Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi biodiversity: prospecting in Southern-Central zone of Chile. A review
The main factors affecting the diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are host plant, environmental characteristics and geographical location. A better understanding of the influence of land use changes on AMF abundance will help in improving their management, leading to improved plant prod...
