Associations of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and plant species may occur in terrestrial and air environments and need an effective dispersal, which occurs mainly by biotic vectors. Studies on the influence of flying animals on this dispersal are scarce, thus, this study aimed to investigate the role of bats in AMF propagule dispersal and the most frequent means of transport. Analyses were performed in dor...
We investigated the effect of the fungicides Fosetyl-Al and Metalaxyl, recommended for prevention and control of gummosis, on the development of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in Citrus sinensis Osbeck grafted onto C. limon (L.)Burmf. Three experiments were performed in 1990 and 1992, in Casa Branca and Ilha Solteira, State of São Paulo, Brazil, respectively. Root samples were collected after fungicide appl...
