Functional analysis of the triparticle interaction
May 1, 2021
| Sustainable Agriculture
AABs may play many functional roles in rhizosphere or for AMFs function and such functions may also be a way by which mitigation or adaptation to environmental changes taking place since millions of years and may take place in future as well. Bacterial communities and regulation of critical genes influenced by them can be a decisive factor in successful AMF colonization of plant roots.
