Radioisotopes can be used to quantify element fluxes in ecosystems, such as plant phosphorus uptake from soil. On the occasion of a recent publication (Lekberg et al., 2024), this article briefly explains some challenges determination based on radioisotope labeling experiments along with strategies avoid potential pitfalls. The intention contribution is foster progress understanding ecosystems use isotopes. quantitative and nonquantitative studies (for review, see Frossard 2011). In studies, radioisotopes are often demonstrate that specific elements or molecules move among different compartments, for instance cells organs. Using approach, it has been shown mycorrhizal fungi transport soil compartment plant. By contrast, other magnitude an flux. these tracer (i.e. traceable proportion studied system).

Numerous phosphorus (P)-acquisition and -utilisation strategies have evolved in plants growing severely P-impoverished environments. Although these been well characterised for certain taxa, like Proteaceae, P-poor habitats are by a high biodiversity, we know little about how species other families cope with P scarcity. We compared the P-acquisition leaf P-allocation of Fabaceae Myrtaceae those Proteaceae same habitat. exhibited multiple strategies: P-mining carboxylates or phosphatases, uptake facilitated carboxylate-releasing neighbours, dependence on elevated soil availability after fire. Surprisingly, not all showed photosynthetic P-use efficiency (PPUE). Highly P-efficient positive correlations between PPUE proportion metabolite (enzyme substrates), negative phospholipids (cellular membranes) nucleic acid (mostly ribosomal RNA), while found no less species. Overall, that used wider range than to scarcity, at both rhizosphere level. This knowledge is pivotal better understand mechanisms underlying plant survival nutrient-impoverished biodiverse ecosystems.

Mycorrhizal symbioses are complex relationships between plants and fungi that significantly affect ecosystem dynamics functions across terrestrial environments. These symbiotic interactions, which involve a diverse range of fungal lineages, including Mucoromycotina, Glomeromycotina, Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, as well various plant hosts, critical for nutrient cycling, carbon sequestration, growth, resilience both partners to environmental stressors. Recent advances in molecular biology, genetics, sciences have enhanced our understanding mycorrhizal illuminated the mechanisms govern these intricate interactions their ecological implications.

Abstract The dynamic exchange of carbon (C) and nutrients between arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi their host plants is crucial for shaping the spatial heterogeneity within hyphal network. This influenced not only by mycelial growth its interactions with but also variability soil nutrients. Despite importance, network factors driving this remain poorly understood. In field plant–AM interactions, many studies have predominantly concentrated on large‐scale patterns, disregarding at fine scales potentially missing vital insights into nutrient AM fungi. We conducted an experiment to quantify plant–soil–mycelia a gridded 2 × m quadrat. Hyphal in‐growth bags were installed extract pure mycelium. concentrations C ([C]), nitrogen ([N]), phosphorus ([P]) in both plant mycelium tissues measured. Additionally, fungal community from extracted hyphae was sequenced assess composition. Mycelium [N] [P] ranged 2.18% 3.37% 0.99% 4.46%, respectively, variations much higher than those shoot root tissues. stored significant amounts nutrients, particularly (2.27% average), levels exceeding found tissue over 20‐fold.
