Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal diversity in wheat agro-ecosystems in Southern Chile and effects of seed treatment with natural products

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are important for P uptake in Andisols cultivated with wheat. We assessed AM fungal diversity in field experiments established with wheat cultivated after AM host plants and non-host plants at three locations of the Araucanía Region. Wheat seed was treated with two...
