Holland T, Vukicevich E, Thomsen C, Pogiatzis A, Hart M and Bowen P. Catalyst 2: Summary Aim: Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are a group of symbiotic soil fungi known for their role in promoting host-plant growth by improving nutrient uptake, providing pathogen protection, and increasing tolerance to common vineyard soil abiotic stressors such as salinity, extreme ph, and low water availability. Use of commercially produced AM fungal inoculants, known as fungal biofertilizers, is growing in viticulture, but remains untested under field conditions. Here we discuss factors that affect the performance of fungal biofertilizers and scenarios where they may be more, and less, advantageous. Key Themes: Fungal biofertilizer use is increasing globally, but does their use translate to improved grapevine performance under vineyard conditions? What are the key considerations for incorporating AM fungi into vineyard management? Impact and Significance: While the importance of AM fungi for plant performance is well known, inoculation with fungal biofertilizers does not increase plant growth or yield consistently. This may be due to context dependency of the AM symbiosis, which can be affected by vineyard management practices like fertilizer use and tillage. Where AM fungi are not limiting, as in most vineyard soils, adding inoculants when compatible fungi are abundant may be redundant. However, in situations where soil fungi may be limiting, such as in greenhouse propagation nurseries using near-sterile media, or in fields with a history of heavy fertilizer use, AM fungal additions may be warranted.

Manuscript submitted Dec 2017, revised June 2018, Sept 2018, accepted Sept 2018 doi: /catalyst Overview Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi associate naturally with grapevines in a symbiosis whose importance for vineyard performance is becoming increasingly clear. Decades of research attest to the role of AM fungi in increasing nutrient supply for host plants 1,2 and in providing protection from soil-borne pathogens. 3 Fungal biofertilizers are marketed to capitalize on these services. Whether these products are consistently beneficial or cost-effective for growers is unclear. 4,5 The benefits of AM fungal inoculations to plant performance are observed regularly under sterile conditions; however, the effects of fungal biofertilizers on the performance of perennial crops like grapevine under field conditions are virtually unexamined. Key Themes The global trend in AM fungal biofertilizers. AM fungi are a quickly growing class of biofertilizers. These fungi act as an extension of the host roots, increasing nutrient uptake 2,6 and providing other benefits such as pathogen protection 3 and improved stress tolerance. 6,7 The AM symbiosis often leads to increased growth and fitness for the host plant, which is termed the mycorrhizal effect. 8 page 59
2 60 Holland et al. Because AM fungi form a symbiosis with 74% of angiosperm species, 8 including many important crops, they are marketed to producers of most agronomic and horticultural crops, 9,10 including grapevine. Although the production and use of AM fungal biofertilizers has increased as part of the sustainability movement, 10 there is limited field-based evidence that their use results in improved host performance, and few application techniques and rates have been established. 11 While some studies show AM fungal biofertilizers can provide modest increases in performance of grains, 12 legumes, 13 lettuce and zucchini, 14 potato, 15 and tomato, 16 there are numerous studies that show no benefit 17,18 or declining perfomance. 18,19 Because there is such a wide range of mycorrhizal outcomes, some likely arising from different inocula applied, the efficacy of a fungal biofertilizer cannot be predicted from prior testing, which should be considered before large scale applications. Are AM fungal biofertilizers suitable for perennials? Perennials may respond differently to biofertilizers than annual crops, due to fundamental differences in biology. The long-term development of perennial plants and exposure to natural AM fungal communities make it difficult to fully understand the impact AM additions can have, while with annuals, the effect is more apparent. If perennial plants are grown in environments with limited AM fungi, then there may be long-term advantages associated with AM fungal biofertilizer use. Unfortunately, studies have not been conducted to address this question. What we know about perennials and AM fungal biofertilizers comes from a small number of studies. AM fungal biofertilizers were beneficial in the production of perennial tubers such as cassava, 4 but results are less consistent for grapevines. 20,21 Given that perennial systems are relatively undisturbed, compared with annual cropping systems, the value of commercial fungal additions to grapevines is still unknown. Biofertilizer effects on vineyard performance may be difficult to evaluate, because studies must span the long period between planting and crop production (typically three years in grapevine), and effects of inoculation may not be apparent immediately. Knowledge about AM symbiosis (natural or biofertilizer) in grapevine roots is far from complete, making it difficult to predict long term effects. AM fungal biofertilizers and grapevines. In theory, grapevines should benefit from fungal biofertilizers. They are highly mycorrhizal-dependent: their growth increases in the presence of AM fungi 20,21 and is stunted when grown without AM fungi in sterile soil. 22,23 Such dependency may stem from the range of stressful growing conditions that prevail in the native ranges of grape rootstock species, such as rocky stream banks and droughty, calcareous soils. 