Does percent root length colonization and soil hyphal length reflect the extent of colonization for all AMF? by HART, Miranda M, READER, Richard J

“…Percent root length colonization may not be an appropriate measure of root colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in all cases. We suggest that AMF…”
