Article Synopsis
- The study highlights that arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can boost growth in certain plants like Brachypodium distachyon under phosphorus (P) limitations while negatively affecting them under nitrogen (N) limitations.
- The effects of these fungi vary significantly based on the plant's genetic makeup, with faster-growing genotypes benefiting from P transfer, while slower-growing ones experience less negative impacts due to surplus carbon and nitrogen.
- The findings emphasize the importance of plant genotype and its resource management strategies in influencing growth outcomes during AM symbioses, pointing to a complex relationship between nutrient availability and plant growth.
