- Intervention effect At 0.01–0.03 mg/liter phosphorus, VAMF inoculation increased pepper phosphorus uptake.
- Intervention effect At low phosphorus, VAMF inoculation shortened time to anthesis.
- Observation Above 0.4 mg/liter phosphorus, mycorrhizal and nonmycorrhizal plants had similar growth and yields.
- Association More heavily infected transplants produced greater final dry weights and fruit yields in P-deficient soil.
- Mechanism Extensive pretransplant infection improved subsequent growth by shortening establishment of functional mycorrhizal symbiosis.
