Abstract:
Fixation of atmospheric N2 may provide an advantage to woody plants in N-limited environments, but may also alter their resistance to herbivory. Studies in adjacent plantings of three North American shrub alders (Alnus spp.) and three Eurasian tree alders showed significant species differences in susceptibility to a leaf-mining sawfly (Fenusa dohrnii) and in response to inoculation with a N2-fixing actinomycete (Frankia). During the first 5 years, woody biomass production ranged from 0.3 t∙ha−1∙year−1 in Alnus viridis ssp. sinuata (Sitka alder) to 8.3 t∙ha−1∙year−1 in Alnus incana ssp. incana

Abstract:
Micro- and macro-nutrient acquisition by plants and microorganisms is a cornerstone for their survival and has a direct impact on biogeochemical cycling. In this study, we investigated, in controlled conditions, how the availability of exogenous nitrate impacted nutrient acquisition and distribution in black alder (Alnus glutinosa (L.) Gaertn.) in the presence, or absence, of its nitrogen-fixing bacterial symbiont (Frankia sp.). Our findings show that alder physiology and distribution of nutrients between aerial and root tissues were strongly influenced by the presence of the symbiont. In both

Abstract:
N2 fixation by grey alder, Alnus incana (L.) Moench, was studied in the field during two growing seasons in northern Sweden. Alders were planted in a nitrogen-poor soil. Each alder had its root system enclosed in an open-ended cylinder that was closed with a gas-tight lid around the stem base to serve as cuvette during nitrogenase activity (acetylene reducing activity) measurements. To follow the seasonal variation, nitrogenase activity was measured at noon on 15 occasions for each alder in 1987 and on 15 occasions in 1988. Diurnal variation in nitrogenase activity was studied at six occasions

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The diversity of uncultured Frankia populations in root nodules of Alnus oblongifolia trees geographically isolated on mountaintops of central Arizona was analyzed by comparative sequence analyses of nifH gene fragments. Sequences were retrieved from Frankia populations in nodules of four trees from each of three mountaintops (n = 162) and their levels of diversity compared using spatial genetic clustering methods and single-nucleotide or 1, 3, or 5% sequence divergence thresholds. With the single-nucleotide threshold level, 45 different sequences with significant differences between

Abstract:
Grey alder, Alnus incana (L.) Moench, was inoculated with the local source of Frankia and planted in nitrogen-poor soil in northern (63.8°N, 20.3°E) Sweden. Each alder root system was enclosed in a cylinder that served as an open-ended cuvette for nitrogenase activity measurements. The alders grew well, especially during the 2nd year of the study. The final leaf area in each season was more closely related to total alder biomass than final height of alders. The alders lost 17% of their total dry mass as leaf litter each year. This corresponded to 33 g dry mass and 0.67 g N per alder during the

Abstract:
Red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) is a nitrogen-fixing woody plant that is common on wetland sites and tolerates flooding through a variety of induced morphological and physiological changes. Among these changes are the formation of hypertrophied nodule lenticels and the subsequent full restoration of nitrogenase activity after 50 days of flooding. The objective of this study was to examine fine structural changes within red alder nodules during lenticel development that correspond to changes in nitrogenase activity during a 50-day experimental flood. Nodulated seedlings of red alder were grown un

Abstract:
Background Recent climatic history has strongly impacted plant populations, but little is known about its effect on microbes. Alders, which host few and specific symbionts, have high genetic diversity in glacial refugia. Here, we tested the prediction that communities of root symbionts survived in refugia with their host populations. We expected to detect endemic symbionts and a higher species richness in refugia as compared to recolonized areas. Methods We sampled ectomycorrhizal (EM) root tips and the nitrogen-fixing actinomycete Frankia communities in eight sites colonized by Alnus glutinos
