Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect AM colonization increased expression of genes coding for sucrose synthase in maize roots up to 18 days after emergence.
- Intervention effect Increasing soil phosphorus decreased sucrose synthase gene expression in maize roots.
- Observation AM induced expression responses appeared earlier than increased leaf P status and growth responses under limiting phosphorus.
- Mechanism Higher expression in mycorrhizal maize roots supports greater early allocation of root sucrose to the fungus than in nonmycorrhizal roots.
