Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Increasing soil bulk density significantly decreased root length and shoot dry weight of Trifolium subterraneum.
- Intervention effect Increasing soil bulk density increased the root diameter of both main axes and first order lateral roots of Trifolium subterraneum regardless of P application.
- Intervention effect Soil compaction to a bulk density of 1.6 significantly decreased the mycorrhizal growth response of Trifolium subterraneum.
- Intervention effect Soil compaction had no significant effect on the fraction of root length containing arbuscules and vesicles in Trifolium subterraneum.
- Intervention effect Total root length colonized by arbuscules, vesicles or intra-radical hyphae decreased significantly as soil compaction increased.
- Association Highly compacted soil had no significant effect on the intensity of internal mycorrhizal colonization of Trifolium subterraneum.
- Association The increased volume concentration of P at high bulk densities was not responsible for the reduced mycorrhizal responses.
