Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on the Distribution of Endomycorrhizal Fungi in Some Species Root-Plants in BaliMeitini Wahyuni Proborini, Deny Suhernawan YusupPlants growing on poor soils are commonly associated with endomycorrhizal fungi as a mutualism symbiotic. The fungus takes a role on enhancement of the uptake of soil mineral nutrients particularly phosphorus, thereby enhancing host plant vigor. Despite some of Bali areas particularly in Karangasem and Buleleng have poor soil condition, less study on the endomycorrizhal fungi have been undertaken. The … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2017 · 7,492 accessesView PDF Cite
