- Intervention effect Clover-dominant mixtures, particularly C75-G25, had higher leaf chlorophyll content.
- Intervention effect Clover-dominant mixtures, particularly C75-G25, produced the greatest shoot biomass.
- Intervention effect The C75-G25 mixture inoculated with AMF showed the highest shoot C and N concentrations.
- Intervention effect AMF inoculation increased shoot and root C by 7-9%.
- Intervention effect AMF inoculation increased shoot and root N by 20-33%.
- Intervention effect Across monocultures and mixtures, AMF inoculation increased photosynthetic rates by 7.2%.
- Association The reduction in intercellular CO2 concentration was associated with greater C and N concentration.
- Intervention effect AMF inoculation enhanced root network depth, width and surface area by 3.5-28.1% across all treatments.
- Intervention effect AMF inoculation enhanced root network volume by 3.5-28.1% across all treatments.
- Observation Clover provided higher protein, fat and calcium contents in forage.
- Observation Grass provided greater dry matter, phosphorus and potassium in forage.
- Observation Grass provided greater lignin, ADF, NDF and dNDF 48 in forage.
