Positive association between mycorrhiza and foliar endophytes in Poa bonariensis, a native grass

The interaction between mycorrhiza and leaf endophytes (Neotyphodium sp.) was studied in three Poa bonariensis populations, a native grass, differing significantly in endophyte infection. The association between endophytes and mycorrhizal fungi colonisation was assessed by analysing plant roots coll...

The association between endophytes and mycorrhizal fungi colonisation was assessed by analysing plant roots collected from the field.
