Observation At low phosphorus, VAM roots had 13% more shoot dry weight.
Observation At low phosphorus, VAM roots had 15% greater root phosphorus concentration.
Observation At low phosphorus, VAM roots had 30% greater protein concentration.
Observation At low phosphorus, VAM and non-VAM root growth did not differ significantly.
Observation At higher phosphorus, host growth and root phosphorus concentration did not change concurrently.
Association Mycorrhizal colonization declined as soil phosphorus increased.
Intervention effect Formononetin enhanced root colonization by G. intraradices and partly countered high phosphorus inhibition.
Association Root ACP and ALP activity were associated with fungal colonization.
Association ACP activity responded 38% more to soil phosphorus than ALP activity.
Mechanism Authors suggest ACP contributed to soil phosphorus uptake.
Mechanism Authors suggest ALP may be linked to phosphate assimilation or transport.
