
PHYTON-INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL BOTANY(2021)
摘要
The aim of this study was to analyze the performance of Acaena elongata colonized by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) to different phosphorus (P) concentrations, as a measure of AMF dependency. A. elongata, is a species from soils where P availability is limited, such as temperate forests. Our research questions were: 1) How do different P concentrations affect the AMF association in Acaena elongata, and 2) How does the AMF association influence A. elongata's growth under different P concentrations? A. elongata's growth, P content in plant tissue, AMF colonization and dependency were measured under four P concentrations: control (0 g P kg(-1)), low (0.05 g P kg(-1)), intermediate (0.2 g P kg(-1)) and high (2 g P kg(-1)) in different harvests. A complete randomized block design was applied. A. elongata's growth was higher under -AMF in intermediate and high P concentrations, and the lowest growth corresponded to +AMF in the low and intermediate P concentration. We observed a negative effect on the root biomass under +AMF in intermediate P concentration, while the P concentration had a positive effect on the leaf area ratio. The AMF colonization in A. elongata decreased in the highest P concentration and it was favored under intermediate P concentration; while the low and the high concentrations generated a cost-benefit imbalance. Our results suggest that the performance of some plant species in soils with low P availability may not be favored by their association with AMF, but a synergy between AMF and intermediate P concentrations might drive A. elongata's growth.