24,25 It is possible that the mycorrhizal associations allowed these ancestral rootstocks to better tolerate their native landscapes, allowing them to access otherwise unavailable nutrients or water sources during stressful periods. These stressors also exist in vineyards to some degree (i.e., salinity, 26,27 extreme ph, 28,29 or low water availability 30 ). While the importance of AM fungal symbiosis for grapevine growth is clear, 31 there is no research yet supporting (or discouraging) the use of AM fungal biofertilizers in viticulture. Whether existing resident vineyard AM fungi are sufficient to fully realize the benefits associated with AM symbiosis has not yet been tested, but may depend on factors specific to each vineyard. Below, we discuss factors that affect the outcome of the AM symbiosis. These factors apply equally to biofertilizers and naturally occurring AM fungi. It is important to remember that biofertilizers are simply fungi, subject to the same constraints as naturally occurring fungi. Such constraints may be overlooked by growers hoping to capitalize on a green alternative to fertilizer. 1) The AM symbiosis is context dependent. Host identity, 18 rootstock, 32,33 soil conditions, 6,34 and climate 35 in concert determine whether an AM fungal isolate will have a positive, neutral, or even negative effect on host performance. The context dependency of the grapevine- AM symbiosis makes it unlikely, if not impossible, for a single fungal inoculant to be beneficial across growing conditions. 2) Soil fertility determines host response to AM fungi. The AM symbiosis is most beneficial in soils that are deficient in nutrients, especially phosphorus. 1,34,36,37 Fertilizer use negatively impacts both the abundance 1,38 and functioning 19 of AM. Plants growing in nutrient rich-soils are unlikely to develop robust AM symbioses, natural or otherwise. Thus, when fertilizer is used, the addition of fungal biofertilizers may be ineffective. Further, when fungal biofertilizers are applied in systems with adequate phosphorus, but limited nitrogen, the fungi can act as parasites, reducing plant growth. 39 3) Tillage destroys fungal networks. There is a long history of research clearly showing the negative effects of tillage on AM fungal abundance, 40 community structure, 41 and functioning. 42 If tillage is required to control weeds or improve soil drainage, then the use of biofertilizer post-tillage may mitigate the effects by

Tillage is incompatible with long-term, sustainable AM fungal populations. 4) Ground covers change AM fungi in soil. An important component of viticulture is management of groundcovers, both inter- and in-row vegetation. 44 Landscapes with diverse groundcover species may also have more abundant and diverse AM fungal communities. 45,46 Since AM fungi can associate with different hosts, this may negate the need for additional inoculation, or even impede inoculant establishment. 47,48 Abundant and diverse groundcovers may enhance AM fungal abundance and diversity naturally. When are AM fungal biofertilizers a good idea? In well-managed vineyards, there is good reason for growers to assume that their crop is already colonized by AM fungi. Field-grown grapevines usually sustain healthy AM fungal communities naturally, so AM fungal biofertilizers may be redundant. Similarly, biofertilizers may also be ineffective in highly fertile production systems where nutrient levels may suppress mycorrhizal functioning. Under some circumstances, however, AM fungal biofertilizers may be a good investment. Soils with low inoculum potential may arise following non-mycorrhizal crops (i.e., brassicas), 49 pre-planting fumigation, 50 or removal of the surface soil. 51 In such soils, AM fungi may be in low numbers or absent. A biofertilizer may give vines a competitive advantage over non-mycorrhizal weeds. 52 This also holds in artificial growing systems that lack soil biota, like hydroponics, tissue culture, sterile greenhouse soils, or peat. Marginal vineyards with a history of high pathogen load or poor soil conditions may require rehabilitation, including microbial additions. 20,27 Similarly, agriculture with high inputs of fertilizer, herbicides, fungicides, and/ or tillage will result in less diverse AM fungal communities. 47 In addition to providing direct benefits to host plants, biofertilizers may help crops compete against non-mycorrhizal weeds. 52,53 Significance Clearly, AM fungal biofertilizers are not useful in all situations. A situation highly likely to benefit from biofertilizers is when the natural abundance of AM fungi is low. Determining the diversity and abundance of AM fungi within soil requires specialized laboratory analysis, such as inoculum potential growth assays, root staining, molecular quantification, and DNA community profiling, but may be a worthwhile investment for sites suspected of having poor soil conditions for plant growth. In addition, before a fungal biofertilizer is applied on a large scale, it is worthwhile to conduct tests to determine spore viability of the product and the ability of the AM fungi to colonize a particular rootstock under the soil conditions of the vineyard. AM fungi are an integral contributor to the health of perennial crops. Growers hoping to use this symbiosis in their cropping system may do well to ask: How can I best promote AM fungi in my vineyard? For instance, the presence of weeds can increase inoculum potential and AM fungal species richness if the weeds are hosts of mycorrhizal fungi. 54 In more resource-limited soils, native species may have the greatest positive impact on AM fungal communities, as they preferentially associate with locally-adapted, robust AM fungal genotypes. 37 An exotic AM fungus may not be as beneficial as locallyadapted isolates, and may reduce plant performance 18 and decrease AM fungal diversity. 55,56 Managing the soil as an ecosystem, rather than a resource, may provide the most beneficial long-term growing conditions.
