Polygamy in trees?
New paper shows that dual associations with ecto- and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi improve the host range and environmental niche of trees.
Ecology Letters: Rog et al.: dx.doi.org/10.1111/ele.70…
When trees and soil fungi form close associations with each other, both partners benefit. Many tree species have further enhanced this cooperation by forming a concurrent symbiosis with two different groups of mycorrhizal fungi. Those trees cope better with water and nutrient scarcity, which is an important trait for forestry in the face of climate warming.
Despite having enormous root systems, trees often are unable to take up enough water and nutrients from soil to grow in a healthy manner. That’s why most terrestrial plants have formed symbiotic associations with fungi over the course of evolution. These mycorrhizal fungi, which either wrap themselves around roots or penetrate the cells of root systems, receive part of the sugar produced by plant photosynthesis from trees as a source of energy. In exchange, trees receive nutrients like phosphate and nitrate as well as water from the fungi in an unromantic marriage of convenience of sorts.
Using more than 400 different tree species spread around the world as a basis, researchers at the University of Zurich (UZH) and Agroscope have shown that many of them have further improved this cooperation system. Although most tree species form an association only with certain single members of different groups of mycorrhizal fungi, “some woody plants form an alliance with two fungus varieties simultaneously,” says Ido Rog from the Department of Plant and Microbial Biology at UZH. The researchers now show that “bigamy” of this kind improves tree fitness, making trees less sensitive to drought and rendering them better able to cope with nutrient scarcity. “They thus are able to colonize a much larger territory than tree species that form a symbiosis with only one fungus type can,” lead author Rog says. The broader geographical range and the expanded environmental niche space occupied by those trees are independent of their phylogenetic architecture and evolutionary history.
In forestry, this knowledge could be helpful in the future for selecting tree species specialized in dual fungal associations because they are likely to be better at coping with ongoing global warming and could be used to colonize dry climate zones,” UZH professor Marcel van der Heijden explains.

En México, la mortalidad materna subió de 48.7 a 72.4 muertes por cada 100,000 nacidos vivos. Retrocedimos más de 30 años en salud materna.
Las muertes maternas son evitables. Urge garantizar atención médica de calidad, acceso universal a emergencias obstétricas y combatir la desigualdad.
¡Hagamos de la salud materna una prioridad nacional! 👇🏼
