Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Conventional tillage microorganisms significantly promoted Trifolium growth.
- Intervention effect No tillage soil inoculum increased plant phosphorus concentration versus conventional tillage inoculum.
- Intervention effect No tillage soil inoculum increased total plant phosphorus content versus conventional tillage inoculum.
- Observation No tillage soil communities produced twofold greater AM fungal hyphal length than conventional tillage communities.
- Mechanism The authors attribute enhanced plant phosphorus uptake to greater hyphal length and changed AM fungal community.
