Evolutionary asymmetry in the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis: conservatism in fungal morphology does not predict host plant growth
Although arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are obligate symbionts that can influence plant
growth, the magnitude and direction of these effects are highly variable within fungal genera …
