INTERACTIONS OF VESICULAR‐ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZAL INFECTION AND HEAVY METALS IN PLANTS: I. THE EFFECTS OF HEAVY METALS ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF VESICULAR‐ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZAS
Abstract
SUMMARY: The degree of infection of onions with the vesicular–arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus mosseae was strongly reduced by additions of zinc, copper, nickel or cadmium to the soil medium, and could be completely eliminated by heavy rates of application. A split pot experiment was used to show that zinc translocated within the plant from other roots was effective in decreasing infection levels. Despite this, clover plants growing on areas which had been heavily contaminated with metal were found to be strongly infected with mycorrhizal fungi. A comparison of G. mosseae isolated from these plants with the isolate used at Rothamsted showed the former to be much more tolerant of zinc and cadmium in the soil. There was some indication that mycorrhizal infection, particularly with the tolerant isolate, could protect plants against the effects of heavy metal additions. These infections might be very important in revegetation of polluted sites.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
