Abstract

• We investigated structural and functional diversity in arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbioses involving three plant species and three AM fungi and measured contributions of the fungi to P uptake using compartmented pots and 33P. The plant/fungus combinations varied in growth and P responses. Flax (...
