Abstract:

In arid and semi-arid ecosystems vegetation is often arranged in high-density patches imbedded in an extensive matrix dominated by bare soil. This study explores the importance of vegetation pattern in the relationship between grasses and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). In shrub-dominated and bare-soil dominated patches of the Patagonian steppe, we quantified AMF colonization in the dominant grasses Bromus pictus, Poa ligularis, Pappostipa speciosa and Pappostipa humilis. Additionally, in the shrub-dominated patches, AMF colonization was measured in roots under the shrub canopy and off the shrub canopy. Soils in each patch type were also characterized. B. pictus showed the highest AMF colonization, followed by P. speciosa, P. humilis and P. ligularis. The shrub patch resulted to be a fertility hotspot for biological activity and soil attributes. Grass plants in the shrub patches showed in general the highest rates of AMF colonization. Conversely, we did not find consistent differences between the two types of microsites within the shrub patch. Shrub patches may be functioning as refuges for biological activity that preserve the occurrence of mycorrhizal symbiosis of grass species and alter nutrient dynamics. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd
