- how AM fungi reduce the incidence of disease in plants
- how AM fungi are best used in horticultural production
- best practices for crop inoculation with effective AM strains
- how AM biotechnologies are applicable in tropical crops
- how AM inoculants are useful in soil rehabilitation
- how the negative aspects of human activity on the environment has established a need for research in wealthier countries
- and much more Mycorrhizae in Crop Production is an essential classroom and field resource for academics and researchers working in crop production, plant pathology, microbial ecology, soil science, and the environmental sciences.
