Abstract

S ummary The growth effects of three mycorrhizal Endogone endophytes on tobacco, tomato and maize were examined. The extent of the stimulus obtained depended on nutrient conditions and the subsequent level of infection developed in the root system. Marked stimulation occurred with low phosphate availability and high root infection.
