    Pre-inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi increases early nutrient concentration and growth of field-grown leeks under high productivity conditions

    Pre-inoculation of transplants with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi may increase the in-field P uptake through an increased exploitation of the soil volume and, thereby, reduce the need for P fertilizer applicati...

    Beyond the rhizosphere: growth and function of arbuscular mycorrhizal external hyphae in sands of varying pore sizes

    Research on nutrient acquisition by symbiotic arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi has mainly focused on the root–fungus interface and less attention has been given to the growth and functioning of external hypha...
